    If it’s so smart, maybe they should ask it to come up with a viable business strategy, because he sure as hell hasn’t figured it out, lol.

    Is it because he thinks he is the brightest human scientist, but it turns out he’s actually pretty stupid?

    Maybe in some sense like how maybe a zip file with all published peer-reviewed papers over the last couple years technically contains more knowledge than a random scientist…

    But smarter? Frontier models aren’t even smarter than me, and I’m an idiot

    Did ChatGPT tell him?

    This is getting more ridiculous day by day…

    He’s appealing to the huge swathes of the public who have absolutely NO idea how to actually identify intelligence.

    It’s actually difficult enough where the stupidest people can’t figure it out, and they use confidence, volume, wealth, and flowery language as a proxy.

    Even when you do get people to accept that information is an important part, ANOTHER huge swath of people don’t understand the difference between information and intelligence.

    In short, there’s a very small part of the population that can even IDENTIFY what an intelligent person looks like, so he gets away with this.

      One of the hardest things to grasp is how someone is smarter than you. You can know that a person is smarter than you but understanding why is something that we have trouble figuring out. The default is that they know more than you, which is just information, but how do you make sense of someone being able to handle logic better than you or solve a math problem that you both have never seen before.

      Most are indoctrinated in dualistic thinking and kept that way and taught it’s dumb to learn, so they don’t try to learn more and advance to higher thinking levels. Maybe they get to both sides have some points, but then fall back to whatever their tribe says. They could choose to think critically, use Sagan’s baloney detection kit to weigh proven evidence to make real convictions, not just repeat the brainwashing, and remain open to new data. That’s what all adult and responsible voter should do. It’s not that hard, but so many prefer the tribal identity they cling to and crave and won’t leave it. They could vote one way and say another, since it’s no one’s business to ask anyway, or have integrity and stand up for liberty and justice for all.

    Funny how AI has supposedly surpassed the greatest scientists, yet the greatest scientific discovery here is always announced by the guy selling subscriptions. If it really is that smart, perhaps it could explain to Sam the difference between a peer reviewed breakthrough and a product launch.

    I’ll believe it when I hear it from the brightest human scientists, not the glorified salesman who would ironically be perfectly replaced by AI.

    Sam Altman has been credibly accused of raping his sister.

    …not going anywhere with this, just felt compelled to share.

    Ya, Sam, call me when the AI knows what questions to ask that it came up with on its own rather than just scraping…
