Comment by Zoë Hitzig

Former OpenAI researcher; economist and poet; Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows
I resigned from OpenAI on Monday. The same day, they started testing ads in ChatGPT. OpenAI has the most detailed record of private human thought ever assembled. Can we trust them to resist the tidal forces pushing them to abuse it?

AI Verified Multiple independent sources reproduce the exact post and attribute it to Zoë Hitzig/@zhitzig. El Observador embeds the X post with the verbatim text and attribution to “Zoë Hitzig (@zhitzig),” dated February 11, 2026 (lines 87-93). TechNews shows the same embedded text and attribution (lines 126-132), and Techmeme lists the full post under “Zoë Hitzig / @zhitzig” (line 136). The quoted excerpt matches the post verbatim, except that it omits the final sentence (“I wrote about better options for @nytopinion”), which is an allowable omission.
