I would do "full-stack" over a decade ago, when there was less of the notion of "front-end engineer" (which still sound a bit ridiculous to me) - the front-end was mostly HTML and CSS. It was a good experience, to go from requirements gathering to the database schema and back to presentation - it helped me see the whole picture.

Altman openly says, if you want to make money, you have to invest in startups (i.e. piggyback on the smarts and dedication of others). He wants to make money on whatever is hot, so there you have it.

It's just sad, that they needed to deceive the audience with a BS feel-good story and a super awkward name to begin with. In my book that's basically a business no-go, period.

What's worse, the field is a total minefield. Jobs will get lost, surveillance and feedback loops will get tighter - all for the sake of making X billions from Y billions.

I could also see Altman replaying his early "success", something like taking 30M for BS idea and then selling it for 30.5M and celebrate big.

I'm looking forward to it.

I long for the long lost time when research was less of an industry. If you read 19th and early 20th research, it comes of from an alien world. You had to be curious about your subject and smart back then.

It's probably that older people growing up with computers needed to do something with them (could not just stream twitch) and hence when you had a computer, then you was what today would be called a power user.

Today, just millions of normal people use computers, tablets, phones, appliances every day and they get along fine - but they are not power users, since you can spend your time on the computer with almost zero knowledge about it.

A concrete example would be that it's totally fine today to not know, what a file or folder is - because all you see is a feed or an album.

I'm on the low end, but still at about $70. I think $37 brings across a wrong signal to the other party as well.
