It’s not a nothing burger in the sense that this signals a distinct change at OpenAI’s new direction following the realignment of the board. Of course AI has been in military applications for a good while, that’s not news at all. I think the bigger message is that the supposed altruistic direction of OpenAI was either never a thing or never will be again.

Disagree, my role requires attendance and participation in business calls constantly, and it’s not a very unique role at a company. Being able to do so in public places or traveling would be useful often, depending on how cumbersome this is to wear.

Additionally I could see this being very useful with sales folks, essentially any role with talking as a main component.

Now in its initial form it may be unwieldy but future iterations, if it can be slimmed down and/or add additional capabilities there is for sure use cases. Even with the general public being able to call family/friends on your commute home would be useful I would think.

They are, they just wasted a lot of time with Hydrogen tech instead building up their EV capabilities

Didn’t the Japanese car industry only just finally jump in the EV game?

Gabe’s choice of successor is arguably going to be one of the most important decisions in gaming, ever. Crazy to say, but finding someone who can maintain course and propel the medium without getting greedy is likely gonna be tough. Gabe always had vision, or at least hired people who did and listened to them. Hope he makes the right call.

Impossible? The only moat with Reddit was the userbase, the site is just a link sharing site with nested comments…

I enjoy Lex’s longform style but man he does nothing journalistic, which drives me crazy. He’ll ask a hard question but never pushes back on answer cause he’s concerned about being friends with everyone moreso than actually challenging someone’s PR answer that never exists in reality.

When your topic is AI, and it’s at the forefront of national attention you’re pretty useless if you don’t have the stones to actually challenge these pie in the sky type answers the regulars give on his show.

Altman “It’s going to make money useless and probably result in massive unemployment. But I think everyone should have some say in the development in AGI and how we handle it.”

Lex “Wow that’s so noble. Anyways, do you think we can have AI friends someday.”

Like you don’t have to be mean or rude but you gotta have the courage to press some of these guests on their bullshit.

Yep. In fact I bought a second deck (OLED) instead of upgrading GPU’s. Prices are nuts, I’ll wait.

“Tough on crime!”

Did you guys just bake a really long bagette and invite everyone over to discuss the proposal?

Mostly true in normal cases. If you’re really talented there is a market for you, always. Idk if he falls in the category, and most cyber criminals have no shot at white hat anything but given his age and his feats I think he might be an exception.

It's good to learn your security concepts, schooling should help with that. After that, I would gravitate towards learning the security around newer commercially viable but immature technology and seek positions around that area whether in security or not. To me, if I was just starting out I'd look towards AI and Machine Learning, which isn't a very unique answer but probably the correct one for the fastest advancement in this path. Learn the different types of models, learn what kind of attacks their susceptible to, the security controls and mitigation techniques for defending these systems. It changes frequently, pay attention to Github's trending section to see where the tech world's focus is as a decent barometer of where things are heading (not necessarily where things currently but going towards).

Overall security is needed everywhere so get a taste of a lot flavors and see which ones you like best, you'll likely be able to find a job there.
