Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

In the spirit of donation with the understanding that it may be difficult to know what role money will play in a post-AGI world.

That is downright cultish. Typical of gurus to ask ludicrous sums and mention in the same breath that nobody'll need money anyway once Eden/Apocalypse descends upon us.

The investors are all bubble chasers. The only plan is to take OpenAI to an initial public offering and then dump the shares on retail investors before the AI bubble pops.

I'm humbly asking for someone smarter than me to clarify this. Does this mean the big money people are planning to dump their shit on the rest of us so that when genAI goes down its our savings that go "pop"?

6,6 billion? Joseph Weizenbaum realizes he made a big mistake in his reaction to ELIZA. Could have been rich and infamous, instead of just famous.
