OpenAI wanting the US government to take 5% is not "democratization" or something, it's a bailout. OpenAI can't get the money from private investors or the stock market and needs the hole in their bud...
@nprofile1q... the various tech centrist / pseudoleftist proposals for "public ownership of AI" are just another version of this - public ownership of a thing that harms the world and never should have been built? public ownership of the hellfire missile, public ownership of the cybertruck, public ownership of NEOM.
