This #OpenAI drama is really wild. There's strange doings afoot in Silicon Valley. https://www.wired.com/story/openai-staff-walk-protest-sam-altman/

@Akki it seems more like a hackish plot from a bad sci-fi or a livejournal drama than something that would actually happen at the top of a 80 billion dollar company.But we have Elon “40 billion dollar 4chan” Musk as a recent precedent.

@john even the open letter from the OpenAI staff reads more like a salty forum post than a serious negotiation about the future of the most successful startup in a decade. 🤷🏻♂️

@john for most of my life, the press has covered tech bros from places like Silly Con Valley and its equivalents like Redmond as if they were royalty in a George R. R. Martin novel, except that the writing is pure trash, and they behave more like they all belong in Kennedy O'Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces, and I'm deeply exhausted by it.

@AggroBoy And these are the people that are supposed to be the special chosen ones to guide the terribly dangerous! (apparently) birth of AGI. Truly level-headed they are. Not prone to panic.
