building a Dyson sphere around the sun is an incomprehensible undertaking. building one around the solar system is simply impossible in even the wildest sci fi projections of the future

every statement Altman and his fellow tech oligarchs make is just as preposterous

Like birds and butterflies, ideas have wings and no border can stop them.

Neither can the thought police (though insert paragraphs here about the internet, which don't fit into 299 characters).

Over and over we’ve been told self-driving cars would solve our transport problems only for them not to deliver.
