Who is it?




Peter Thiel.

Evil incarnate and the next president of the United States you've never heard of. Vance is his sock puppet, he was chosen because he is guaranteed not to have a single independent thought so when Trump croaks Thiel will be the president in all but name.

It was also he who willed OpenAI to be in order to help destroying American democracy.


I can’t follow OpenAI as a ploy to destroy democracy when he already has Palantir.

Fascism can only thrive in an alternate reality and LLMs are excellent at producing such propaganda on an industrial scale. Accordingly, the political right uses it for that purpose much more and conservatives are much more receptive to it, too.

IDK what you're smoking, but he was born in Germany so can't be the next potus.

Or maybe it's a problem with your English? (Note: I'm being offensive just because you are :-) ).

This means that he will have the power, but not the title.


Ok I get it, sorry bout that and thanks for the laugh!
