Anybody else completely apathetic towards all of this? I'm so fed up with the morally-bankrupt Sam Altman and Open AI as a whole that by the time another one of these "Hey, check out the latest blah blah AI blah!!" gets posted, my first (and often lasting) impression "meh".

For me it's more than apathetic - for example when I'm encountering content which is illustrated with AI-generated images I noticed that I'm subconsciously downgrading it's quality right away - for sure it's wrong because that's classic example of judging book by the cover and even some good quality OS software on GH and/or good tech blogs with proven record use AI-generated content for illustrative purposes - however it's kind of automatic reaction for me and I need to use conscious effort to combat it.
I think it’s reasonable. You weigh the quality of content by the amount of effort its creator put into creating it.

Has nothing to do with AI directly.

The dramatic predictions that tend to occur between the model updates are what annoy me. AGI is coming! It’ll be smarter than PhDs! We will need technocommunism!! Cold War 2!
