Sam altman himself has sort of cooled that rhetoric down - see his recent podcast (frankly I forgot who it was with, I only saw clips of it - but he was wearing orange-brown and had an applovin mug). Maybe it is to contrast against anthropic where they are leaning hard into the EA party line, not sure. This guy always seems to have an ulterior motive behind everything though.
One line I remember was that he said the disruption is not happening the way they thought after GPT4 due to inertia bla bla and that it will be slower gradual change and they got the timelines wrong.
And yes on the defense usecase. That is the main reason governments are giving a hoot about AI. Orbital datacenters too, I know people working on the Indian one, it's entirely for defense usecases. Basically for missile stuff.
