OpenAI, selling its users out while still not making a profit 🤣.

Misread this as “tokemaxing.” And if you’ve ever had to work at a warehouse… yeah.

In a row?!

We’re sure this isn’t some alien’s brain, right?

I miss Mitch 😢

“But I want to document what you say!”

There are people who are stuck in the circle of selling back old games to help pay for their next game.

Good, good – teach the children that authority is bullshit. This kind of thing is more effective than book learnin’.

Really makes you feel huge and significant, doesn’t it?

“If your prod can be deleted by your AI, it should be.”

I’m here for a cozy time, not a long time.

They couldn’t cram as many ads as they wanted into it.

I don’t know if it’s still effective for moon exploration, but I bet I would feel very safe inside that thing.

To reduce the number of non-working poor people. Or “useless eaters” as the psychotic, billionaire class calls them.

“You cover your mouth with the inner part of your elbow—it’s called the vampire cough!”

“Oh-no!”

“No, it’s all right—there’s no real vampires!”

(From The Office, I forget which episode.)

Completely fair, and I definitely agree with your point.

I did. As well written as it is, I don’t think the premise of “the REAL doomers were the CEOs!” is going to spread far enough to dethrone the present, much more popular understanding of what an AI doomer is. It didn’t seem worth addressing. We’ll see though; perhaps every time someone says “AI doomer” on Lemmy, some wag will reply with, “Um a-kually, I think you’ll find the tech CEOs are the real doomers, LOL.”

As to the the notion that the dangers these techbros have released are now coming home to roost: it’s overstated. In my opinion, the techbros will continue not to give the merest shit about the harms they’ve caused, and one misguided soul with a molly isn’t going to change that – or bring back all the dead people LLMs contributed to killing. Will it increase the CEO’s feelings of paranoia? My dude, the wealthy are already maximally paranoid.

LLMs are responsible for more deaths than doomers are.
