For some it’s a religion. It’s frightening to hear Sam Altman or Peter Thiel talk about it. These people have a messiah complex and are driven by more than just greed (though there is also plenty of that).
- mattgreenrocks 1y agoThere’s a real anti-human bent to some of the AI maximalists, as well. It’s like a resentment over other people accruing skills that are recognized and they grow in. Hence the insistence on “democratizing” art and music production.

In contrast learning enough to know you’re not good yet (and probably never will be) is actually easy. But now I know enough to enjoy real masters going at it and fantasize sometimes.
