If politics emergent from SV technology can’t be discussed on HN, then I’d call this community an abject failure.


My point was that submitters who only submit political articles (in line with their biases) are detrimental to the site. Such articles attract more politically charged engagement, and over time draw in people who care more about politics than tech.

The article btw is of questionable newsworthiness; and is a link to a propoganda blog. It's not really an accredited news organization.


That may be true, but most of OP’s posts did not get any traction at all. This one did because it’s relevant to the community.


Community prefers to be misled on Topics as long as it goes along with their inherent biases.


Why? “This community” worked extremely hard to bring this technology to fruition, and got handsomely rewarded for doing so. The “success” already happened. At least Mr. Altman had the decency to wait until his product had been released before getting up on his moral high horse about the risks of what he’d built, whereas poor Google did the hard work of firing all their AI ethicists and making their priorities clear a while ago, only for them to get scooped on their own technology.
