Reminds me of the time when Elizabeth Holmes had suspected whistleblowers stalked because they talking to journalists about her blood testing machine that 100%, totally worked and was not at all illegitimate and a lie to con stupid VC’s out of billions in cash.

OpenAI firing safety researchers for allegedly sharing information with an outside safety group is certainly one way to demonstrate your commitment to safety. Nothing says trust us quite like making the people worried about the brakes disappear while insisting the car is totally under control.
