This guy is trying to be the poster child for atheism. He's a terrible spokesperson and will cause people to either be more religious or treat atheists like shyt.
They really should tell this guy to shut up and build another paypal.
They'd be asking him to win the lottery twice.
I think people are finally starting to understand the role that luck plays in the tech industry and really all industries.
These people aren't geniuses. A lot of the tech you use now was developed by government during the cold war. GPS, the internet, touch screens, wifi etc. Silicon valley just finds ways to combine shyt that already exists and sell it back to you or sell you a different version of something you already have.
Their latest "innovation" just boils down to a sophisticated chat bot that gets shyt wrong and makes up answers when it's wrong(hallucinations)
They're already running out of data to scrape from for generative A.I. and it's use cases aren't showing up fast enough to justify the investment in it. The stock market is reflecting that too.
These guys are just moronic fascists. He wants "wokeness" to go away, hence he funds right wingers who are Christian nationalists but then comes out and says Christianity is "woke". Like dumbass nazi elon musk who wants people to buy his overpriced electric cars but then is sending money to politicians who've promised to increase fossil fuel subsidies or keep them in place. Republicans have even said they want MORE combustion engine cars on the road.
These a$$holes are just morons who don't know how to be rich in peace and can't live with the fact that people are allowed to call them gross, weird, evil nerds that can't just be normal in peace like Tom from MySpace.
