Wouldn't it be more correct to call the article "critical" and not "incendiary"? I looked it over and I don't remember seeing any calls to violence. Altman needs to remember that he holds an incredible amount of power in this moment. He and other current AI tech leaders are effectively sitting on the equivalent of a technological nuclear bomb. Anyone in their right mind would find that threatening.

"Critical" even feels strong. The article was essentially a collection of statements others have made about Sam.

Sure, but not useful for the overarching aim of equating criticism of the powerful with (stochastic) terrorism.

Anything but unqualified praise and endorsement is egregious harassment.

Sam posted a tweet saying "incendiary" was the wrong word choice. https://x.com/sama/status/2042789312400363702
