First of this meta ilk I've seen since 2024 (and it is tired)

I'm so glad this is being discussed more openly. Ronen Farrow's piece on OpenAI had a sentence that stays with me "Sam Altman is a liar".

They ran out of good things to say about AI so now the Darios and Sams turned to vague threats of world doom if we don't trust them to build the LLMs.

We pay too much attention to the idea of AI becoming Skynet and not enough attention to the more mundane reality that AI is simply a force multiplier for all manner of fraud and predatory commercialism.

> simply a force multiplier for all manner of fraud

That reminds me of another nascent technology from the past decade-or-so... it's been great for money laundering and rug pulls.. and presidential enrichment

Tiresome, or tiring, perhaps; but not tired.
