He is a hypocrite for all we care. You work there for a while when your stock is getting vested and suddenly you have this feeling? Like the dude hired a PR firm as well.

While the safety and alignment is a real problem, I don’t get this guy or the Anthropic dude. First world problems.

Here's a little cheat sheet for discrediting anyone who warns about AI:

* If they worked at an AI firm, say "they're a hypocrite"

* If they didn't work at an AI firm, say "they have no idea what they're talking about"
