AI疲れというより、品質担保能力がない人がAIで微妙な成果を量産して、気遣いができる人たちがその尻拭いをしてるんだけど、効率化の御旗のもとで、AI slopを生産した人が人事権を持っている層から称賛される、という空気に疲れるんだと思う。AI slopそのものは無視できる裁量が自分にあれば別に気にならない

“AI can do this music/film/art thing better than humans now” Nobody gives a fuck! I can put a soccer ball on a conveyor belt that delivers it to the goal with 100% accuracy, but try selling tickets to that shit!

OpenAI Is A Confidence Game Empowered By The Media and Investors That Is Rigged To Explode
I tend to be pretty light-hearted in what I write, but please take me seriously when I say I have genuine concerns about the dangers posed by OpenAI.

I believe that OpenAI is an incredibly risky entity, not due to the power of its models or its underlying assets, but due to Sam Altman’s ability to con people and find others that will con in his stead. Those responsible for rooting out con artists - regulators, investors and the media - have not simply failed, but actively assisted Altman in this con.

Here’re the crucial elements of the con:
Creating a halo of uncertainty around the actual efficacies of LLMs, to the point that a cult of personality grew around a technology that obfuscated its actual outcomes and efficacies to the point that it could be sold based on what it might do rather than what it actually does.
Creating a halo of “genius” around Altman himself, aided by constant and vague threats of human destruction with the suggestion that only Altman could solve them.
Normalizing the idea that it’s both necessary and important to let a company burn billions of dollars.
Normalizing the idea that it’s okay that a company has perpetual losses, and perpetuating the idea that these losses are necessary for innovation to continue at large.

Sam Altman is a dull, mediocre man that loves money and power. He appears to be superficially charming, but his actual skill is ingratiating himself with others and having them owe him favors, or feel somehow indebted to him otherwise. He remembers people’s names and where he met them, and is very good at emailing people, writing checks, or finding reasons for somebody else to write a check. He is not technical - he can barely code and misunderstands basic machine learning (to quote Futurism) - but is very good at making the noises that people want to hear, be they big scary statements that confirm their biases or massive promises of un…

Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

Elon Musk is now worth over $800 billion.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
