I wonder what Altman is thinking. From the outside it seems clear he’s chasing profit, but I wonder if he honestly believes something this concerning will be a force for good and actually used to benefit humanity as a whole.

We've had plenty of insights on what Altman is thinking from one of the people who spent lots of time at his side and know him best: pg.

Lots of pg tweets/comments over the years about how the thing Sam is best at, and what drives him the most, is climbing up ladders and acquiring power.

"climbing up ladders and acquiring power"

He urgently came to the previous administration along with a committee, presenting a plan for the construction of Nuclear Power Plants, focused on serving datacenters for AI, with the excuse that, if the US don't do this, China will do, and he or his team not even consulted the IAEA for this topic.

He might have a point but, still looks like the Salesperson of a Insurance company. The idea is not absurd, but the approach and the speech, seems quite cheap.

I see nothing on his talks that are genuine about solving crucial problems of the humanity...

Clear to me that he's very into keeping the costumer (investors) satisfied.
