OpenAI boss Sam Altman wants $7tn. For all our sakes, pray he doesn’t get it::The man behind ChatGPT is wooing the UAE to invest in energy-hungry AI. But if it turns out his tech can’t fix the world, he’s got his escape plan
Wake me up when “ai” makes the amount of CO2 in the earth’s atmosphere trend downward. Generative AI is just a way to burn electricity to take value produced by humans and then replace those same humans, all to line the pockets of the companies that can afford to churn all the data in the world.
For the handful of genuinely cool and interesting things it can do, the number of extremely awful costs and externalities is like 1000x worse.
Yes cow farts and leaving the lights on will surely kill us all like, soon
OpenAI runs on Azure, which is carbon neutral.
Oh, bless your heart.
How they achieve this ?
Serious question: why does everyone in silicon valley have a god complex?

Yes.
I’m glad perspectives has stopped treating Sam Altman like a tech God. dude is second coming of every FAANG CEO and Elon combined. there’s no way that guy isnt up to no good.
I get strong “ends justify the means” vibes.
Before he was a thundering asshat at Y Combinator, he started a mobile company that sold your location to brands called Loopt. He’s a piece of work.
I am thinking of getting a tomtom. Tired of my phone trying to throw a fit when I disable location after I’ve figured out my way to my destination.
So much of this advertising economy depends on it and we just give it away.
Socialism for monopolies but not for starving and sick people.
I have no patience for things I’m not interested in: parties, most people. When someone examines a photo and says, ‘Oh, he’s feeling this and this and this,’ all these subtle emotions, I look on with alien intrigue.
Is he describing sociopathy?
Just confirming he has what it takes to be CEO. I wonder if there are other skills or that’s it.
Definitely the guy we want running the company that decides what the human race needs from computers, then.
Is that “it” talking about itself? Then don’t let it bullshit you, it’s trying to communicate, but by being manipulative. So ignore it.
This is a face born to be punched. Much like the Zuckfuck or the Muskrat.
Fuck these people.
They should use that non-creepy picture of him.
Hm? Oh. Oh right.
The US collects about 5 trillion in revenue a year. This fucker wants a budget on the scale of the biggest revenue of a country on earth. That’s more power than the president has. Fuck this guy. Nobody deserves that much trust.
I’m GLAD we don’t Tax him OR his TRILLION dollar company!
All AI needs to be shut the fuck down until it can be properly regulated. Making up the rules as we go is just fucking stupid.
Who are you expecting to regulate it? How are you envisioning those regulations working? Who and how is that getting enforced?
It’s like trying to regulate 3D printing. Sure, you can probably find some agency that can pretend to be in charge, but unless they have monitoring software installed on every 3D printer including consumer and DIY units, they aren’t going to know what anyone does in their basement.
Lol by who? Octogenarian Congress members who get more bribes than emails?
Bruh
I’d be jumping on the ceiling with 700 AUD. The hell is he gonna do with 7000000000000 USD?I’m just sick of seeing his jerkoff face.
Wtf is a tn?
Trillion.
Na you made that up. I’ll stick with ton.
7 tons of dollars
