can outlets please stop echoing every stupid thing this man says? we all know he is lying (including him) he is just pushing a very specific narrative. covering him just helps him spread his AI gospel
“You need to understand that Sam [Altman] can never be trusted.” “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”
-Aaron Swartz
I’m surprised that Altman was relevant enough to comment on when Swartz was still alive
Altman was at ycombinator along with Aaron
Saying “you don’t need your own RAM” is the “let them eat cake” of this generation
“You need to understand that Sam [Altman] can never be trusted.” “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”
-Aaron Swartz
He actually said that?
Nothing screams disruptive innovation like a billionaire scolding young people for not being excited enough about the technology making entry level jobs disappear. Apparently Gen Z should stop chasing what was cool five years ago and start chasing whatever Sam Altman needs investors to believe is cool this quarter.

Late stage capitalism elite psychopaths: “The peasants should welcome our totalitarian dystopia, devoid of cake”

I will say, as an old and fat and gay millennial, Gen Z actually does make me optimistic with this trend I noticed of a lot of them rejecting newer tech and going more analog.
I even know a few who tossed out their smartphones for dumbphones and some of my other Gen Z friends asked me for help on how to burn CDs.
I dunno, with how bad things are these days, this is something that gives me hope.
Millennials need to stick with supporting Gen-Z. I feel like as people start inheriting money, or choosing to use destructive tech like AI, the media is going to get better and better at dividing Millennials. Elder Millennials are most at risk of splitting off.
I don’t want us to get to a point where Gen Alpha hates Millennials. Millennials are very good at rejecting media programming and trying to break systemic cycles, hopefully that’s our thing, and the next generations can steer the ship somewhere better than boomers did.
What a piece of shit
Bro you forgot to attribute the quote properly.
“What a piece of shit” - Altmans Mom, on behalf of the 99%
Somewhere in the forest there exists a tree planted just to replace the oxygen Sam Altman wastes. He should find it and apologize.
There was a tree. It was cut down to make way for a data center.
Saying that a whole generation of people are lame and then having one of the lamest pictures in the history of humanity taken of yourself, ok
I read lamest picture and my mind immediately jumped here
This one is basically impossible to top.
It’s funny because if he had actually turned into a cool person I bet this would retroactively have become a kind of fun campy picture. But really it’s just a reminder of what a disappointment he’s turned out to be.
Is this Elon? Lol
There really should be an annual contest to crown the lamest person on earth. Maybe we could start one on here.
“I could easily afford to do that 5 years ago,” Billionaire says of people trying to live their lives within their budgets.
This guy is really enjoying the smell of his own farts now.
The thing that was cool 5 years ago was at least cool once. AI has yet to be cool and it doesn’t look like it’s heading in that direction. Meanwhile it’s also taking a shitty economy and making it worse while enriching some of the worst humans alive.
Yeah because whatever people like you get their grubby little hands on, it instantly gets enshittified.
Cool things don’t have an expiration date. That’s a depressing as fuck way to look at life.
Sam is so cool.
