Gary Marcus is not the only one that has been critical of Sam Altman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0K4XPu3Qhg

There's many other people but most of them are independent. It is glaringly obvious now most of the media outlets are afraid to ask the tough questions.


Sure, but why post Gary Marcus then?

That said, MPU has been pretty solidly crazy with their LLM critiques lately (did you know it uses all the drinking water?!?!?). There are plenty of sane, grounded-in-reality critiques. Why not focus on those?


Here is a more fun one to watch:

Sure thing buddy.


In most cases EU tech workers that work remotely for a US company get their invoices paid in USD (same with the outsourcing agencies), so I'd say no.


Yes, but they may ask for more USD than they would if the dollar were stronger against the Euro.


Pretty normal to have a contract in euros if you’re using e.g. remote.com


But they are spending locally in EUR or whatever their currency is.


Not to be confused with Bert Kreischer, the unfunny comedian.


neither are jews. what's your point?


Who is typing if else logic all day into programs? Not even as a junior did I do this.


Programming is essentially if else logic


Is that what they call "full stack" programming?


"full stack" programming is actually incredibly hard since you can no longer push new items once the stack is full. If this happens you better go the route of "stackoverflow" programming.


The days of full stack programmers are over. Soon they’ll end up on the heap.


Totally valid use of an if statement right there.


Don't these high end cars have hidden GPS devices inside of them? Or is that a myth?


They have them and it would solve this problem if victims could rely on a perfect police force with unlimited capacity.


I mean, there is some true to that. I left a Macbook Pro in public in Saudi Arabia. I came back looking for it (5 hours had passed since) and it was still there.


I personally know no one that owns a Ferrari. Does that mean no one buys a Ferrari?


You have seen Ferraris on the road, despite not knowing someone who owns one.

There will always be a subgroup of people that will pay for social media, either because their work pays for it or because it is crucial enough for personal reasons.

I am happy to pay for social media if there is zero tracking and zero advertising. However, so far advertising is way too lucrative, so this won't happen.


> Does that mean no one buys a Ferrari?

No. It just means there isn't a trend of people buying ferraris.


Or parallel construction.
