Agreed, it’s not some cult thing, Altman just forgot some people are not living in silicon valley’s imaginary fantasy with its own rules, some people take your actual words seriously as applied to the actual world and react to them accordingly.

You can dismiss Altman as unserious and assume humanity should do nothing. Or you can take the tech CEOs at their word that the tech they’re building could end the world. Which leaves you with the question of what you can do about that.
