It's not really AI we're talking, they haven't achieved an artificial Intelligence. The sooner we realize that, the sooner this overhype dies and we don't end up with another massively over-valued trillion-dollar company.
It's funny how no one sees it. Sam Altman is a "successful" entrepreneur, yet he never had a successful company. He made loopt, a defunct company which raised serious money at the time, and then he suddenly made it to YC as a partner. He, then, quickly rose through the ranks to become president of YC. Think of that for a second.
OpenAI is a company that can barely ship a functioning website, or have proper security for basic stuff. You'd not expect this company to be the future of AI, do you? OpenAI is not doing anything particularly special compared the LLM we have out there except they were a bit ahead and they spent more money on training. Other LLMs are catching up fast in a very short period of time.
Sam Altman is a master of pump&dump. He is very successful at creating hype and based on the number of people here who thinks OpenAI is the legit future of AI, I'd say he is pretty damn good at it too. See you in 5 years.

In case you didn't know: ML researchers are infamous for being bad at traditional software engineering.
That's why, I personally don't think whether a company can "proper security for basic stuff" has much correlation with probability of achieving AGI.
