Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Unpopular opinion: you only hate chat gpt because it makes it harder to stack rank and discriminate against people.

So what everyone can write well now? great it's a tool! Just like moving faster because you drive a car.

The good news is you'll be easily able to hire for that writing job you need. The bad news is you won't be able to discriminate against candidates who are not as good with the written word.

Also, an obsession with the written word is a tenant of white supremacy [salute emoji]

Spoken like someone who thinks they can cheat their way to talent

Ya can't

Not talent, but you can cheat your way to success and power, which is what they care about.

That's an interesting point. It also aligns with how some of our main characters are involved in trying to organize a steroid olympics.

I have the feeling this comment is written in a code I do not know.

Unfortunately "steroid olympics" isn't a code for anything at all but is quite literal.

There's literally a weirdo who came up with plans for "the Enhanced Games", and some Silicon Valley venture capitalists including Peter Thiel and Balaji Srinivasan actually invested in it.
