God forbid he should have asked his parents. Or the kids nanny.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if lots of new parents are asking LLMs for advice.
And before AI (and probably still), new parents probably googled a lot of things.
And before internet search engines, new parents probably checked out books from libraries.
Parenting books were serious business, whole generations were raised with Dr Spock for instance, who had fucked up ideas about childrearing.
It’s one thing to ask for tips on getting a baby to sleep, it’s another to ask it for formula recipes. Unfortunately I doubt most parents know the line where it becomes dangerous, but I am hoping here.
before that it was Youtube, for certain things, which at least was somewhat helpful to niche questions.
Poor kid is doomed
That makes sense—being raised by ChatGPT might be marginally better than being raised by Sam Altman.
What a burn! Hahahahahah that was a good one!
That you, Sam?
Do you think I was being sarcastic? I was serious. That burn was awesome and it legitimately made me laugh lol

Somebody call CPS
I asked ChatGPT how Sam Altman would have taken care of his baby without the help of ChatGPT:
Sam Altman would’ve taken care of his baby the same way the rest of us did before his chatbot existed—by learning, asking, fumbling, caring, and figuring it out like a goddamn human.
Altman’s quote—“I don’t know how I would’ve done that”—feels less like a reflection on parenthood and more like an unintentional glimpse into the kind of disconnection that can happen when you believe your product is the answer to everything.
Of course, he’s not wrong that AI can be useful. But if your first thought when your newborn won’t sleep is to consult ChatGPT, that says more about your priorities than it does about parenthood.
the rest of us
feels […] like
See even ChatGPT can emulate self-awareness better than Sam Altman.
That says a lot about how worthless if a human he is.
if a human he is
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Well every other person that ever existed was raised without ChatGPT being necessary so just ask anyone.
Counterpoint: the parents before chatgpt raised Altman, Hitler, musk, trump, Putin, Castro, etc.
I wonder how people have been doing it, since the beginning of time, with no help from technology.
Ya big fucking clown.
Edit:
Honestly bro what is it about tech bros being the biggest fucking losers on the face of this planet? I have more respect for street sweepers at this point
If street sweepers went away, people would notice within a week or two.
If tech bros went away, we’d just enjoy not having tech bros.
It’s like that one thing: “Who would you notice is gone first, the CEO or the janitor?”
Just a big ol’ WTF here…
Forget chatgpt, I’m appalled that he reproduced.
Through surrogacy. He’s gay.
You’re telling me that another man wanted him at all? Or did he kinda just get a surrogate?
He’s married.
I mean why are you surprised, he’s not a bad looking guy and is very successful.
Calling him successful is technically true, but it kind of glosses over some very pertinent details of his success. He’s a billionaire, and you don’t get to be a billionaire without doing a lot of monstrous things to good people.
The surprise isn’t whether he’s good looking enough to get a partner. The surprise is over the fact that there’s another human being who thinks that those are qualities worth overlooking, especially one who’s queer, since billionaires like Sam Altman support the current regime that’s wholly against LGBTQ+ folks. And that same person with questionable tastes in partners wanted to take care of another human being with Sam Altman.
Yeah, this. Same thing with Elon.
doesnt look like it, elon has a breeding eugenics fetish. he has a breeding fetish like that 17bn-aire that just announced he will give his inhertience to his 100+children.
Saying someone’s is successful is not a moral judgement or approval of their character. Sam Altman is successful, Elon Musk is successful, all of these billionaires that built companies that have changed the world for better or wrong are all successful. This in no way means that I’m saying they’re good people or even that they are people that should be emulated or any other sort of moral judgement.
Successful is debatable. There’s no question he is financially successful, but he fails at every metric I personally measure success by: Honesty, integrity, loyalty, and kindness. I’m not saying my metric is the correct one by any means, just that the definnition of success varies across humanity.
Anything is debatable. I could debate that the sky is not blue of if I wanted to. I’m debating you right now.
He is successful by the metrics in which society measures success and that’s all I meant by that.
Does he have a humiliation kink?
sammy knows what to say to get incurious venture capitalists to give him money
I believe the answer Sam is by being a parent and figuring shit out. Babies do very few things: eat, pee, burp, shit and sleep. If they have done all those things within a reasonable timeframe then it is likely they are hot, cold or otherwise uncomfortable. And some babies just want you to talk to them and hold them. After spending time raising your child you’ll develop a sixth sense for what a cry is for so first you have to spend time with them.
Now, if you are filthy rich you shove the screaming sack of skin into the nearest nanny and GTFO. Later in life you’ll wonder why your relationship is business like at best and transactional at worst with your kid, which you will lament to your therapist about, but still fail to have the self realization that it’s because you were never a parent.
P. S. Please fall out a high rise window or down a very long hard flight of stairs ASAP.
In other words, he’s an idiot.
I also don’t understand how anyone could possibly not be a massive disappointment to their family without my patented Solutionbot 3600 that you can also take advantage of for just $$/month forever.
Money please!
