Sam Altman a month ago said OpenAI needed to continue expanding so it wasnt a choice between _curing cancer_ or _offering free education to everybody on earth_Its the basis for raising capital & justification for pushing the planet closer to total ecological collapseSince then:1. A video platform to compete with Tiktok2. Altman claimed to solve AI psychosis & in the same post, that they were adding erotic chatbots3. Next a music generation toolHow is this not reported on as fraud?

Many may not be aware but video generation tools are vastly more energy intensive than simple text generationAnd the difference isn't like double, its orders of magnitude The same is true for audio toolsWe are not in a situation where compute is abundantSo this isn't because there is so much extra, its because it can't do what they claim it canAnd they know it can't

These companies get to break copyright law, they have unlimited funding, they face no threat of regulation, have the media repeating whatever lies they want. They have government contracts, essentially free money from the pentagonAnd they still can not make moneyAnd they are usually at best spending 3 dollars to make 1 dollarThey would not be flailing in the way they are if they had a real planAnd its now 33% of the US economy and growing amount of EU and UK economy

@ekis they show what massive good can come when copyright law isn't an impediment -- it's pretty good evidence that we should fundamentally change how copyright law works
