Thank you sir, I didn’t know the way to fix ailing welfare states was to make ChatGPT available to all.
It is truly the ultimate technofix.
Is this the guy that kindly asked for 7 trillion? Of course he doesn’t want UBI, because he wants to vacuum up all the money to dump it in his robot girlfriend.
How long until Sam Altman says that Social Security checks should go straight to him ?
Likely already happened years ago, but hasn’t been made public yet.
Ubi is meant to provide people with basic survivability in an increasingly automated world.
I cannot imagine a worse idea than putting basic survivability in the hands of a shareholder bound corporation.
Is this the onion or
Instead of Universal Basic Compute, where everyone gets a slice of GPT7’s compute and is about as useful to the average person as a waterproof mop, there should be Universal Basic Income, where everyone gets a guaranteed stipend so they aren’t required to work in order to have a quality existence, and would, to the average person, be about as useful as clean air.
I’m gonna use my compute to break the encrypting that guarantees that everybody gets an equal slice an then the compute is all mine! MINE!!! My next step is going to be autotuning a proper evil villain laugh.
Turns out my slice of the “compute” is worthless and his is worth billions.
Odd take, but if we zoom out,…
access to internet, and functioning computing is increasingly important for everyone. It obviously doesn’t rank about healthcare, safe housing, and foundational income.
nobody is obliged to construct a less stupid version of the stupid claim, though
if he meant a less stupid version, he could easily have said that
I’m speaking for myself, not him. People need internet and such, but it’s not the first thing on the list
Yeah but has ‘lack of compute’ ever been an issue for people online? Really weird to do a 80/90’s university style supercomputer computing time per department distribution style system in 2030.
Usable fibre broadband is part of the universal service obligation for British Telecom landlines now
Thanks Sam!

Extremely quotable and vastly applicable.
This post may be the epitaph of our civilization.
I thought Thatcher on Acid was a band from the 80s, not the EAies’ approach to economic policy
Let me sell mine for bread/rent
I love the way these idiots keep incrementing the number on their ChatGPT fantasy as if it’s a sufficient image of the future and it’s going to get everyone on board. Complete failure of imagination, don’t try to picture any actual use for it or anything, just make it… more.
“I know not with what technology GPT-6 will be built, but GPT-7 will be built with sticks and stones” -Albert Einstein probably
gpt 7 is a beach hut
With a face drawn on it
@200fifty @Amoeba_Girl “GPT-11 will be built entirely out of sound waves from the sustain” - Nigel Tufnel, probably
People without an imagination trying to imagine what a prosthetic imagination would look like
That’s also why they get so excited about the current chatbots.
Just wait til they figure out what number comes after 7. IOS is up to like what, 20? There’s a lot of numbers they have to learn before they can compete with the big boys.
The greatest version number war of our age is between Chrome and Firefox, nowadays both of which get a major version bump around once a month. Firefox is on 125 and Chrome is on 124.
Seems ridiculous since a full version updates used to mean something
They’re probably some sort of semver now.
unbelievable
Can I use it for groceries?
“ChatGPT 7, please make me a sandwich, I’m hungry.”
As an AI language model, I cannot make a sandwich or any food for you.
However, because you have indicated that you are broke af, which is illegal in the State of Missouri, this conversation and your IP address has been reported to the state police.
lmao
I was going to make this very joke before I saw this.
Can’t wait for the mental gymnastics forthcoming about water and energy use.
Oh, they won’t be issues. Well be drinking Compute straight from the can, and all our appliances will run on direct Compute inputs. You’ll get home from your job earning 10 Compute/hr at the Compute factory, pay the standard 120 Compute charge to unlock your front door, hop onto your Compute Generation Dynamo for an hour to power the oven, and then settle down on the sofa for the evening to see what’s on Soravision - discounted to 7 Compute/hr for GPT+ subscribers.
