    After seen how Elon Musk went from Tech Entrepeneur to Techno-Oligarch laughing while firing a lot of people in his companies and even in goverment, we can’t have any confidence on any CEO. The entittlement and feel that they can make whatever they want without considering any social cost or burden, just for bigger profits, is telling.

      Deerpiss was always trash. I figured it out when he derailed high speed rail with hyperloop. I was reading a book on the history of various infrastructures at the time and there was a sizeable sector on how they tried pneumatic tubes for rail and while for messages it was a marvel but wouldn’t work for human transport on a practical scale.

    The current newest chatGPT is unconditionally ageeeing with people to increase user retention at the cost of being detached from reality. When social media algorithms shifted towards engagement maximization a decade ago, it had obvious and profound impacts on the proliferation of misinformation. Now Sam, too, has made his deal with the devil.

    I love Sam Altman. Everyone says they don’t trust him without showing ANY proof or giving any reason why other than he holds a lot of power. So?

      @@lucasmiller4202 you lo e someone you don’t even know? He said to congresos he had no financial incentives on OpenAI, just to turn around and have billions of dollars in incentives.

      Ah yes, why would the guy making fantastical claims, accused of sexually assaulting his sister, and ousted for lying, _not_ be trustworthy? 🙃

      OpenAI isn’t even open sourced. (Like the name suggests, as many other “open” and “libre” projects are) He’s just another person with more dollars than brain cells, who gained your trust simply by saying “I don look mean compared to people who are worse than me.”

      So? You fell for a truism and used your reactionary willful ignorance as an excuse. That’s unreasonable.

    When you are in that inner circle you have zero concept of what is going on and how people are using the technology. Have we not learned from the time we had cameras the first time or phones or tv? Put guard rails around stuff as people use this technology in ways that people do. Remember guns don’t kill people, people kill people.

    Wait a few more years. Disconnecting from reality can take time like with Zuckerberg and musk that also felt like normal dudes. Until they didnt. It took time away from normal people. Not being relatable with normal people anymore

    If you take a moment to really listen to his answer. You’ll hear what he is saying/ To know / what it feels like.
    IMAGINE – You learn 10 years of information within the span of your life that you picked up on through lessons, whether taught, read, learned, or observed
    now IMAGINE learning ALL of that within a few seconds! “If I were transported from 10 years ago until now all at once it would feel VERY disorienting!” TRANSLATION =
    Your BRAIN would SHUT DOWN! It is an OVERLOAD of information! Which is why so many people
    with learning disabilities like Autism, aren’t taken as seriously because their brain is just processing an overwhelming amount of information! They are
    sensitive to the environment around them. And so like this young man said, “It feels the same as before” you grow to adapt to your environment. You learn to
    trust yourself, and your intuition / voice a lot more. 🙂 – POWERFUL! – I appreciate this young man and everyone on the team for helping to develop/design OpenAI !!
    I’m so proud to be able to witness this in real time! You’re doing AMAZING things! Keep up the great work!

    There’s already a world of difference between being in poverty and being middle class.

    You mean to tell me someone who currently possesses more than me and my entire family line so far and for another 500 generations cumulatively earned isn’t experiencing reality on a mind-bendingly different scale?

Deep tech entrepreneur D. Scott Phoenix spent years building AI — now, he believes we’re on the cusp of a profound merger between humans and machines. Reframing the AI debate through the lens of evolutionary biology, he shifts the question from whether we should fear or embrace AI to whether we understand what’s at stake if we get it wrong. Hear his provocative case for why we need to “eat the AI.” (Recorded at TED2026 on April 15, 2026)
