I’ve been an AI and a genAI hater since day one, and I don’t have anything positive to say about the values or morals of these tech moguls.
Still, this doesn’t feel like high quality journalism to me. The speaker spends the first few minutes of the video describing Loopt as a failed product with no users and implies that Altman lied to get his product sold. Loopt’s product or users weren’t the important part; it was sold primarily for its patent on interactive location maps, which Apple still likely pays a licensing fee for to this day for Find My (unless the patent lawyers have finagled something). I found that with just a few minutes of searching.
Oversights like that make it feel like this is a person with a political agenda rather than a journalist reporting on a story. Maybe that’s alright, but honestly, I think there’s enough to criticize about AI financing and social harm without misleading like this. Just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Well...yeah. It's a non-profit led by Bernie Sanders' senior policy advisor.

Nothing like some early morning tagging to get a person woken up for the day! Merry Christmas. 🎅
I really dislike clickbait titles like this. Please add at least some relevant info in either the title or description.
I changed the topic title to DeArrow's video title suggestion. Let me know if that's better.
nothing wrong with hitting the "Ignore this post" action for things that you dislike :)
