So Microsoft has no issues with Sam Altman being a rapist?

Eh? So far the only allegation is from his little sister who has provided zero evidence. She also mentions in her interview with Weil how she has gotten angry at her brother over money on more than one occasion... I don't know, I don't want to completely dismiss her out of hand, but to just blindly hop on the train of him being a bonefide rapist is also wreckless. He's also quite openly gay... So him raping his little sister doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but who knows.
I think I'll let people qualified to get to the bottom of these allegations sort it out, given the very "he said/she said" nature of it.
She still deserves all of our attention and her voice needs to be heard. She struggles for survival and probably can't even afford good lawyers to sue him.
Sexual orientation or even desire are quite irrelevant, as that would apply to pedophiles too otherwise.
How could she not be with how she was, according to her, pushed into sex work? Having one of your siblings resort to sex work for survival while your own net worth is more than half a billion dollars definitely means you're the bad guy no matter whose version is correct and no matter how you look at it.
Sheesh they didn't completely shut down the possibility. They just said they think it's unlikely, and I agree with them. Whenever I've seen people suddenly jump out like this to make extreme claims it's been somewhat sketchy at best.
