It’s pretty clear from the John Oliver reporting, about OpenAI driving people to suicide, that the company is definitely on the wrong side of history. But it’s the “missed targets” of Wall Street that generates headlines like this:

OpenAI Hits Back at Growth Fears, Says ‘Firing On All Cylinders’

Oh, really? Are we supposed to relate to the lack of growth as a real fear?

Like, were there not enough suicides already? Or, since they mention firing, were there not enough layoffs yet? OpenAI has been saying everyone will lose their jobs so, that must be the growth they “hit back” on.

Firing people, on all cylinders. Ok, then.

OpenAI is saying they are all about growth in something, without really acknowledging that lying and mass harms are what it has become most known for growing.
