sam altman

founder of chatgpt.

his sister (see: annie altman) claimed in a tweet that despite her brother being a billionaire, she is homeless and broke, resorting to prostitution to survive. she also accused him of sexually abusing her when they were children.

he is vegan and gay but also described as someone who schemes behind others' backs. because of this, elon musk allegedly kicked him out and severed ties.

now, he says he wants to advance artificial intelligence, but the western world lacks the financial resources to build the computers powerful enough to manage this ai. who does have that power? china.

apparently they made a movie about his life.

sam altman’s life has never been limited to software.

he is also one of the founders of worldcoin, the crypto and global identity verification project.

he has invested heavily in energy ventures as well, including the nuclear fusion company helion energy and the nuclear fission company oklo.

in that sense, he feels less like a traditional tech executive and more like part of a new generation of techno anarchists trying to redesign money, identity, energy, and eventually the systems society runs on.

"ai will probably most likely lead to the end of the world, but in the meantime, there'll be great companies." -business insider
