can outlets please stop echoing every stupid thing this man says? we all know he is lying (including him) he is just pushing a very specific narrative. covering him just helps him spread his AI gospel
By posting this type of shit you are building his platform and legitimizing his opinion.
You are an enabler of one of the most privileged, selfish, and arrogant pieces of shit alive.
Stop.
This goes for OP and Futurism.
People like Altman live by the saying “No press is bad press”, by both ways you can interpret it:
- There’s no such thing as bad press; and
- Not being in the press is bad.
Even if ragebait/engagement-bait. In the end it only legitimizes him.
And I get that by responding I’m also engaging, but I see this type of comment as more of an “investment” than an “engagement”.
Fuck Sam Altmam
Stop posting things CEOs say they are pathological liars.
Fuck you, Sam.
I cant wait until he’s out of the public eye. I cant even laugh at the dumb shit he says cuz its not even funny, it’s just dumb!
Pathologising life as mental health problems isn’t cool anymore?
Somewhere in the forest there exists a tree planted just to replace the oxygen Sam Altman wastes. He should find it and apologize.
There was a tree. It was cut down to make way for a data center.
The colony of phytoplankton in the Atlantic Ocean too
Thiel has his voodoo doll.
“I could easily afford to do that 5 years ago,” Billionaire says of people trying to live their lives within their budgets.
“You need to understand that Sam [Altman] can never be trusted.” “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”
-Aaron Swartz
I’m surprised that Altman was relevant enough to comment on when Swartz was still alive
Altman was at ycombinator along with Aaron
What would be cool is you turning into a corpse Sam.
Saying “you don’t need your own RAM” is the “let them eat cake” of this generation
“You need to understand that Sam [Altman] can never be trusted.” “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”
-Aaron Swartz
He actually said that?
He didn’t actually say that, He said that it was terrible for people to have their own dram barely being used most of the time when supply is limited and that having ram in data center better distributes ram resources through the cloud.
This is still bad because he’s basically saying people should be forced to use their service but a lot of people have been misquoting him
But we could share in communities. We can do it locally. I can say to my neighbor, “Hey, my GPU is cold half the time, do you want to set up a shared host to split the load?” It’s still a solution, but it’s bottom-up. Yes, it would be more work, and a little less convenient. But the idea that only private corporations have the solution to this is not realistic. It’s a question of priorities.
That fucker should go strip it out of the warehouses full of old corporate workstations then.
Agreed
How is this a rebuttal? It sounds like he definitely said what people claim he said. The only issue here is putting a paraphrased statement in quotes, but I can forgive that since the message didn’t change.
Its not a rebuttal I just think misquoting is potentially dangerous.
Well, I don’t like it when people sanewash billionaire greed, and you defended his logic around “utilization” as if it were a good point.
I’m not sanewashing greed, I’m saying it how it is and specific stated why I didn’t like it. Its greedy and I never justified it
Live your life as an inverse Altman. What ever he says, do the opposite.
what he says comes out of both ends, so no change.
Sam Altman sounds like an anal fissure with a mouth.
