Weaponizing hanlon's razor has long been a thing in politics -- particularly North American ones -- but it's really come into vogue in the business world in recent decades. It's much easier for malice to succeed when masquerading as stupidity. Underestimate at your peril.
@dalias@trendless@reinhilde I use the crypto heuristic, "it doesn't matter which, just never trust those people ever again". Sam Altman is one example.
@dalias@trendless@reinhilde PS this also means that the former board of OpenAI included a critical mass of unqualified people, because they were in a position of corporate responsibility, did not know the crypto heuristic, and hired Sam Altman.
