<p>You gotta do better than compare an apple and orange to "steelman".<p>The risk of free speech and data centers are not comparable.<p>Aviation too is far more damaging to our environment than ships.<p>More ships and trains, less aviation is a possible trade off. A simple aviation <i>or</i> sailing argument lacks investigation of all possible tradeoffs for familiarity and personal preference; flying is faster.<p>Altman needs to accept the trade off we don't need OpenAI. That exists due to financial engineering not technical reasons. All AI work be done <i>actually</i> openly at america.gov<p>You say steel. I dunno. If it is it is inferior brittle steel.</p>

That’s harder to understand because such varies and not everyone agrees what are legit specific needs.<p>But generally we won't need more big infrastructure to account for fewer people actually needing</p>

<p>"Finally admitting"<p>Google League of Nations<p>We're repeating old social tropes the 50+ year old leadership lived through.<p>It's sad and pathetic. The youth reliance on old leadership and putting that on them is elder abuse. McConnell and Feinstein handlers should be prosecuted for such.<p>This is 100% on lazy, low-skilled, younger American public that doesn't need Depends expecting better from the generation glazing over live on TV and vanishing from office only to be found months later in an institution<p>The censored for TV era propped such olds up on screen for decades and refused to challenge their speculations and bullshit; everyone actually believes the elders are cogent and capable but they never were. Just puppets of a bygone era of televised circuses beamed to the Wonder Bread eating masses</p>
