Didn't OpenAI close new ChatGPT Plus signups just 2 days ago? Strange coincidence in timing... Maybe the board just learned that costs were wildly over what Sam told them? I guess …

Right but by that definition every thing in the universe is and will always be basic. The word becomes meaningless.

That sounds similar to companies in the 1960's refusing to use "soulless" computing machines aka computers. Not sure it worked out well for them...

I think by "smartest people" the article is referring to the top 1-3 percent smartest people, not the actual 1-3 smartest people in the world...

Isn't rental income treated as income tax? It is in the U.S. Since tax is on the profit only, the tax would be on that 40%, so 32% of 40% so ~10%. You are still walking away with 6…
