I agreed with you up until I looked her up. Then Tasha McCauley, who I forgot was Joseph Gordon-Levitt's wife. Shivon Zillis, Elon Musk's whatever that is.

So these three plus Mira Murati make 4 for 4 hot women governing OpenAI. I'm not a Data Scientist but that's a pattern. Not one ugly woman who has a concept of AI governance? Not one single George Elliot-looking genius?

I noticed this too but it's easily explainable as a coincidence so calling it a pattern is a bit far stretched, especially when at least two of them have subject creds.

Oh I def think it's a pattern but I don't know that it's a bad pattern. Honestly, being married to Joseph Gordon-Levitt is probably a good sign.

Have you also mentally slotted all of the male board members into “hot” or “not” categories, or is this a treatment that only the women get?

"hot women", not quite, they're just not ugly.

Women are socially allowed to use artificial means to greatly improve their appearance. I'm referring to makeup and expensive hair treatments. Women from upper-middle or upper classes have even more of an advantage in using these. So if you're a thin woman, unless you were unlucky enough to be born disfigured, you're a single afternoon away of looking like a movie star.

If Sam Altman was socially allowed to wear makeup and a wig, you'd call him a heartthrob.

Honestly, maybe you're right and they're all hot, but I'm not attracted to men so I can't really say. I would be surprised if women/et al found Altman or Sutskever physically attractive but who knows maybe they are kinda cute. What do you think?

Are you claiming that physical appearance has nothing to do with politics, or that we just shouldn't comment on it?

I think it's pretty obvious that the OpenAI men aren't too attractive by most standards, as opposed to say US presidents, who are mostly sexually attractive.
