Unsurprising turn of events. Musk can't stand not being at the top of the food chain, and it's been widely reported on that he's felt "left out" as AI has taken off while he has been consumed by the disaster he created for himself over at X -

I can imagine Musk losing sleep knowing that a smart, young, gay founder who refuses to show him deference is out in the world doing something so consequential that doesn't involve him.

Genuinely curious why I'm getting downvoted - similar comments don't appear to have met the same fate, and I'm by no means defending Altman or OpenAI.

If it's because I mentioned that Altman is gay - and I can't find another reason - I think that's relevant in context of Musk's recent hard shift rightward and his consistently aggressive, unprovoked behavior toward LGBTQ people. For some reason the topic looms large in his mind.

It seems like he's talked a lot about the T in LGBTQ, not so much the G? Evidence that he would be especially incensed at getting beat by a gay guy seems thin on the ground unless we insist on treating LGBTQ as a bloc.

(I don't exactly keep up with Musk's doings, though.)
