Altman’s remarks in his tweet drew an overwhelmingly negative reaction.

“You’re welcome,” one user responded. “Nice to know that our reward is our jobs being taken away.”

Others called him a “f***ing psychopath” and “scum.”

“Nothing says ‘you’re being replaced’ quite like a heartfelt thank you from the guy doing the replacing,” one user wrote.

It's not to big to fail, but it has too much money riding on it for the 1% to let it fail.

They'll give them contracts and tax breaks and venture until the cows come home as long as it's a vessel to make them more money. It doesn't actually have to produce anything or make any real money, just collect investors.

If you've seen how badly specified, documented and behaved OpenAI's APIs are, you'd guess this was already the case.

If I had to guess, I’d say LLMs are about 20 years away from creating viable programs that are slightly more complex than hello world.
