    What qualifies this guy to make any predictions that are printable? He’s just making random guesses.

      It’s not random guesses, it’s intentional fictions to make investing in ‘AI’ companies sound like a good idea.

      They think they can lie their way to real AI by convincing investors to pour enough money into them that poof real AI emerges.

      They’re not going to get the poof they’re hoping for.

      Intellectual property thief is confidently wrong about a task he has no right or expertise to be performing anyway. The LLM didn’t fall far from the tree.

      Wasn’t his sister also developmentally disabled? Is that right? CEO Billionaire Sam Altman violently raped his disabled sister then admitted to it like it was a relatable situation?

      I was thinking of a different rich white guy that raped his sister.

      Not every rich white guy, but seemingly always a rich white guy.

      Even if those accusations are false, the man still had a billion dollars while his sister was homeless.

      Odd. I thought he was gay.

      I know there’s no rule saying gay people can’t rape people.

      But for some reason, my brain reacted with “Odd…” 🤔

      There’s actually a pretty long and interesting story behind this. Entire family even wrote a letter discrediting the claims. The claims coincidentally re-started after her bills were no longer getting paid. An apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and we already know Altman has pathological lying disorder

      This is why these claims never really go anywhere because mostly everyone realizes it’s BS

    He looks so fucking clueless and straight up lost. How is this guy a fucking CEO? Or just a useful idiot for others to complete that Ai circlejerk where everyone is dumping billions into each other companies to pump up the stocks?

      How is this guy a fucking CEO?

      Wealthy background. Dropped out, got lucky with a startup and sold his stake for a decent sum, gaining enough momentum to keep failing upward.

      The guy is absolutely clueless, which can be mathematically proven on the basis of the fact that he invested in a crypto firm.

        He didn’t get lucky… him and others bamboozled investors into buying Loopt which was never functional, once sold, it shut down in months. Exactly what he is doing right now

          I wish I had no morals… Life is so easy when you don’t give a single fuck about what you do to others… It’s so infuriating to see how many wealthy people have amazing lives because they simply don’t give a single fuck about anything but themselves.

          Sociopathy is greatly rewarded in this stupid world we live in. :/

          I didn’t really look into what this startup did, but it doesn’t surprise me. Elon Musk has a very similar kind of story, bullshitting his way to being a billionaire. The system is very heavily stacked in favour of dishonest people.

      I just want to be clear, most CEOs aren’t smart. They have a slightly higher median intelligence than the wider population, but by and large CEOs are no more talented than your average used car salesman. While there’s certainly outliers (on both sides), most intelligent people don’t start careers in a field with an 80%+ chance of failure in the first 5 years. Altman’s success in particular is 50% luck, 50% being a very convincing liar. These people aren’t geniuses, they pay people to think for them, which is why having a machine think for them sounds like a great idea.

      A lot of CEO’s could say they have no clue what they’re doing and mostly just ‘faked it till they made it; and still fake it’

    Fuck off Altman. Seriously. It’s unfortunate your dad didn’t hug you enough as a child but you didn’t have to compensate by growing up to be a fuck head. He’s still not going to hug you.

      All the AI ceos are 100% high on their own supply.

      Most CEOs likely are, because it tells them what they want to hear, and they have minions to actually make it work.

      Real people are likely to see the AI is bullshit,but they’re insulated by humans dealing with it
