I never thought that this would be possible but here we are. Sounds hell of a lot like Freddie, but I'm not too sure what's going on with the instruments.
Obviously Freddie can't fend for himself, but are artists not copyrighted against ai use yet?
The Toxicity cover that the Freddie-AI cover had as backing is not very good, at least I found it to be really boring, so I didn't care for that cover. The Don't Stop Believing cover just used the original as backing, so nothing interesting there.
In both cases the original singer's voice was just replaced with Freddie's timbre, so these don't sound anything like what it would have sounded if sung by Freddie. It just sounds like 'what if Steve Perry's voice sounded like Freddie's voice', and same with whatever the other singer's name is.
It there was an itch to be scratcehd, it remains unscratched.

Die white girls, die white girls
It sounds like Freddie but doesn't sound like Freddie, I know what you mean. It's pretty boring but pretty amazing at the same time, that this is possible.
Nearly 500 employees of OpenAI have signed a letter saying they may quit and join Sam Altman at Microsoft unless the startup's board resigns and reappoints the ousted CEO
That's 500 out of their 700 employees. Guess Ilya burnt it all to the ground from Friday to Monday and now the employees are turning on him.
The deal for Sam Altman to return was a real thing and was almost in place last night. The interim CEO was behind it, but Ilya derailed it according to TheVerge. As a consequence and Sam and Greg joined Microsoft this morning, and seems a good chunk of the staff are already following him and Greg to Microsoft today, oh and the interim CEO was replaced with the guy from Twitch... 3 CEO's in the span of 2 business days.
The way it is going right now OpenAI might not even exist when we get to 2024.

Sam Altman was reinstated late Tuesday as OpenAI’s chief executive, the company said, successfully reversing his ouster by OpenAI’s board last week after a campaign waged by his allies, employees and investors.
The company’s board of directors will be overhauled, jettisoning several members who had opposed Mr. Altman. Adam D’Angelo, the chief executive of Quora, will be the only holdover.

So what do you all think will be the effect of this saga on AI? Will it affect the financial backing of OpenAI? 4 CEO's in the span of 4 business days might work for start-up in a garage, it's extremely damaging for a multi billion dollar company. Will the ouster of the non-profit, take-it-slow, effective altruism board members ensure that AI development will go even faster now?
To me, this whole thing could be made into the 7th season of Silicon Valley

@Grizlas I'm out of MidJourney and Dall-E credits (those disappear freaking fast. About to get it on a paid subscription though the University though), but my prompt would be something like:
Poster in the style of the tv show Silicon Valley with Sam Altman as Erlich Bachman, Greg Brockman as Nelson Bighetti, Ilya Sutskever as Richard Hendricks, Emmett Shear as Jared Dunn and Mira Murati as Monica Hall. Also add Elon Musk as Russ Hanneman and Satya Nadella as Gavin Belson.
Another fun tidbit, one of the first things OpenAI did under the leadership of Greg was a Dota 2 bot, he is definitely Bighead or Dinesh.
