Industry-critical narrative

OpenAI is drip feeding knowledge of its products engaging in dangerous, and sometimes criminal, activity and expects applause for finally developing a reporting framework several years after its products reached the open market. It is clear that AI development is wildly out of control under the guise of voluntary commitments, and regulatory intervention cannot come sooner.
