    Fuck Sam Altmann, the fartsniffer who convinced himself & a few other dumb people that his company really has the leverage to make such demands.

    “Oh, but democracy!” - saying that in the US of 2025 is a whole 'nother kind of dumb.
    Anyhow, you don’t give a single fuck about democracy, you’re just scared because a chinese company offers what you offer for a fraction of the price/resources.

    Your scared for your government money and basically begging for one more handout “to save democracy”.

    Yes, I’ve been listening to Ed Zitron.

      gosh Ed Zitron is such an anodyne voice to hear, I felt like I was losing my mind until I listened to some of his stuff

        Yeah, he has the ability to articulate what I was already thinking about LLMs and bring in hard data to back up his thesis that it’s all bullshit. Dangerous and expensive bullshit, but bullshit nonetheless.

        It’s really sad that his willingness to say the tech industry is full of shit is such an unusual attribute in the tech journalism world.
