Yikes, sounds absolutely like a desperate play to maintain relevance. AI is already hemorrhaging money...It would be nice if they could leave teachers and kids alone. These AI chuds need to fail off in the distance without causing any more issues.

The broligarchs must be positively giddy at the prospect of a generation of Americans who are entirely unable to even form a coherent thought.
Why muck about with all the complications of trying to force people into the peasant role of neo-feudalism when you can just destroy public education and gatekeep knowledge and create a populace too dull-witted to envision anything else?
I can’t wait for the bubble to pop and VC Money to dry up because the only thing keeping OpenAI from drowning in their hundreds of millions of dollars in losses are investors giving them money.
hundreds of millions of dollars
Billions of dollars. It is actually insane
I don’t know what kind of insane person keeps giving them money. It reminds me of the 2000 tech bubble on steroids, giving money to companies who don’t even have a solid path to profitability.
Even scarier is what if these investments all pay off
Khan Academy's had ChatGPT (Khanmigo) baked into it for nearly three years.
A solution in search of a problem
The worst situation is for underdeveloped countries (that have access to the Internet).
openai desperately needs people to buy thier services, because they are losing money. apparently ALTMAN met his husband through PETER thiel at one of thier "get to gethers"
