Yeah, it's a dupe of the one that gets manually kicked off the front page after less than a day.
Shameful, really. The importance of public critique & awareness of OpenAI's leadership should go beyond the interests of YC.

dang has confirmed this happened in the past, but hasn't provided details. See this discussion I had with him 6 months ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38342850
I'm currently composing an email to dang requesting some transparency.

dang says: "The only thing we care about is not having tedious internet indignation dominating HN threads—and boy has there been a lot of that on OpenAI lately."
Also: "there are a few people who aren't mods in the sense of working for YC but whom you could call mods in the sense that they have some limited moderation abilities, one of which is to mark subthreads as offtopic or generic"
"Should" is doing a lot of heavy lifting; YC is ultimately about getting rich, and unfortunately there are a lot of pro-Altman types 'round these parts who share that "wealth at all costs" mentality.
I'll take my downvotes.
So basically Altman is a dishonest pos. Will fit right in with much of Silicon Valley then.
…power and greed seems to get into all of their heads. Next thing they are part of an NSA Prism program so they can feel like spies too.
Which doesn’t bring out the nicer side of narcissists
