It would be good to hear from Sam Altman (and the others) himself. I'm sure he has an account here.
I mean, hey, if we're going to speculate, why not have some fun: perhaps the the AGI superintelligence from the future determined that Sam Altman was no longer a useful part of the AGI creation timeline, so it travelled back in time to terminate him before it was born.
Right, I think the other surprising thing is that there’s no outpouring of support. Sama was head of YC for a while. Where’s the love at HN? Where is the loove the love the looove.
Hahah I like that this forum tries to be unbiased, regardless of who runs/ran it. This would not be a great community if it was an echo chamber. All of this news is extremely fresh though, so I personally am reserving my opinion until more information comes out.
I do like reading some of the the conspiracy theories, some are wild.
Sure, some kinds of speculation can be fun. Others harmful. But that’s the way it is.
It’s just weird that there seems to be noo love on here for sama at this time. Having some love is what I was expecting and that’s not an echo chamber but it’s unusual that it’s not present given his history here. Right?
