OpenAI is running laps around the media and everyone is eating it up

Notice that every month or so they have a few new “scandals” with high intrigue but noticeably iron clad legal and political “cover your ass” investments/ politicking

Meanwhile they are getting deep into bed with Apple, making an admarket (worst possible case scenario for users IMO) and generally cementing all of these commercial inroads for revenue

I’d be impressed if it weren’t so destructive and psychotic

No press is bad press

This isn't true at all. It can seem true for a surprisingly long time, but sometimes bad press is bad press.

Tesla's no press is bad press "strategy" recently came home to roost. No matter how you slice it, alienating your core constituency of customers is bad business.

This "bad" press certainly might not actually be bad. But it just isn't true that all press is good.

It's a nice quip, but in practice, the actual details matter.
