Literally all of these people write like this. A large portion of them will either be simultaneously or eventually working towards nothing but self-enrichment.

- mlsu 28d agoEvery version of the AI aligned future where the AI provides “meaning and fulfillment” to humanity also involves Sam Altman wearing a 1.5 million dollar Patek and driving a McLaren. Funny how that works.
- senordevnyc 27d agoAltman was very wealthy before OpenAI, and he declined to take any equity in OpenAI. How does that fit your theory?
- ofjcihen 27d agoIs the only wealth represented in money? If that was the case than the vast majority of these people could have wrapped it up and left the game years ago. Power is the game.
- senordevnyc 27d agoThis explains nothing. Money buys a lot of power, and he could have easily just had both.
- ofjcihen 27d agoNah, money doesn’t buy ALL power. Only power of a certain kind (read ownership of a system that many rely on) can’t be bought.
- senordevnyc 27d agoAgain, this misses the point. Why did he turn down an equity stake that likely would have been worth hundreds of billions? It's not like it would have jeopardized the power you're talking about.
- ofjcihen 27d agoIf anything that proves the point. The power wasn’t in the money (which he already had plenty of, as you say).
