- saltysalt 2y agoOpenAI does not own a social network. Google doesn't even own a social network anymore. Neither are valid comparisons to xAI owning X.
- miohtama 2y agoGoogle owns half of the emails in the world which may be more valuable.
- saltysalt 2y agoEmail is not a realtime social network, not even close.
- nothrowaways 2y agoDoes Google train AI on emails?
- whats_a_quasar 2y agoAnd also Sam Altman doesn't own either OpenAI or Reddit, lol.
- rvba 2y agoMy understanding is that Google "owns" reddit in the sense that they paid to use it as source of training data. And goodle paid reddit so much that they have exclusive rights for that. Probably this is the reason why all the reddit free public APIs are gone - to block scraping.
- bag_boy 2y agoCan you cite your sources on Altman not owning Reddit?
- kristjansson 2y ago"large-ish minority shareholder" != owner
- whats_a_quasar 2y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reddit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reddit Owners: Advance Publications (30%), Tencent (11%), Sam Altman (9%)
