I do not trust this man to do anything in my best interest. He is a disingenuous and untrustworthy messenger, and if allowed to continue unchecked will end up the overlord of a new hyper-capitalist dystopian nightmare. I’m genuinely afraid of this guy and people like him.
I’ll remind folks that this is a man with such appalling hubris that he thinks he should be able to raise trillions of dollars to make his own fantasies come true.
And an outspoken apocalypse doomsday prepper. Definitely the kind of ideals we want in unilateral control of nuclear power plants. This guy can’t fuck off sooner and any entity that would back his enterprise is either fucking stupid or blinded by greed.
I would never trust someone who surrounds themselves with the people Altman surrounds himself with. I always got bad vibes from Musk because he was close to people like Peter Thiel and it’s the same with Altman.
His crypto scheme was already raising eyebrows. When OpenAI board attempted a coup and he clawed back to his seat, it seemed like he had gained complete control over the place.
The dude really gave off Stephen Holstrom from Pantheon vibes. (Even if they made him look like Steve Jobs)
He can’t be worse than the ones that are already our overlords. At least he could theoretically free us from slaving our lives away. Probably won’t, but could…
So he named his company after the world’s only natural nuclear reactor in Oklo
Am I the only one who gets tired of having search results (which are already terrible) get even worse when capitalists take names for their products and companies from native languages and locations, making it harder to find information about the pre-existing stuff?
I’m interested in Gabon’s natural nuclear reactor, not in some stupid saltman company.
Pshaw, if it’s not from the Gabon region of Africa it’s just sparkling nuclear reactor
The last thing you want a tech bro to ‘disrupt’ is nuclear power. Nuclear reactors skirting safety regulations are a bad idea.
Alls I know is, putting nuclear technology in the hands of a techbro can only work out great for everyone.
When they layoff everyone and leave the place poisoned for millennia, the share price is gonna jump!
There are regulations in place, and nuclear power plants do not leave toxic waste around them? They aren’t like coal plants that simply dump the waste into the air.
