These American oligarchs need to get a fucking grip, get under control, and get taxed.

We saw the, "Trust Us" posters already. Jesus. These fuckers watched a bunch of dystopian movies and were like, "I want to be like that!" Others: The good guys right? Them: Yes, the "good" guys. Others: That was a weird stress on good.

So the journalist in question could easily be replaced by a transcription machine or AI itself

I assume you have some kind of a macro for this comment?

Sam Altman said we will soon encase the solar system in a Dyson sphere. Why wouldn't I take his word for it?

“We are building a terrible thing. We are not entirely sure how it works. Trust us, we won’t screw it up.”

Aside from our status in a post-truth world (thank you very much you freaks who took over academia since the 60s), journalism is now mostly entertainment (think Amerca Has Talent but selecting talking heads) and in any case with integrity in low supply a desired view "expert" can always be found.

These guys are so overinflated. “The thing we created is so great it can kill us all” is either scary or bullshit. Unplug the shit, jeez.

Jeff's toy newspaper is right there to eat some shit for the oligarchs, flushing the reputation of a once legendary newspaper, one vapid lane-brained dopey stale article after another. But just like the federal government, they only have one boss.

Fear the product not it's maker..got it

"should trust leaders" bsky.app/profile/karl...

technically in the anthropic hack they didn't bother to even ensure a third party contractor had kept it properly contained, OR monitor it in real time!

Don't follow leaders. Watch the parking meters.

Ronan Farrow called Altman a pathological liar. Listening to him is following the Pied Iper off a cliff.

The headlines on these do not do the attempted narrative justice. Sam wants regulation of OTHER peoples' companies, not his. It is a not so veiled attempt to get the government to protect him from competition. Would be great if that was called out.

Sam "Trust-Me-Bro" Altman

The hard and fast rule is never trust them.

Very good.

And published by washpo, no conflict there

Weird to say “Trust me! I am here to kill you!” out loud.

alt-man and musk are the last two "leaders" anyone should trust. They are both famous for their ability to lie without thinking, as if they were republican politicians.

define "leader", bc i don't think having the title of, say, "CEO" or "POTUS" actually confers leadership qualities or abilities. in many cases those are people acting as managers, not leaders.

Unless you’re a tech partisan, in which case it’s OK to mock and criticize the leader of the rival.
