It’s Time to Stop Taking Sam Altman at His Word theatlantic.com/technology/arc The guy is overhyping technology with Nvidia and Microsoft to sell something impossible, like AGI. They all have a similar goal: to make more money while destroying the planet and jobs.

Add AGI to the list of self-driving cars any day. 😂 He is looking to sell Openai at a peak price. That is how he makes money. Tech bros are hyping him because they are directly or indirectly invested in OpenAI. It is basically a giant tech scam with stolen data to train their shity LLM without paying artists or writers.

@nixCraft once upon a time speculation did not realise gains until the asset/intellectual property being speculated upon was converted into a product that could be sold. Altman has made speculation the product.

@nixCraft I hate it but you're right. OpenAI may have started with more noble goals, but one should never forget that Sam played a part in Y Combinator as well. Selling a dream is par for the course.

@nixCraft I don’t think that is possible with the current structure of OpenAI, but apart from this, yeah, he is full of shit!

@nixCraft Well, actually it's a giant shell game. And investors are guessing where the pea is.

@nixCraft Totally agree. Event with that data, those llm can't produce something really "new". Just a hype, will wait with some popcorn to see them fail bad.
