Antti Rasinen @ars.iki.fi · 09/09/2026I’ve now thought about this and find that even if OpenAI did nothing wrong, they still acted like jerks. I’ve seen plays and movies with villains like these.

Abumrad replied she was on a vaccine research team but it was expensive and they were still seeking grants. When Dolly heard this she replied "Well I have money" and donated $1m. Abumrad's team produced the Moderna vaccine. 204029570
