| I assume that’s why Altman wants the government as a co-owner. |

| ▲ | potsandpans a day ago | parent [-] | | I'll take Sam over amodei. It's a both are bad choice. | | |
| ▲ | bigyabai a day ago | parent | next [-] | | Sam, the proprietor of Woldcoin? Amodei might play hardball, but he's got nothing on sama's evil villain ambitions. | | |
| ▲ | potsandpans a day ago | parent [-] | | Why downvote me for an opinion? Anyways, I'll take a liar over a zealot anyday. | | |
| ▲ | unknownfuture a day ago | parent | next [-] | | Honestly I'd say both are both. They just lie and are zealots about different things. Ultimately they both want money and power, they just grasp for it in different ways. | |
| ▲ | bigyabai a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | You're asking the wrong person, I didn't downvote you. I am challenging your opinion with evidence of sama's uniquely sinister ambitions. Can you elucidate why you think Sam is the better horse to bet on? From what I can see, he's the biggest zealot by quite a margin, in addition to being a chronic liar. |

| ▲ | chrisjj a day ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Which of these two administrations? :) | |
| ▲ | blasphemers a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | Wasn't Bernie saying the government should confiscate half of OpenAI and Anthropic. This seems like sama is just trying to get ahead of it. | | |
| ▲ | Omatic810 a day ago | parent | next [-] | | True, especially since President Sanders tends to be a bit heavy-handed on exerting political pressure. He's been issuing an unprecedented number of executive orders since he took office... | |
| ▲ | mrguyorama a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | 5% vs 50% is a dramatic difference in how things would work out. |

| Not to mention that a government ownership stake also incentivizes a bailout if this all goes bust. |
| |
| ▲ | rchaud a day ago | parent | next [-] | | A 5% stake in an overvalued private company without public financials and with an indeterminate timeline to profitability is a bailout. Shareholders cash out while the taxpayer is stuck with the bill. | | |
| ▲ | triceratops a day ago | parent [-] | | Is the government buying their stake or being given a stake? In the second scenario there's no bagholding. |
| |
| ▲ | linhns a day ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | With the way they're treading on, I'd not be surprised if a bailout happens in the next decade. | |
