what a bizarre pov about sam altman.

what accomplishment of his has impressed you so much? his entire career has been:

1. start a dumb startup that goes nowhere

2. get a job at YC handing out other people's money

3. a very dumb and creepy crypto currency project

4. be CEO of openai, which means having no direct influence on the product or engineering at all



I'm impressed by how good he is at failing upwards.
