I always get the Sam Bankman-Fried vibes from him

  SBF is dramatically less scary than Altman. Which is why he’s doing 30+ for being likewise a crook but dramatically less dangerous to Enlightenment civilization in the large. SBF was trying to pocket the difference on a regionally lax regulatory climate. Felon? Sure thing. By all means, hand down a sentence. It’s fraud. Altman has blown straight past the “personal financial gain” fraud line multiple times and has amassed enough fear of retribution to now be at the “manipulate both potential executive orders and plausible legislation to arrogate de facto regulator status to myself” stage of the conquest of Arrakis. Both bad. One far scarier.

    Dammit, why are monsters lurking under all my cool tech rocks?

      It comes and goes. This is the twilight of this era of mediocre technologists known by sight by the bouncers at the Battery.

      Because a purely competitive operating environment favors the sociopath.
