And yet he hasn't self-murdered, so he's lying. This is not his opinion. I can't imagine why he thinks this will get him money, but who knows, maybe it will.
edit: Maybe he's waiting for an AI good enough to download his brain into.... anybody ever thought of just lying to him?
Modern people have no balls, this man should be burned at the stake
Honestly, if I were on the jury of the murder trial of his killer, and the killer claimed self defense, I would vote not guilty.
Why exactly isn't it self defense to kill someone trying to build a machine to destroy the world?
He sexually assaulted his sister too.
Why are such pos allowed to be in charge of anything?
Does this guy never just shut the fuck up?
Every day I see "Sam Altmann says".
Go and have a steamy sex shower with Elon and just fuck off.
"CEO says" journalism. Gives these morons so much attention.
He didn't say that.
This article is based on an essay Altman wrote 9 years ago where he claims that humanity's only hope of survival is to merge with AI and transcend into a new, transhuman species.
Look, I fucking hate Sam Altman. He represents everything that's wrong with the Tech industry, and is also a pretty good example of everything that's wrong with capitalism writ large. Sam sucks. He lies, he cheats, he steals. But lying about Altman does not help the anti-AI cause. It just muddies the message and gives bad actors more shit to stir. And besides... it's not like we have to make shit up about the guy to make him look bad. There's SO much crazy shit he actually did say that you can point to instead.
I'm reporting this postto the mods as misinformation, and I hope others do too. AI sucks. Sam sucks. But we have to tell the truth, or we're no better than they are.
do you meant to tell me that real time tech apocalypse dot com isn’t a trusted news source?
There was a tech CEO who explicitly said he wanted humanity to die off, I just can't remember who it was
Edit: It was Peter Thiel if I'm not mistaken
Ai psychosis. Never get high on your own supply.
No, he’s just a salesman who has something to sell and he is working hard to sell it. “Humanity will die out unless you buy my product!”
He also has competition so he needs to stay relevant, which is why he makes these grand statements that get media attention.
Please use one of the countless templates that doesn’t involve a fucking creep.
I don't listen to pop music, what did he do?
Absolutely fair call and noted.
Use the one with the sunglasses girl far superior version. Yes I am just saying that cause she's wearing aviators.
Yeah I think I know the one. I honestly don't know anything about Drake really beyond the name. I don't listen to his music etc or have any idea what he may have done. But I know you definitely don't put any sort of celebrity on a pedestal. They're just people after all.
Sometimes I’m surprised how many meme templates are based on celebrities I find distasteful.
Bourgeoisie extinction is the best case solution.
It's the dream utopian solution.
To finally exsanguinate the hydra of greed and evil, just before humanity's dying breath, like a true underdog legend;
This is just insane speculative babbling, you could just as well make the exact same argument for genetically designed mutations.
It's just bullshit that we MUST fuse with digital machinery to survive, and in no way is relevant at this point.
Because we simply don't have the technologies to make it an attractive proposal, and we are very far from it.
Arguing we should fuse our minds with strong AI, is essentially arguing that we should allow our minds to be partially controlled and constantly influenced by this fused AI.
That looks like the first step of becoming like Borgs from Star trek, that end up losing their individuality.
IMO Sam Altman can just go fuck himself, he doesn't know shit about what he is talking about. He just has "visions" probably induced by toxic vapors or something with similar effect.
Yeah, let's just kill him instead
Extinction is the default, you dolt. We were trying to see if we could get a different outcome rather than the default.
These people are not clever.
They are brilliant morons.
The billionaires are out for blood. Tought you guys should know.
Old news. check out this interview with Warren Buffet from 20 years ago, in the New York Times.. https://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/26/business/yourmoney/26every.html
Always have been. They just want to play god among men a few more times before they run into their bunkers and end times yachts, and their idea of god is the Old Testament one, where it’s disdainful, demands fealty, is cruel, uncaring, vengeful, requires constant sacrifices to the already stripped down servants, and constant adulation in the form of chants, statues, regailings that hail them as superior and well loved.
It's hilariously sad because it all hinges on them somehow keeping complete control over everyone after all the systems that brought them to the level of wealth they have will be broken and gone. They fail to understand that they succeeded in a system where they didn't have to fear someone cutting their head off to take their place as the new leader of the bunker or will just cut off their head and just fucking leave the bunker behind with their corpse left rotting all alone. When all rules and order are out of the window, they are 100% reliant on their precious technology to continue being in control. All it takes is a failure of ONE of those systems for it to all come crashing down and for their head of security to become a new local warlord. They literally are textbook definitions of "hubris."
Only Zuckerberg actually seems to be considering that aspect in terms of his physical training and fighting training. I wouldn't be surprised if he's also had extensive firearms training, honestly. Out of all of them I can see him having the self-discipline to actually learn the skills he would need to survive after retreating to a bunker. He may still come off like a robot, but he's clearly a little bit more put together than the rest of them, who are either roided out freaks like Bezos or idiots like Musk who couldn't even get roided up correctly because he's so fucking lazy.
The problem with zuck is you have to have a community to survive any situation where the systems break down, and he’s not likable enough or social enough to stay in or properly form a community. He made his money with an antisocial hot girl rating site that turned into apps that fed off making people insecure and scared constantly so they’d forever doom scroll. He is incapable of defending himself from multiple tribes simultaneously, including his own.
Oh absolutely, but the fact that he can listen to experts means he may just be willing enough to listen to experts and do some socially ingratiating things even if he as a person doesn't actually care about them. Zuck is an evil asshole, but I don't actually think he's stupid.
You go first, bro
We will have a chance of survival after we eat the rich
And here I thought Ted Faro from Horizon Zero Dawn was bad writing.
Wow, and I thought I was the only one who actually thought Aloy was really pretty but also didn't understand the accolades for the writing which seemed very one note and had flat character development.
“The only way we can save humanity is to buy my product!”
He’s not warning us, he’s threatening us.
Many billionaires want the world to become unstable, to have civilisation collapse while they are chilling in their massive bunker. Then to rebuild the world the way they like after that. It's why they are all building these huge bunker complexes on Hawaii and New Zealand, among other places.
Evangelicals same thing. They believe in a prophecy claiming the end of the world will come after a conflict in the middle east between the Jewish and Islamic groups, causing global nuclear destruction. The apocalypse. When that happens, Jesus will return and they will all go to heaven. So they actively want this to happen, so they can go to heaven. And super influencial people already have been very close to the US nuclear launch key. They collect money for Israel to support their war, even though they don't like jews, but it is an attempt to make their prophecy come true.
These people are complete nut jobs and extremily dangerous. They have people in very high places. Also, how would they go to heaven if they support violence, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Jesus said "do no harm" right? They are so fucking dumb yet a very serious threat to many, if not all.
Capitalism is a death cult
So should we extinct you to spare ourselves?
Sounds like he didn't get the message with the first few Molotov cocktails.
BUT not HIS Extinction so PLEASE make sure to ONLY use your Pitchforks on Mothers and Children!
-Republicans on Welfare!
