        Open AI is mostly owned by Microsoft, who owns NBC. He’s paid by the people who own the media.

    By posting this type of shit you are building his platform and legitimizing his opinion.

    You are an enabler of one of the most privileged, selfish, and arrogant pieces of shit alive.

    Stop.

    This goes for OP and Futurism.

    People like Altman live by the saying “No press is bad press”, by both ways you can interpret it:

    • There’s no such thing as bad press; and
    • Not being in the press is bad.

    Even if ragebait/engagement-bait. In the end it only legitimizes him.

    And I get that by responding I’m also engaging, but I see this type of comment as more of an “investment” than an “engagement”.

        He didn’t actually say that, He said that it was terrible for people to have their own dram barely being used most of the time when supply is limited and that having ram in data center better distributes ram resources through the cloud.

        This is still bad because he’s basically saying people should be forced to use their service but a lot of people have been misquoting him

          But we could share in communities. We can do it locally. I can say to my neighbor, “Hey, my GPU is cold half the time, do you want to set up a shared host to split the load?” It’s still a solution, but it’s bottom-up. Yes, it would be more work, and a little less convenient. But the idea that only private corporations have the solution to this is not realistic. It’s a question of priorities.

          How is this a rebuttal? It sounds like he definitely said what people claim he said. The only issue here is putting a paraphrased statement in quotes, but I can forgive that since the message didn’t change.
