Same, I think that people in tech underestimate how any people will be. It'll bring down the industry

I don't get why they are trying so hard to keep this from the front page, they're doing everything they can to nerf it. It's all over the internet at this point.

He's in a lot of trouble if OpenAI shows how stupid this has been.
The company was a non profit all of one week ago

How will OpenAI cover its heavy spending? It wants the government to help

It's interesting because if Trump falls for this, at it fuels an even bigger bubble than is already going and Fed can't lower interest rates, then it will destroy his part in the midterms. If he can't bring down costs and interest rates people are going to freak out, that's clear from the polls. Where most people in the country are at in the moment is a precarious one step away from ruin while watching prices going and interest rates stay. That's not Sam's reality but most people are struggling and if Sam hordes all the resources to him, people are going to revolt.
Either it is going to start generating astonishing levels of profit soon like they claim and they wouldn't need it or they are a money furnace and this is the only thing that will save this from collapse

You don't seem to be very clear on US politics if you think there is nothing extraordinary about their rise on the political stage, a rise driven in large part by desperation from Gen Z.

It's quite then progression isn't it?

But Fuentes can be described like this:

"The Nazi in question here, podcaster Nick Fuentes, has described Adolf Hitler as “really fucking cool” and said “perfidious Jews” must “be given the death penalty” after “we take power.”"

Just look at the Mamdani state run grocery stores and you'll see that in there own way, each of these are huge steps outside the mainstream.

OpenAI Hypocrisy on Paying for IP

"The stance that nobody had to pay anything for the IP used to train ChatGPT, but that OpenAI may nonetheless be entitled to shares of the profits earned from ChatGPT's outputs, presumably on IP grounds — what can you do but laugh, really?" https://x.com/OsitaNwanevu/status/1986172916241768605

Lower interest rates would alleviate a lot of the crisis. The bubble has meant that interest rates have been artificially high.

I know you think it's a joke, but look who is rising, Mamdani and Fuentes, outer bounds of the political possible just keep expanding. And they're just a gentle preview of what is to come. Either way at the end you'll either end up with literal Nazis or literal Bolsheviks.

Bubble needs to be destroyed before it destroys the country

If it doesn't pop it is going to consume the country, the economic effects will create political ramifications that will make the United States unrecognizable (more so) Since the Fed started hiking interest rates a substantial part of the country has been in a serious financial downturn. Now with the shut down it is becoming a crisis of food as well. It's been invisible because the massive...

They aren't satisfied with the ridiculous percentage they're already consuming they want our public money too. Silicon Valley is evil. I genuinely hate them for what they are doing to our economy and how it is hurting normal Americans.

These guys are so evil. They have to take all our money, they aren't satisfied with the ridiculous percentage they're already consuming they want our public money too. Silicon Valley is evil. I genuinely hate them for what they are doing to our economy and how it is hurting normal Americans.

It does that sometimes. Might have to wait a few hours before it will save properly. Sorry

Not really smart thing to do, to antagonize a dude who take 3 trillion off your valuation with a tweet but let's see what happens.
It won't
