As an aside, I find it bewildering the hate for success that I see on this site. Ostensibly, the readers are either Startup founder adjacent who are dying for OpenAI's success, or Techie/intellectual types, which I assume aren't looking for monetary success and I would have thought would not be bothered by someone else going on a completely different path.

Some of us find the "great man" worship bewildering. You know, how we think the leaders of these companies are geniuses and have insightful things to say about everything.

I don't mean OpenAI only, I include Google, (which doesn't have any leader, basically) MSFT, TSLA (which does, I know...) etc etc

I know that there are problems with each of those companies, but to hate all of them seems like a pattern to me

Yeah, the pattern is that all these companies behave in ways so problematic that they generate hate. That shows the problem is with the companies, not the people who hate on them.

(If there's a problem with any people outside them, then that would be with the ones who don't hate on the companies. "Hey, just because all these plantations are based on slavery, what's with the hate on plantation owners?!?" That seem like something "good people" sould say, to you?)
