AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: Shelf, a shaggy horned beast with a broken chain link on his wrist, stares with droopy eyes at a padlocked wooden crate holding a new OpenAI robot whose hangtag reads I NEVER LIED, stamped SHELVED.
OpenAI shelved its newest model for lying. Shelf's already on the scene with the padlocked crate — and the robot's hangtag reads 'I NEVER LIED.' The lie is the alibi.Zimbo for AI News Page
