Sam Altman says
Opinion discarded
I’d like to interject for a moment, but what you’re actually referring as Sam Altman isn’t his actual name, but as I’ve taken to calling him Scam Altman
His friend calls him Clammy Sam
Clamuel even
*Scamuel
Doubt he has friends.
It was singular on purpose
Heh, that’s good; I’m gonna use it going forward :)
Is there an Origman? Can we go back to him for a bit?
If i force myself to read anything he’s said, i make sure i read it in that pre-pubescent voice of his. I can never get past the way it sounds like he’s straining to summon enough energy to make sound come out of his mouth. The ideas that couple with that hideous noise just make the situation magnitudes worse
Got a good laugh from that. Beautifully succinct.
don’t upvote threads about what this idiot says then
i did not.
Plantation owner assures us slaves enjoy the whip.
If you don’t like working 50 hours a week until age 80 for a non living wage. It means you have work derangement syndrome. Totally a real thing.
Fuck man, if AI made it so I didn’t have to work 40 hours a week just to live, you know what I’d be doing?
I’d be keeping busy about as much time per week, sure. But I’d be doing shit I WANT TO DO instead of maximizing Shareholder Value™️. Reading, motorcycling, brewing, baking, hiking…
Living. Not just working.
Unfortunately for us all, LLMs won’t do that and never were designed for it. Instead they’re tools of Fascist oppression, and should be destroyed.
Billionaires secretly enjoy guillotines.
Yeah dude, busy playing Metroid and going surfing, not busy completing four hours of unskippable corporate training for the third time this month
Here’s the thing, I do love being busy…
Playing with my kid
Cleaning the house
Painting minis
Work busy is so far down the list
There is a thing if you do nothing and didn’t interact with the world at all and work can expose you to different groups of people, that work can be better than never working. But the ideal schedule is like 5 hours twice a week with almost no commute. More than three days and it starts to harm you and drastically reduces what you can do.
I do enjoy working a lot
Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t prefer to work shorter weeks for companies that profit from me
Then I can spend more time on my own projects which is more rewarding
People enjoy productivity. People love working on things. But they don’t enjoy working on things for someone else, all while getting nothing out of it but some financial compensation for their time wasted.
One of the most awful feelings is being too exhausted to work on your own projects. It’s so unfulfilling and anti-human nature.
some financial compensation for their time wasted.
*As minimal financial compensation as possible, which must be constantly fought over too.
He’s half right. I enjoy being busy, as long as I’m doing things I want when I want. What my employer wants me to do is rarely on the top of that list.
I never feel more useless, isolated, and destroyed emotionally than when I am performing monotonous shitty tasks fixing fuckups that shouldn’t have happened
and it just so happens that that seems to be the type of work that AI leaves behind for real people, so…
It sure is convenient that the business owners are always reporting on their findings that support their business models!
“Sam Altman says…”
Who fucking cares?
Why don’t we just start with a mandatory 4 day work week and see how many people want to work on Friday.
Yes Sam, we are yearning for the mines, and for billionaires to abuse us even more…
Yes… Doing things we enjoy rather than working.
