It’s always weird realising that people will pay more for a blank Moleskine notebook than for a novel.

nowing what we know now, we know the board might have said: Altman did not inform the board that the company had developed and planned to release ChatGPT. He claimed that three enhancements to GPT-4 had been approved by a joint safety board the company had established with Microsoft; in fact, only one had been approved. Altman also let Microsoft test GPT-4 in India without the safety board's approval. Imagine if the board had said that Altman also owned the OpenAI Startup Fund, an investment vehicle, personally — something else he hadn't told them about. (He explained that the fund was in his name for tax purposes, and meant to be a temporary arrangement, but the situation had persisted for two years.) Imagine if the board had said that they were responding to concerns from top executives, who had complained about his leadership for months, and supplemented their allegations with dozens of examples, many of which were supported by screenshots from Slack.

An excerpt from @keachhagey.bsky.social's new book on Sam Altman explains in the greatest detail yet why the board fired him in 2023 — and raises the question of what would have happened if the board had told us all this at the time www.platformer.news/we-finally-k...

Immigrants make a place more diverse and thus more creative. This makes it so much more fun and interesting…

At school I was always told when debating you play the ball and not the person. If you play the person it means you have lost because you’re deflecting from the issue. I think of this often these days..

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.

We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.

Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Life in motion 🎞️
Captured a fleeting moment in the heart of the city — a blend of expression, connection, and the buzz of the street. What stories do you see unfolding here? 🖤✨

When you are new to a city it can seem blurred, abstract cityscape that has mysteries and hazy movements. A sense of obscurity.
