> He's one of the more intellectually dishonest guys in tech," said another VC, who has interacted with Altman and invested alongside him. "I've had plenty of meetings with him where he says things where I'm like, 'That just cannot possibly be true,' but he can kinda get away with it." I like the photo choice for that article. On that picture, he looks like he really doesn't want any of this and is increasingly horrified over what he is getting into - but the little Roko's Basilisk in the back of his head is forcing him to go on and on and he can't do anything about that. So it's fun to imagine that he actually believes the things he is saying and is not intellectually dishonest - but simply insane. But yeah, the more reasonable explanation is indeed that it's all just an act and he knows exactly what he is doing.
