- amelius 4mo agoEverything seems rotten with this administration.
- chrisjj 4mo agoWhich of these two administrations? :)
- chinathrow 4mo agoAnd sama.
- potsandpans 4mo agoI'll take Sam over amodei. It's a both are bad choice.
- bigyabai 4mo agoSam, the proprietor of Woldcoin? Amodei might play hardball, but he's got nothing on sama's evil villain ambitions.
- potsandpans 4mo agoWhy downvote me for an opinion? Anyways, I'll take a liar over a zealot anyday.
- bigyabai 4mo agoYou're asking the wrong person, I didn't downvote you. I am challenging your opinion with evidence of sama's uniquely sinister ambitions. Can you elucidate why you think Sam is the better horse to bet on? From what I can see, he's the biggest zealot by quite a margin, in addition to being a chronic liar.
- unknownfuture 4mo agoHonestly I'd say both are both. They just lie and are zealots about different things. Ultimately they both want money and power, they just grasp for it in different ways.
- fittingopposite 4mo agoAnd Sama over Trump?
- blasphemers 4mo agoWasn't Bernie saying the government should confiscate half of OpenAI and Anthropic. This seems like sama is just trying to get ahead of it.
- mrguyorama 4mo ago5% vs 50% is a dramatic difference in how things would work out.
- Omatic810 4mo agoTrue, especially since President Sanders tends to be a bit heavy-handed on exerting political pressure. He's been issuing an unprecedented number of executive orders since he took office...
- CodingJeebus 4mo agoNot to mention that a government ownership stake also incentivizes a bailout if this all goes bust.
- linhns 4mo agoWith the way they're treading on, I'd not be surprised if a bailout happens in the next decade.
- rchaud 4mo agoA 5% stake in an overvalued private company without public financials and with an indeterminate timeline to profitability is a bailout. Shareholders cash out while the taxpayer is stuck with the bill.
- triceratops 4mo agoIs the government buying their stake or being given a stake? In the second scenario there's no bagholding.
- HardwareLust 4mo ago"Too big to fail."
- HWR_14 4mo agoWhy?
