    There will be a daily call for those tasked
    with improving the chatbot, the memo said,
    and Altman encouraged temporary team transfers
    to speed up development.
Truly brilliant software development management going on here. Daily update meetings and temporary staff transfers. Well known strategies for increasing velocity!

What if they make 2 daily calls, that would surely improve the velocity by 2 times!

I've had ideas for how to improve all the different chatbots for like 3 years, nobodys has implemented any of them (usually my ideas get implemented in software somehow the devs read my mind, but AI seems to be stuck with the same UI for LLMs), none of these AI shops are ran by people with vision it feels like. Everyone's just remaking a slightly better version of SmarterChild.
