I don't think Sam Altman has made a single correct AGI prediction, despite sayin...

False, he made one of the most important predictions https://blog.samaltman.com/ai and he made it happen.

Whatever you think of this person, he did the thing he predicted. That's more than most people.

Calling him a grifter tells me more about you than about Sam.

You may be a bit emotionally invested in this topic if you feel you're getting a lot of information from that exchange.

simianwords · 2026-03-24T19:32:06 1774380726

Why do you think so?

burnished · 2026-04-01T23:55:55 1775087755

Simply because it was an information poor exchange.

Because you’ve posted a dozen times here and it seems to be about the only topic you post on.

What topic do you mean?

sarchertech · 2026-03-24T22:36:30 1774391790

What topic do you think? I was in another thread and saw someone post this completely independent of me noticing it:

“There's definitely some people working overtime to overhype AI on here. like 50% of the comments on this are from simianwords who only posts when people say negative AI sentiments.”

Anyone with a single drop of common sense knows that Sam Altman is a grifter. If you don't see that, you are quite simply not bothering to apply critical thinking.

Altman is a grifter who is floating on the unexpectedly rapid advances in AI.

He will likely end up like Musk, another grifter who was floating on low hanging fruit in EV's and rocketry for a decade before being revealed.

The guy predicting a world changing technological revolution 12 years ago and he pioneered it himself. That is the opposite of a grifter.
