[ExI] reuter's take on altman

[efc at swisscows.email]

Well... "enter the maniacs". ;)

Jokes aside, given the fact that we are 
seeing the embryo of eco-terrorism fueled by a fatalist view of the future 
of the planet, I wonder if we'll see techno-terrorists or neo-luddites 
doing bad things soon as well?

On the other hand, perhaps the tech and AI crowd is too intelligent and 
civilized to engage in such behaviour?

Best regards,
Daniel
