I think any real user from Reddit that isn’t a bot is an asset these days. I hate Reddit as much as the next person, but giving people shit for coming from there to here feels hypocritical.
Hopelessness is the real plague of the 21st century. In large part for everyone it’s climate change. We realize that the planet is becoming increasingly uninhabitable, yet we are powerless to stop it, because billionaires profit from keeping it going.
Plagues kill millions; the price of fucking everything goes up overnight and stays up forever; and the daily news of potential WW3 tend to add up. The future looks bleak.
But at the same time, the one power we do have to effect change is to vote. Show up and vote and have your voice heard. Are you okay with letting hopelessness give in to fascism or do you want to try to make things better and keep the door open for elections to continue to be meaningful in the future?
This is the exception to the no preordering games rule. Supporting a co-op.
I heard Walz high-fived his wife and friends BEFORE he praised his opponent for a well-played game. The man is a public menace.
Monied interests are all supporting Trump, MAGA, and the Christian fascist/nationalist movement.
He held a meeting with oil company executives and promised to kill climate change initiatives for campaign contributions. Nakedly. Openly.
Trump and Thiel’s stooge, Elon, is literally paying people to register to vote and getting away with it.
Even the media sanewashes Trump’s insanity while they pounced on Biden for any slip of the tongue. It’s because they’re owned by billionaires.
“Big number goes up at all costs” is their true religion, and they’ll destroy democracy to worship it.
Republicans have oversaturated the market for hate.
“I don’t care what the patient said before he went under. They say all kinds of loopy things. The chart clearly says to amputate the right leg. Hand me the bone saw.”
The release of this next model comes at a crucial time for OpenAI, which just closed a historic $6.6 billion funding round that requires the company to restructure itself as a for-profit entity. The company is also experiencing significant staff turnover: CTO Mira Murati just announced her departure along with Bob McGrew, the company’s chief research officer, and Barret Zoph, VP of post training.
All the problems with “AI” are suddenly solved now that Altman needs to justify his funding. I’m sure senior executives are jumping ship right on the cusp of their great triumph, because they want to spend more time with their families.

He’s already crying foul? Are the numbers that bad? First solid good sign of the night.
