Allonzee@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•"I lost trust": Why the OpenAI team in charge of safeguarding humanity implodedEnglish0·1 year agoHumanity is surrounding itself with the harbingers of its own self-inflicted destruction.
All in the name of not only tolerated avarice, but celebrated avarice.
Greed is a more effectively harmful human impulse than even hate. We’ve merely been propagandized to ignore greed, oh im sorry “rational self-interest,” as the personal failing and character deficit it is.
The widely accepted thought terminating cliche of “it’s just business” should never have been allowed to propagate. Humans should never feel comfortable leaving their empathy/decency at the door in our interactions, not for groups they hate, and not for groups they wish to exploit value from. Cruelty is cruelty, and doing it to make moooaaaaaar money for yourself makes it significantly more damning, not less.
His silence about why says it all.
He isn’t sorry for what he did, murder customers in swaths to metastasize private profit in our American deathcare state sanctioned confidence scheme, he’s sorry he may face violent reprisal for what he did.
I’m glad he’s on record leaving with no apologetic plea, off to count his money from all the murders he oversaw.
When terminal capitalism collapses, coming very soon, and he has nothing of value to pay his guards and security patrols with, the survivors will remember who he is and what he did.
