Sam Altman is just repeating the early days Elon playbook. He tries to keep the media coverage saturated with bullshit which avoids scrutiny on the wrong things and has the convenient side effect of burning attention otherwise drawn towards things like Google’s Gemini Product launch. The fact that things are basically verbatim reported without any critical thinking shows he’s right, it works. Trump employed the same strategy too. It takes advantage of our terminally broken media ecosystem (no incentive to call bullshit), personality cult and attention economy. The only way to read Silicon Valley is to look at actions, not words.
