Sam Altman’s Coworkers Say He Can Barely Code and Misunderstands Basic Machine Learning Concepts https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/sam-altman-technical-coding 😂
I think there's a small but real chance he's eventually remembered as a Bernie Madoff- or Sam Bankman-Fried-level scammer.
Is anyone surprised by this?
@nixCraft Absolutely not surprised. Most of these very huge "tech" figures are just like most other CEOs. They're sociopaths benefiting from the abilities of others. SBF, Sam Altman, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and many others.
They might have business savvy, and they might be good at mobilizing workforces, but they aren't tech minds.
The Bill Gates-es of the world, who actually are competent programmers while heading software companies, are comparatively rare (regardless of everybody's opinions on Microsoft and Windows, Bill Gates is not a terrible programmer, and he can leap chairs with style too).
