Altman has literally been preaching AI as an agent of impending doom since ChatGPT [1]. If you keep telling folks the thing you’re building might mean “lights out” for humanity, some people will take you seriously.
To be clear, this doesn’t excuse the idiot attempted murderer. But dialing up hysteria to scare up investors doesn’t come for free.
