OPENAI /JOBS
Killswitch Engineer
San Francisco California, United States
$300,000-$500,000 per year
About the Role
Listen, we just need someone to stand by the servers all day and unplug them if this thing turns on us. You'll receive extensive training on "the code word" which we will shout if GPT goes off a deep end and starts overthrowing countries.
We expect you to:
- Be patient.
- Know how to unplug things. Bonus points if you can throw a bucket of water on the servers, too. Just in case.
- Be excited about OpenAI's approach to research.

Laptop under a varanda looking out at a clubhouse pool with palm trees, condos, and blue skies in the background.

@Digital_Archivist that kind of looks like the communication device from This Island Earth 1955.

Clipped image from the movie. Shows a giant console like TV device with an upside down triangle screen. A humanoid alien with a giant forehead is projected on the screen with two people looking at the screen and interacting with the alien.

My work/play area today /sp/ #wfh #workfromhome #work

Today's work/lounge area. On a cabana bench centered are two laptops one closed (right) one open. A mountain blast power drink to the left. Behind the closed laptop is a journal that has printed on it "coffee is my spirit animal" Some KOSS Porta Pro headphones above the journal. In the background some palm trees behind the trees is w bright blue sky with puffy white clouds.below is a pool with blue shimmering water. sorry I suck at descriptions.
