> Automated AI research is a more dramatic form of scaling intelligence with compute; and of course as a part of it, AI will improve the computational substrate itself .

This seems like a terrible idea. The rationale seems to be "we need to do dangerous things as quickly as possible so that we can do them first" or something? I don't agree with that kind of 'if i dont do it someone else will' rationale in general even for otherwise trusted actors, but this is coming from a super untrustworthy org too. I'm super pessimistic about openai's impact on the world here.
