#419 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI, GPT-5, Sora, Board Saga, Elon Musk, Ilya, Power & AGI

I don't even think that's true, but maybe, maybe.

But I was certain we would be able to do something like Sora at some point. It happened faster than I thought. But I guess that was not a big update.

Very simple sounding, but very psychedelic insights that exist sometimes. So the square root function. Square root of four, no problem.

#419 โ€“ Sam Altman: OpenAI, GPT-5, Sora, Board Saga, Elon Musk, Ilya, Power & AGI

But once I come up with this easy idea of a square root function that you can kind of explain to a child and exists by even looking at some simple geometry, then you can ask the question of what is the square root of negative one? And that, this is why it's like a psychedelic thing, that tips you into some whole other kind of reality.

And I think there are a lot of those operators for why people may think that any version that they like of the simulation hypothesis is maybe more likely than they thought before.
