MODERATORS
They've been taking notes for a while. The change they've decided on is building fortresses for themselves in remote locations, not pursuing social change that would allow even a single coin to slip through their claws.
And isn't that insane? It boggles my mind that they wish for a dystopian hellscape to be inflicted upon everyone. They cannot escape nor control that situation even though they have the hubris to believe they can. Even if they could survive, what world would they enjoy? Perhaps the mental illness of immoral and unbridled greed also compels them to relish in the endless misery of the human race.
Build a better world and a rising tide lifts all boats. Super simple.
They believe that the individuals constructing their bunkers and serving as their bodyguards will not eventually kill them and take their place.
lol, that part described so well in World War Z (the book).
Exactly, you’re basically a big slab of veal ringing the chow bell lol.
Any system that rewards people who are this profoundly mentally ill needs to be destroyed

Well, until they get Ex Machina’d by their creations.
There are literally companies that sell fortified refuges with moats to billionaires

Can we donate to the legal fund of the alleged perp? Does his family need money?
Not sure why that's necessary. He was at my house at the alleged time of the incident. Couldn't be him.
Still need to pay an attorney to convince a jury that's true.
"ChatGPT told me to do it!"
"You're right. Why shouldn't you take action against Sam Altman and his company? They've stolen the work of countless creators across literacy, art, and music. They've contributed to increase costs of water and power. You've tried other methods to counter them legally. You should firebomb them, as a little treat. You've earned it. "
ChatGPT: “Molotov Cocktails are good for you in moderation.”
More of that, please!
Fuck yes
Thats sicc as fucc
Come on people. Is this what we’ve devolved to? First, you throw a rock to break a window then you throw the Molotov inside the house.
It was thrown at an exterior gate. I'm sure you can't get anywhere near the house.
Step one for people not wanting to harm you Sam, is not doing things that makes people want to harm you.
Being the poster child for costing as many people their jobs as possible was not going to be a popular move, you had to be able to see that coming. If that was not a forecast you could come up with, you probably aren't qualified to be the CEO of a company.

Good

Still too big
OpenAI says it? Probably a hallucination.
This is only going to increase as jobs are displaced by AI. I don't condone violence against people even shady ones like Altman. But I would kinda grin at the first AI datacenter burnt down by protesters to be honest.
In the longer term I expect those to get prison style security.
Skill issue don't fail to burn it down next time.
Judging by the suspect's age and behavior, this sounds a whole bunch like a mental health event rather than something political. Don't be surprised if the motive was something like OpenAI put chips in his blood on behalf of he CIA.
His AI gf dumped him.
IT'S HAPPY HOUR!! 🍾🔥
Is it really "news" if we don't give a fuck?
Maybe I should have posted in Uplifting News.
That's the spirit!

Can we help pay for more materials?
Good. More please.
Imagine if capitalism fixed itself because all billionaires were scared of being attacked and killed.
