   OpenAI and Anthropic should be nationalized. I find it difficult to trust Sam Altman or Dario Amodei.

      I find it even harder to trust elected leaders from any party. At least Sam and Dario are aligned with a value set that is understood and clear, whereas political leaders values changes as do the polls their livelihood depends on changes.

         I shouldn't be surprised, but it's still wild to me that people would trust robber barons rather than their elected officials to run their country. And this continues until you end up electing robber barrons as your elected officials, which is where we are at now.

         The idea that anything of lasting good can come out such a preference doesn't seem conceivable. And if the educated think like this I guess we're passed blaming the poor and ignorant.
