But if you're wrong in the short term, it can wipe you out when you use leverage.
And so I think it's just something that needs to be avoided altogether.
I agree with that.
I have it written down here exactly like that in my notes.
It's up to Altman to decide what legacy he wants to leave.
He will be remembered.
The jury is out on how he will be remembered.
What is so interesting about Altman is that AIs existed before him.
But it really needed a face and it needed a salesman.
And he did both things very well.
And you look at when ChatGPT launched and he was the face of AI suddenly, look at how much has changed in the world just in the last three
years.
Look at how much real world investment, construction projects, everything else that is happening all around the world.
And that really comes from that Chad GPT moment and Altman selling it.
And so I think there is some suspicion around him, particularly in regards to converting OpenAI from a nonprofit to a for-profit company.
And so I think that there is still room that he could be remembered negatively, but right now I'd say it leans positive.
I think it can be both.
