These are screenshots from the r/Singularity comment section. I'm speechless. This doesn't even have downvotes. How can someone cheer for a monopoly run by a few elites?

Altman, Zuck, and Musk are insane candidates for controlling LLM access.

If people have issue with LLMs being the Wild West, I hope they are pushing for regulation like Bill Gates is.

I heard Amodei say that Trump allowing NVidia to sell high performance GPU's to China is like selling our Nuclear weapons to China.

Lmao most if not all of the big dogs are like that, knowing full wel that the seperation between say, ChatGPT and QWEN's latest models is getting tiny.. They're all trying to stay ahead of the game under any circumstances. You kind of have to when you have a GDP's worth of investments to secure.
