Yes, when I think of OpenAI and Anthrophic and Google and Meta and any AI labs and their intentions, i cry a single tear for how these great instituitions are working so hard to bring freedom for humanity.
AI owned by a few companies is more likely to put the majority right back to serfdom. You're a privileged fool to believe that freedom is the likely outcome of the current stampede.
With a username that appears to cheer for a sociopath¹, I doubt reason will convince you.

(Like, Meta’s intentions? lol)
I hope you don't consider NWA a racial hate group given their name.
Also, I don't think you can cite a subjective take as objectively correct by including it as a footnote. Why do you need to medically diagnose him to say what he's doing is fucked up?
Why does he have to be literally the devil for outrage to work?
He could also not be a sociopath, but still his actions will be his actions, and it is okay to criticize them. Next what, you're going to link to an article that says Sam Altman is also a homosexual, and we must be morally outraged at that next? Because that is where your direction is going, instead of arguing about the ill effects of AI.
I think anyone who genuinely thinks AI is a wonderful thing for everyone probably enjoys the privilege of its use, reducing their own workload, without it (yet) affecting their employment, or their local environment, and possibly even lacks the empathy to comprehend negative affects on others. Obviously I was mistaken for thinking you were as such.
Putting words in others' mouths doesn't give credence to your points, the only homophobia here is coming from you. Straw men are not your friends.
Sociopathy in the context of running a powerful organisation is entirely relevant because making decisions that affect many, without really caring about the consequences for them, is generally regarded as a bad thing.
I think (this is subjective opinion from my experience so take it as such and not something objective) but a lot of your want for a better world is also linked with your desire to shame and ridicule people. That is not a healthy outlook towards life imo. Not that what you think is wrong morally (i am on your side actually as you realised) but rather the relationship with the moral values. And its bad not because your outrage is fake or stupid but because that relationship is not good for the self eventually. I can think OpenAI is doing a lot of wrong things, I think Sam Altman is sketchy person who is definitely not a morally good agent but I don't need to hate him or get triggered by him. I also think if he just disappears tomorrow, there will no hit to the broader forces which we should actually protest against imo.
> that relationship is not good for the self
I’d expect to come across, or read in my eyes, differently. Maybe more sympathetic, gracious, or kind, or I can’t think of the right word. Guess I see some bones one could throw to the interlocutor considering you probably share much of the same worldview.
Thanks for provoking some thought! I’ll come back to this one for another read and reconsider outrage & healthy outlooks on life.
