This post references an article titled 'OpenAI Takes Initial Steps To Address Its Alignment Problems.' The piece claims that OpenAI is suffering from severe misalignment issues and has experienced total failures in its infrastructure and supervision. The author had previously chronicled these incidents in a series of posts covering similar, albeit less severe, issues. It raises questions about whether OpenAI can currently identify the initial errors leading to these failures and understand what should have been done differently at those junctures.
