    The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling - their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability.

    The danger of AI is that most people are too stupid for it, an AK40 in the hand of an 3 years old. There isn’t any positive or really needed use for an private user (or greedy govs)

      The problem I keep thinking about with AI is that it’s being done in the stupidest possible way.

        For the reasons I said. The difference between an average Human and an animal is that we have an iPhone and produce waste, apart to make the worst and most stupid their leaders. Most people are the missing link between Homo Erectus and Homo Sapiens

    Look at the fear and uncertainty entering his eyes. He’s realizing he’s pushed his bullshit about as far as it can go and the investors are starting to wonder when it’s going to become profitable, so he’s bullshitting even more desperately now to try to keep them hooked.

      There’s some thought that these AI bros bought in to the AI caricature of Pascal’s wager. That if they don’t try to make AI happen it will torture them forever in the future.

      If so, it just shows that they all aren’t as intelligent as they believe themselves to be.

        Logic and Reason are the masks for what in reality are ego and feelings.

        Influence is also tied to just how confident you can sell a statement and not whether it is correct or not.

    This isn’t entirely a novel idea. This has been an academic goal for computing for decades.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_computing#History

    The term grid computing originated in the early 1990s as a metaphor for making computer power as easy to access as an electric power grid. The power grid metaphor for accessible computing quickly became canonical when Ian Foster and Carl Kesselman published their seminal work, “The Grid: Blueprint for a new computing infrastructure” (1999). This was preceded by decades by the metaphor of utility computing (1961): computing as a public utility, analogous to the phone system.

    It sounds to me like he’s just envisioning his product being a special case of that concept.

      I think that goes without saying. People like Altman, Musk and all their modern silicone valley tech bro generation, combined, have never even shat out a unique looking turd. They are ironically the very anti-thesis of “intelligence” and "human.

    Gary Marcus has a substack called Marcus on AI. He’s well versed on AI and his insights into the field, especially the work of OpenAI and Anthropic, are required reading if you’re concerned about this field. What he’s uncovering and writing about is disturbing.

    Remember those three hours in January 2025 when it was BIG NEWS that this guy raped his little sister when she was three, and then the story disappeared, and people who didn’t happen to see the news that morning don’t know about it?

      Altman says the dumbest shit. He seems like such an imbecile. He tries so hard to sound smart too. Like answering “we’re out of electrons”, to the question “why not build more gpus?”
