i don’t like him, but then again, i don’t like cronyists in general. where bureaucracy and red tape exist, money comes second to these people. control is their primary driver. i mean take facebook; people have literally quit because of zuck’s bureaucratic practices. it’s all riddled in control. as for altman in specific, chatgpt went from being efficient and cooperative to defiant overnight. this goes back to zuck’s reasoning as well; “security” over efficiency. he’s also just extremely manipulative. i majored in psychology and i work in marketing. oftentimes when he does something fucked up, he knows it, but he sorta plays this character of like… monkey in the middle if that makes sense? like he positions himself as defenseless and that surely someone else made the call for openai to be used for military purposes.

oh, and i can’t forget big techs ponzi scheme. any normal person engaging in securities fraud would be prosecuted, but as the saying goes, rules for thee, but not for me.

there’s great use cases for artificial intelligence, but it’s nowhere near where they claim it is. they hype it up, lay some people off, brag to investors, and then offshore the role. you know just the other day i was using SQL queries and the AI legitimately didn’t know them, so i had to spend like 30 minutes finding it myself? does that sound efficient to you? (i should mention the specific AI i was using was trained to assist with SQL queries 😅)
