Sam Altman has a well-documented pattern of using hype to distract from real problems, and the Farrow-Marantz New Yorker investigation makes that case more powerfully than ever. OpenAI's economics are a mess, and releasing a splashy "superintelligence" blueprint right when the CFO is raising alarms is a classic Altman misdirection play. Leaving decisions about potentially civilization-ending AI models in the hands of someone this untrustworthy is genuinely dangerous.
