Sam Altman, the recently fired (and rehired) chief executive of Open AI, was asked earlier this year by his fellow tech billionaire Patrick Collison what he thought of the risks of synthetic biology. ‘I would like to not have another synthetic pathogen cause a global pandemic. I think we can all agree that wasn’t a great experience,’ he replied. ‘Wasn’t that bad compared to what it could have been, but I’m surprised there has not been more global coordination and I think we should have more of that.’

The whole bunker/bunkerlikes thing is one of the more evil things the megarich have done. And imho it also points to some very dark futures which causes me to have some feelings re the future which I try not to talk about online (as I don’t think negativity is productive, and I it is very likely they (and via that me too) are wrong, they are idiots after all). But yeah they are not even trying!
