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 a different set of “missed targets”, based on Wall Street, that generates headlines like this one:
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.
Hi Davi,
Nice updating of FlyingPenguin to more neutral brown with interesting penguin skeletal display.
Here’s the article about the new ad campaign ‘Stop Hiring Humans’ taking place above the skies of San Francisco’s SoMa and the upper level of the SF Bay Bridge i saw Thursday as I drove into SF from Oakland and looked up to see AI’s war against humans in the skies above.

The controversial campaign is the work of Artisan, an SF-based artificial intelligence startup founded by Jaspar Carmichael-Jack. The dystopian ads urge employers to spurn hiring people in favor of “artisans,” AI sales agents that, according to the billboards, “won’t come into work hungover.”
