<p>I thought Alex Wang was a very curious choice. There are so many foundational AI labs with interesting CEOs... I get that Wang is remarkable in his own right, but he basically just built MTurk and timed the bubble.<p>Doesn't really scream CEO of AGI to me.</p>

<p>Tibetan freedom of religion, language and movement being restricted is terrible. It's like what your government is doing to Gaza, except without all of the murder and ethnic cleansing.<p>Like I said, you have psychological issues if you think it's remotely comparable to millions of Iraqis getting senselessly tortured and slaughtered.<p>Like a Nazi who thinks they're not so bad because the Americans have racial segregation.</p>

<p>I'm not going to debate someone who compares Tibetan political opression with a million dead Iraqis and the brutal carpet bombing and turning an ancient country and people into a failed state. Or who thinks the Uyghur re-education camps, however terrible, are in any way comparable to 20,000 dead Gazan children.<p>You have psychological problems and are beyond reasoning with. Like I said, brainwashed.</p>

<p>Nobody is defending their behavior. You're just proving the brainwashing point I made by instinctively going into attack dog mode making silly arguments.<p>And no, China's oppression of Tibet is nothing close to a million dead Iraqis and an ancient country turned into a failed state. The fact you'd even make such a goofy comparison shows how deep American indoctrination runs.<p>Your tax dollars are still torturing brown people without trial in Gitmo and genociding Palestinians btw.</p>

<p>Yes. They suck. They've also never done anything remotely as bad as the US did in Iraq.<p>That's my point. Americans act like China is the great evil... it's quite strange.</p>

<p>As someone from (and who lives) in the developing + non-aligned part of the world, I'm always amazed at how ingrained hatred for anything western and non-democratic is for Americans.<p>Anything that isn't a so-called democracy with so-called western values (which change every 10 years) is patently evil.<p>Is this a relic of cold war propaganda? I hate to call it "brainwashing" because that's a very politically charged word but it's a belief that's so ubiquitous and immediate it surprises me. Especially for a culture with such anti-authoritarian cultural history.<p>Not defending CPP by any means just always find it funny from a vantage point of being surrounded on both sides by extremely large pot and kettle.</p>

<p>It's nothing like the dot com bubble because that was based on speculative future value and zero present value. There is more present value in AI than at any point in software in the last 30 years.</p>

<p>You'd think after all this time nerds would stop obsessing about profit. Profit doesn't matter. It hasn't mattered for a long time because tech companies have such fat margins they can go profitable in months if they wanted to.<p>Yes, $5m in sales. That's effectively pre-revenue for a tech company.</p>
