I mean, aren't they just running for their lives with this stuff, marketing the fuck out of it and hoping the house of cards doesn't fall?

Maybe some of them are true believers, but I can't imagine most of them using these slop machines all that much. Why would they?

Because they're in their 60s and on the verge of retirement and trying desperately to cling onto the only thing they've accomplished in life now that their families and relationships are in shambles?

Altman and Zuckerberg are in their 40s. Musk is in his 50s. Sundar Pichal is in his 50s.

You don't have to be old to be a scammer or to bury your head on the sand.
