He's actually saving us from AGI which will arrive and, I don't know - kill everyone? once OpenAI makes 100 trillion dollars.

This reminds me of this fossil cable company owner. He just couldn't understand why they needed more bandwidth. Netflix and youtube had come in to being and this old fart just didn't get that people were actually using their bandwidth.

Okay everyone should create an openai account and start feeding it shit. Ask it the most braindead questions ever, if they use your questions as training data itll just fuck the next model up even more.

Yeah, we see this all the time with emerging tech and platforms. All of the top tech companies now were once spending cash faster than they could make it, and all the naysayers saying they’d never be profitable.

Don’t y’all get tired of being wrong sometimes? Maybe try to learn from the past.

[-] Saledovil@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

I don't think Youtube was ever profitable, to be honest.
