Big fan swyx, but both here and in the article there is some bragging about being quoted by sama, and while I acknowledge that that’s not out of the ordinary, I’m concerned about where it leads: what it takes to get quoted by sama (or similar interested party) is saying something good about his product, and having a decent follower count.

Dangerous incentives IMO.

acked. in my defense i didnt write the article + ben already had a good track record from the o1 article. while our relationship with oai is v v v impt to us, we've also covered negative openai stories: https://www.latent.space/p/clippy-v-anton and will continue to give balanced coverage with the other labs when they do well.

we are definitely not seeking to be openai sycophants, nor would they want us to be.
