      I’m surprised that Altman was relevant enough to comment on when Swartz was still alive

      I would say breathing is coolest thing his body is doing. Nothing else is going on in there

    Somewhere in the forest there exists a tree planted just to replace the oxygen Sam Altman wastes. He should find it and apologize.

      There was a tree. It was cut down to make way for a data center.

    I will say, as an old and fat and gay millennial, Gen Z actually does make me optimistic with this trend I noticed of a lot of them rejecting newer tech and going more analog.

    I even know a few who tossed out their smartphones for dumbphones and some of my other Gen Z friends asked me for help on how to burn CDs.

    I dunno, with how bad things are these days, this is something that gives me hope.

      Millennials need to stick with supporting Gen-Z. I feel like as people start inheriting money, or choosing to use destructive tech like AI, the media is going to get better and better at dividing Millennials. Elder Millennials are most at risk of splitting off.

      I don’t want us to get to a point where Gen Alpha hates Millennials. Millennials are very good at rejecting media programming and trying to break systemic cycles, hopefully that’s our thing, and the next generations can steer the ship somewhere better than boomers did.

    The thing that was cool 5 years ago was at least cool once. AI has yet to be cool and it doesn’t look like it’s heading in that direction. Meanwhile it’s also taking a shitty economy and making it worse while enriching some of the worst humans alive.

    Cool things don’t have an expiration date. That’s a depressing as fuck way to look at life.

    I’d say I really don’t want to hear these people’s dumb bullshit and it’s not worthy of attention, but the limelight seems to be significantly harming them, so send it.

    Live your life as an inverse Altman. What ever he says, do the opposite.
