I mean I can see how that draws ire. His contribution doesn’t really line up with his benefits. This project started as an open source, with a non profit running it. Now it’s one of the biggest private companies in the world and threatening to replace a lot of jobs. So if you look at the context, he’s already forgetting how much hard work he stole to make himself obscenely rich and powerful!

This feels a lot like a ragebait article.
What did Altman actually tweet that caused the backlash? I can’t seem to find it while skimming, only the responses to it.

I mean every obscenely rich and powerful person stole a lot of work from other people…otherwiese they wouldn’t be obscenely rich. So, he’s not forgotten, he isn’t and never was aware of how much he stole.

His tweet said he’s “already forgetting how much hard work was done”…. by humans! Implying that the AI is doing all the hard work now.

I didn’t see the “says their time is over” part anywhere that he allegedly said. Guy’s still a piece of shit, but not seeing anything out of line he said in this specific instance.

It is somewhat clickbait, it links to this shitter post Conman made, but i guess you can kinda extrapolate his idea behind it.

Yes, total ragebait. Thanks for linking to the actual source xit.
