BOOOOOOOOOOO
There's about 120,000 other open source AI projects out there, ones with much smaller teams that don't have the onus of Sam Altman around their neck, and which could use like at least a year of living wage (which you'll find is cheaper than $6.6 billion). I'm just saying
That’s the sound of $6.6 billion being flushed down the toilet. There’s no path to profitability. Zero. Zip. Zilch.
Shoulda just set that money on fire.
And Sam Altman is going to use that money to make skynet and we're all fucked.
He stole all of it, he has no clue at all why and how it works.
$157BN? For what? So far, the R in the "ROI" has not shown up in any meaningful way Greater fool theory at work here?
They should get Charlie Hebdoed.
Money laundering to give our data to Mossad!!
how do they budget $6.6 billion?
