Sam Altman always rubbed me the wrong way. He always seemed like he was trying to be the "humble" Steve Jobs - just as tyrannical and stubborn, but he was doing it "to better humanity" with AI. I call bullshit, he's just another tech billionaire asshole.
With all these billionaires popping up how do we keep forgetting that the guillotine exists?
I get what you're saying, but he is definitely not humble. He thinks he's going to invent a super-intelligent AGI within the next ten years and solve all of humanity's problems. He is dangerously arrogant! More like he is/was pretending to be an altruist - but now that the company has been converted to a for-profit I hope the mask has slipped sufficiently for all to see what he really is.
When he got kicked out by the board I was quite happy, literally “omg they’re actually going to follow their principles” but then nope. Apparently nobody in the company could see it for what it was and people outside didn’t want their “chatbot to go away!”
I'm not convinced he really believes that OpenAI is going to roll out AGI in the next ten years, but I'm completely sure he's determined that it's a good marketing strategy to make people believe that he believes it.
Dumbass companies gonna dumbasscompanize. They were probably instructed to “plow ahead” by McKinsey.
