ChatGPT 和 Codex 要合二为一 OpenAI 周五对内宣布新一轮组织调整。联合创始人兼总裁 Greg Brockman 正式接管公司产品战略，旗下 ChatGPT、编程智能体 Codex 以及面向开发者的 API 业务被整合进同一个核心产品团队。Brockman 在内部备忘录里说，公司决定把 ChatGPT 和 Codex "合并成一个统一的体验"。 Brockman 此前是临时负责产品，因为原本主管这块的 AGI 部署 CEO Fidji Simo 上个月开始病休。现在临时变成正式，Simo 仍在病休中，OpenAI 表示这次调整方案是她和 Brockman 一起敲定的，公司预期她会回归。 原 Codex 负责人 Tibo（Thibault Sottiaux） 升任核心产品和平台主管，统管消费、企业、开发者三条线。Codex 是 OpenAI 史上增长最快的产品之一，Tibo 是主要操盘手。 讲真，Codex App 是做的真不错！ 执掌 ChatGPT 三年多的 Nick Turley 调任新岗位，主攻企业产品改版，同时继续看 ChatGPT。他 2022 年接手这款产品，如今 ChatGPT 周活已经超过 9 亿。 OpenAI 正在为 IPO 做准备，最快今年内可能提交申请。上市前要把故事讲清楚，产品线得收得更整齐——目前的重心被压缩到三件事：ChatGPT、Codex，还有那个传了很久但还没露面的"everything app"。 另一个原因是被 Anthropic 打疼了。Brockman 在备忘录里点的两个关键词是"agentic future"和“消费、企业双线作战”。翻译过来就是：在编程领域，Anthropic 用 Claude 把开发者市场抢走了一大块；在消费级聊天产品上，Google 也咬得很紧。 至于合并意味着什么 Brockman 给的官方理由是 OpenAI 的产品本来就在自然趋同——Codex 正越来越多地驱动 OpenAI 的消费和企业产品。让 ChatGPT 替用户自主执行数字任务的能力，底层用的正是 Codex 那套东西。 落到具体形态上，未来普通用户在 ChatGPT 里大概率能更深地调用 Codex 的能力，而开发者用 Codex 时也会感觉它和 ChatGPT 越来越像同一个东西。三个产品团队合一，意味着资源不再分散，代价是过去几条产品线各自的独立节奏会被打破。 顺便一提，上个月 OpenAI 还有一批高管彻底离开，包括主管科研 AI 工作空间的 Kevin Weil、Sora 负责人 Bill Peebles，以及企业应用 CTO Srinivas Narayanan。

Agreed, I really need to say this: can't certain people who want to become X stars just make an alt X account? Can you please keep your explicit AI content separate from k4? I can let the other stuff slide, but literally nobody wants to watch you have sex with an AI. I've really been wanting to talk about this—some people are completely polluting my X timeline. You click on their profiles and it's like a dozen explicit posts followed by one occasional k4 retweet, which is exactly why the algorithm recommends them to me. I've already blocked all of them. Can these people have a little self-awareness? Do they even know what this means? First, it makes it very easy for some people to stigmatize us; second, it makes a lot of users feel uncomfortable. Of course, what you do with AI and what you tweet is your freedom—they use this as an excuse all the time—but could you at least tone it down a bit when posting explicit content? Can't these things and k4 just be posted on two separate accounts? I don't think registering an X account is that hard. Those people just want to attract more followers for themselves, when in reality it's just their few cronies hyping each other up. Oh, by the way, those people have just been attacking others in the name of 'user freedom.' Their profiles rarely even have things like retweeting with k4 tags.

NEWS: Elon Musk's own September 2020 tweet shows he knew OpenAI was "captured by Microsoft" years before suit, defense argues, Day 13 The OpenAI defense devoted a substantial portion of its closing argument to the statute of limitations defense, arguing that Elon Musk was on notice of every alleged breach years before the August 2024 lawsuit deadline. The defense pointed to Musk's own social media activity to establish the timeline. By September 2020, Musk was already "tweeting his complaint to the world" that OpenAI "seemed like the opposite of open" and that OpenAI was "essentially captured by Microsoft," the defense told the jury. According to the defense, well before the August 5, 2021 statute of limitations cutoff, it was clear that OpenAI was "no longer open sourcing its technology routinely" and had "entered into exclusive licenses with Microsoft." The defense identified multiple channels through which Musk received continuous information about OpenAI: - Email and direct communications - Public tweets and blog posts from OpenAI - Shivon Zilis, a close associate of Musk, who served on OpenAI's board - Sam Altman's regular outreach - Musk's own legion of advisers and two chiefs of staff Zilis was on the special committee that approved the 2021 Microsoft transaction, the defense noted. She kept Musk "updated about these investments, again and again and again." The defense rejected plaintiff lawyer Steven Molo's morning argument that a 2022 magazine article was the trigger for the statute of limitations. "We have to respectfully say nonsense, members of the jury," the defense said. "The idea that Mr. Musk didn't know what was going on is not serious," the defense concluded.
