    The right thing isn’t always popular. Something being popular is not itself a good argument for a thing to be done.

      Why do you think I’m saying it’s the right thing? I explicitly said I wasn’t arguing for it. It’s pretty obvious I’m just pointing out what the rich fucks will do. Wishing upon a star won’t change it

        There is an option of not doing a thing just because a rich fuck wants you to. It’s mind-blowing, I know.

          What the fuck are you talking about? You idiots cannot fathom a world where you cannot accurately shovel words into strangers’ mouths.

            I’m talking about just because the rich fucks want you to use a thing, that doesn’t mean you have to use the fucking thing.

            Edit: But since in this case they lose money every time you use it maybe we should just automate using it as much as possible for useless shit on free accounts to speed the collapse.

                Whatever dude, it’s a discussion of hypotheticals. Unless Sam Altman somehow involved himself in the chat, nobody here is influencing if any of this happens.

                    not really, you’re all up and down the thread getting all excited about people discussing a hypothetical

                    unless the folks involved are extremely delusional, they already know that what they want has little to do with what will happen
