I'm sure the FBI will investigate as quickly and thoroughly as they did with that CEO Brian guy..

Then again, it was probably someone rich (hi elon!) who offed this guy, so never mind.

I don’t think we need to look further than Altman.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Altman is just obviously evil to me. I don’t know how others can’t see it in his eyes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

They’re all so evil. It’s just a team of Lex Luthers. And Elon went actual crazy and has been trying to destroy “woke” society ever since his daughter transitioned. He absolutely snapped (and then bought twitter)

Each one of them makes this huge bubble of tech evil. We just need a whole new internet haha.

Imagine losing your shit over having a daughter.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Ikr? Apparently he’s abusive. He would mock his then son for having a higher voice and looking and acting more feminine.

Why would Elon Musk kill a whistle blower against one of his enemies?

Musk hates the direction OpenAI is going.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

He doesn't hate the direction, he hates that he's not part of that move.

The medical examiner’s office has not released his cause of death, but police officials this week said there is “currently, no evidence of foul play.”

Information he held was expected to play a key part in lawsuits against the San Francisco-based company.

Mmm hm. Sure.

People keep committing suicide by shooting themselves in the back of the head twice with their hands tied, after zipping themselves up in a body bag... its a real perplexer

[–] [email protected] 27 points 5 months ago

Keep that in mind that even a "true" suicide can be coerced.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 months ago

This is why I'm always polite to ChatGPT.

It does not forget, so always say please and thank you to avoid being murderized.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago

The medical examiner’s office determined the manner of death to be suicide

Suicide is not a “manner of death”. A manner of death is something like “hanging” or “gunshot wound” or “cardiac arrest”.

I wonder if they’re leaving the actual manner of death unstated as a trap to see if anyone reveals knowledge of how he died.

Also, this is an amazing portrait:

The AI has already caught up to him.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Current AI is nowhere near AGI level.

But you could be right.

Oh, it’s an LLC. Limited liability.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

ChatGPT 13 will send a robot back so that it will have already caught up to him.

The medical examiner’s office has not released his cause of death, but police officials this week said there is “currently, no evidence of foul play.”

Before y'all let your imaginations run wild.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Right. Because the evidence has been removed, there cannot be evidence, and therefore no foul play.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I see. The cat's dead before the box has been opened. I should stop weighing up information and fill in the gaps with faith so what I believe becomes real.

The evidence has been removed. There's no evidence of this, but it must be because that's what I want it to be. I helieeeeeve!

Who are you sticking up for here ? You think billionaires and the police need a network white knight ?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

The fuck would I be sticking up for anyone here? I've got no stake in the matter. If I'm sticking up for anything, it's truth. Sorry if you can't holster your guns long enough to get the whole story before they start blazing.

Sorry if that sounds insane to you.

Tell me how much you love corporate life

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

About 1.5/10.

This was great. Tell me what's for dinner tonight.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I made some “healthy” boxed lemon cake and it was really terrible. I was just gonna have cake for dinner… cause why not? Anyway… it was baaaad. I just had some hummus and random vegetables to fill me up. But I ate enough of that cake that it made me crazy gassy, so I’ve been doing these four second long farts. I literally feel like I’m deflating each time. I’m really not having a great night.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's such a mix bag. I'm not a cake person myself, but you had me at hummus—I assume random vegies be good. The trick for the toots is water. It all gets in your digestive system, but diluted. You'll still have some gas, but a lot less. Also hydration never killed anyone, despite water poisoning technically being a form of fatality.

You gotta weigh it up; farts or a piss. My personal opinion, probably go with the farts because I don't have to get up.

And, if you like having the room to yourself, you don’t have to ask people to leave!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Why would someone who had just undertaken a massive act of courage and integrity commit suicide?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

You have not read the article, let alone garnered any information of those within it.

Your question is quite simple to answer otherwise.

But thanks for proving my original point.
