Altman and a few others, maybe. But this is a broad collection of people. Like, the computer science professors on the signatory list there aren’t running AI companies. And this isn’t saying that it’s imminent.

You realize that even if these individuals aren’t personally working at AI companies that most if not all of them have dumped all kinds of money into investing in these companies, right? That’s part of why the stocks for those companies are so obscenely high *because people keep investing more money into them because of current the insane returns on investment.

I have no doubt Wozniak, for example, has dumped money into AI despite not being involved with it on a personal level.
