I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if Sam and his other ultra-rich buddies like Satya had their fingers deep in the pockets of all the tech journalists that immediately ran to his defense a…

I still can't fathom why people would care in the slightest what their message bubble color was (I mean as a European I don't get iMessage at all, I use Signal and WhatsApp for the less tech…

This is where I get so frustrated with the people dismissing questions about AI safety so easily. Sure, there's the subset of people who seem to believe in the AI apocalypse type of problems, but…

I don't believe that we're gonna have Skynet on our hands (at least not within my lifetime). What I do believe is that as the hype grows for this AI stuff, more and more people are going to …

But don't you realize people can ask for the bot to make a shitty CRUD app for them!?!?! Think of the possibilities!!

Lol as if the gov't having access to it is somehow worse than fucking microsoft having their grubby greedy hands on it? As if they're moral and give a shit about literally anything other t…

Why on earth would I care about some contracts when talking about M$, as if they wouldn't breach any number of contracts if they could get away with it? As far as I'm concerned literally eve…

They'd probably have some legal avenues they could pursue should this happen, but if it did happen, what exactly could M$ do about it? Once it's out in the world, that's it, it'll …

If I met a genie in a magic lamp and had 3 wishes, I'd use all 3 of them up on disintegrating all the FAANGS into dust and making sure nothing like them can ever exist again.

The more cynical side of me views this as a an act orchestrated by the demons... Err, "people" over at Micro$oft in order to avoid all those pesky questions about safety and morality in AI b…

If the board had any balls they'd call them on their bluff. I'd love to see it honestly, a mass resignation like that.

I don't buy into the whole AGI hyper-hypewave, but on the off chance that we're somehow heading towards it with these fancy chatbots we have, what a depressing fucking outcome it's gonn…

The hype wave really is something else, eh? People are suddenly talking as if these advanced chatbots are on the precipice of genuine AGI that can run any system you throw at it, it's absolute lu…

And if you buy those flowery words from a non-technical startup founder, the same one behind fucking Worldcoin , I've got a few bridges to offload quick and on the cheap.

I've never considered this angle, but god it'd be hilarious if this ended up being the case, the dude ruining everything because of his own greed ultimately fucking himself over because of i…

I've always viewed it as more of a hacker's hangout with the unfortunate side-effect of being YC-sponsored being that you sometimes have to put up with some dumb corporate news here and ther…

I had a subscription but found it useless for any actual difficult problem that you can't just find elsewhere online with a bit more effort, and I don't tend to struggle with trivial shit. A…

And I think you overestimate how much people care about CEO/board politicking. Will OpenAI's APIs still exist? Yes? I guarantee you no one other than other CEOs hoping to ride on Sam's …

I didn't comment on whether the tech is good or bad, I just said it's overhyped (and you more or less proved my point). And again, what exactly has Sam himself done to bring about the tech? …

If the rock doesn't have people like Altman and his cult followers, then I'd say it's a cozy spot for me to be in. > The fact that you think “non-technical” people don’t contribute m…

That's the part that gets me, the same people who would react to news of "13,000 employeess laid off" as a brilliant strategic move are the same ones acting as if Sammy boy getting sack…

So the dude with a billion connections managed to use them to get cash for the startup that deals with the most insanely overhyped piece of technology to have ever been created. No mention of the peop…

God I hope this means the c-suites in my company fuck off with the AI bullshit for a bit

Very naive of me, but I'm hoping this all means the death knell of OpenAI, personally.

According to the label, 300ug, even those are pretty strong for me. Never tried higher, since it's always been a strong reaction

I've suffered from insomnia for a long while now, and I despise taking Melatonin (300ug for the people asking, at least according to the label on it). It gives me unnerving dreams - not quite nig…

Whenever I see people talking about how they use ChatGPT to write entire software suites, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills or something. I can't even get GPT4 to give me decent basic ass R…
