I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
4 ways to get paid:
1) you pay, then I work
2) you pay as we go
3) I work, then you pay
4) When X happens, you pay me
Go for 1 & 4. Avoid 2 & 3.
Every unsuccessful person I know believes the game is rigged.

Shamelessly promote your work.
Shamelessly promote your ideas.
Shamelessly promote your offers.
Shamelessly promote your content.
Shamelessly promote your products.
Nobody else will do it for you.
If you roll a die 1000x, you’re likely to get lucky
And when you get lucky, people will call you out
The difference is, you can force luck to happen by doing so much it would be unreasonable not to get lucky
And this is what normies don’t understand, and why you’ll beat them.
