Won’t someone think of the tech CEOs

  Statistically speaking, tech billionaires are rare among humans. We must protect the species on the brink of extinction!

  You registered your account in 2023, so you're relatively new here, but you're in the wrong place with that sort of comment. Or maybe you're not, Hacker News has evolved away from its mission and audience and I'm in the wrong place.

    Pretty telling you directed that at my comment rather than the absolute horseshit comment I responded to.

      HN's intended community wants desperately to be those tech CEOs/tech billionaires. So, your comment is a little ironic.

Altman's got his signature on docs he claims to know nothing about. How it is a "smear campaign" to report that?

  Oh you. These people have weightier issues like the ethics of the hypothetical technological future on their capacious minds, and mustn't be dragged down to your mucky little level of discussing the ethics of the very real business present. Seriously: don't bother them with these little questions of the rights of actually enumerable humans to whom they have contractual responsibilities! They're busy thinking in great depth about how their product might affect the rights of all the humans they haven't yet sold it to.

    One does wonder how the accelerationist ethic conceives of the tradeoff between a hundred future happy fulfilled lives or two hundred permanently indentured serfs.

Is it a smear campaign when you did it to yourself?

Altman is a billionaire. I'm sure he's got a good crisis management PR team to handle the pickle that he's found himself in. He'll survive.

It’s a smear campaign because of the focus, not if he or he did not do what he said
