Thank you sir, I didn’t know the way to fix ailing welfare states was to make ChatGPT available to all.
It is truly the ultimate technofix.
Odd take, but if we zoom out,…
access to internet, and functioning computing is increasingly important for everyone. It obviously doesn’t rank about healthcare, safe housing, and foundational income.
nobody is obliged to construct a less stupid version of the stupid claim, though
if he meant a less stupid version, he could easily have said that

Extremely quotable and vastly applicable.
This post may be the epitaph of our civilization.
I’m speaking for myself, not him. People need internet and such, but it’s not the first thing on the list
Yeah but has ‘lack of compute’ ever been an issue for people online? Really weird to do a 80/90’s university style supercomputer computing time per department distribution style system in 2030.
Usable fibre broadband is part of the universal service obligation for British Telecom landlines now
Thanks Sam!
So trickle down AI?
“ChatGPT 7, please make me a sandwich, I’m hungry.”
As an AI language model, I cannot make a sandwich or any food for you.
However, because you have indicated that you are broke af, which is illegal in the State of Missouri, this conversation and your IP address has been reported to the state police.
lmao
I was going to make this very joke before I saw this.
What you get is not dollars, but like productivity.
Interesting. Interesting theory Altman.
What if the dollars paid for that productivity went to the people who generated that productivity, perhaps?
What if we had something to represent that productivity? Like, pieces of paper in various denominations. You could just trade them for whatever goods or services you needed.
And remove those dollars from those who have the most of them?! What are you, actually crazy?! You’re clearly crazy.
Clearly the dollars should go to the people who tell others what to do, and thus stand at the base of increasing productivity, how else would the plebs know what to do. A telling others what to do economy, or perhaps if you will a command economy.
How long until Sam Altman says that Social Security checks should go straight to him ?
Likely already happened years ago, but hasn’t been made public yet.
Hasn’t there been internal email and chat logs leaked showing that he knows he’s completely full of shit and just trying to make the most fucking money at any cost?
I’m not aware of any, got a source?
That’s convicted fraudster sam, different sam. Easy mistake, you can usually tell them apart by the hair.
Sam Altman is trying to equate compute time with value but fails to see that value can be traded for goods and necessities. Wtf a lumberjack, carpenter, mechanic, plumber, steel worker going to do with compute?
This is Sam “WorldCoin” Altman we’re talking about, I’m sure he assumes they can mine crypto with it.

This is part one of enshittification: You give your service away to get users, and cater to their wishes. Then once they’re hooked you can do whatever you want because they can’t leave.
Just more technofeudalism from a technofeudalist.
it’s more insidious: it’s not giving it away. it’s subverting the “hmm UBI is good actually” argument and saying that people should receive compute instead of money, with a quiet “oh and naturally someone will have to pay us for providing them that compute”
not that I’d bet against them pulling a lock-in move down the line as well (or upsells or any number of other exploitation plays), mind you
These people are so or of touch with reality it’s cringe.
Is this the guy that kindly asked for 7 trillion? Of course he doesn’t want UBI, because he wants to vacuum up all the money to dump it in his robot girlfriend.
so when you can’t get the retail and/or enterprise markets to give you enough money to get dem gainz you were hoping for on your grift, ah yes naturally it should be government money that bails you out. got it.
Hey it worked for that other fascist guy
personally, I’m in favor of it. imagine all the use cases. shouldn’t take long
If I remember correctly, Sam Altman’s idea of UBI was people buying stocks and trading them.
