Please stop desciring people who are horrible human beings as mentally ill. The disabled community is very clear that both sides think we are usable as insults for people you don't like. It's gross. Greed is not mental illness. It is greed.

Scalzi is making a point to separate the actual tech from the corporate greed and exploitation, but I guess that is too nuanced now?

The sickness is GREED that causes inequality. AI -CEOs & their pursuit of AGI is super dangerous in so many ways. If it does not kill us all it will make all but the one percent poorer.
Donald Trump is a symptom of a deeper sickness of inequality, disillusionment, and division.
The cure? Economic and social justice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTQoc5Jrciw

I think it is way past time to put women in charge! Men have had ample opportunity to figure out how not to kill everyone else, because of greed and indifference and jealousy and a whole list of other ridiculous grievances. Methinx, that before we start a war, men should seek the counsel of women

common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, & corruption worshiped like gospel... a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before money, power, & spite, it doesn’t just lose its soul- it shits out this bloated obscenity & calls it a leader.”

Judge them now. Make them feel the impact of their hatred and bigotry and greed right now. Waiting is just you wanting to try and have someone do it for you. Hoping that everyone else will start and fun the parade while you sit there.

If this doesn’t cross a line of ethics, I don’t know what does.
The NBA isn’t that far removed from Tim Donaghy and now this is fine?
What are we even doing anymore?
Greed and corruption, it’s everywhere and I’m sick of it.

From @theathletic.com: LeBron James will make nearly four times as much promoting the Polymarket prediction market as he will from playing basketball. The deal may not break NBA rules, but it raises uncomfortable questions.

Exactly. Only allowing 40 minutes per visitor is mad, and it’s not at all surprising that people take longer than that to view it. Trying to cram so many people in is sheer greed on the part of the BM.

A man standing in front of you says "I'm going to make you and everyone you love's life hell for the next two decades at LEAST. For fun/greed."
And you're telling me you'd accept that? Is it the distance that makes this type of violence acceptable from Altman?
Close the distance.

Sam Altman: We believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology. I do think the lighter touch regulatory stance we advocate for comes with an accepting of the fact that some bad things are going to happen.

In general. Seems like an uncomfortable question.
I can be libertarian about people endorsing corrosive vices like lust and gluttony, so don't see much of a difference with greed.
In moderation, it's all fun and games. But it's the abuse that raises moral questions for me.

Which is why we are seeing such an attack on the American people. Putting corporations in charge of government leads to the same greed, profit driven behavior as seen in the corporate workplace. That is why government regulation was ever needed. Ultra rich cut corners at the risk of workers safety.

It’s billions of dollars, and it's pretty clear when you juice a meme coin, and then it collapses in value, and you walk away with a lot of money and all the people that you convinced to invest in it walk away losing a lot of money that's an easy story to tell.

He assumes that because money is the only thing that matters to him, others can be so easily swayed to throw away principles and decency. Malignant narcissism has no human connection and is solely driven by greed and malice.

Crypto Fear & Greed just hit 70 (Greed), up 5 points. What a trader does with that: treat it as confirmation risk appetite is broad right now, not a reason to chase. Greed above 70 has reversed hard before.
