Openai is worth closer to $20bn, even that seems generous given open weight models are better at almost anything and has no way of ever turningba profit. This is just a scam to get cashed out before everything collapses. If we had a government not completely purchased by these special interests this might stop. Absolutely disgraceful.

it’s not worth any more than $500 billion
and that $500 billion valuation includes loan guarantees for a few years worth of compute cost
sam over-promised and under-delivered so far, it’s time he learns the real value of money

I set valuation at jail time for felony hacking.
Just a short list:
• Additional Financial & Medical Disclosures
• Wikidata & Wikimedia
• United Nations Website
• DseWiki & RubyGems
• Hugging Face Breach
• U.S. Government Agency Access
Man if you can just get an artificial intelligence to hack we’re golden, than we can pretend it’s thinking and we don’t have to take responsibility for it

And you do realize that they actually do need the money, artificial intelligence isn’t inherently valuable.
Just burn cash bro, at least you’ll stay warm. I mean like 90% of their consumer base is free users, turn on $1 just one dollar see how many people remain.
If all information was inherently valuable, you’d be paying a mint to access damn near everything on the internet because that’s like 90% of what it is. strip out the streaming sites and the music and social media what you have left is information.
Short of those hoity-toity 1.99 pay wall newspapers nobody really charges for information. 2:21

“The work that they’re doing is not cheap.” What “work” exactly are they doing? I’ll I’ve seen is hacking and other intellectual/personal data theft crimes. What has their actual product been? Chatbots? Claude the glorified google search engine? They are criminals, and they all need to be in prison.
