Sam Altman has a new plan to make money from generative AI: he wants intelligence to be treated like water or electricity — and we’ll all have to pay him for it.

His chatbots are degrading people’s ability to retain information and think critically. Now he wants to sell smarts back to us.

Make ‘em dumb, sell ‘em smarts

Sam Altman wants intelligence to be a utility that you pay him for

@parismarx While I don't think we should do much with it, I think we should absolutely advocate for the public seizure of OpenAI's property like he's suggesting. Water and Electricity are managed by Municipalities (usually) and I think we should also own and distribute AI on the local level. We don't need to pay him for it, imminent domain that shit.
