ABOUT ADAM

Based in NC. Classically educated. CTO, founder. Was on BBC. Creator of the fake leaving OpenAI meme. Pareto enjoyer, anti-doomer and anti-utopian.

18 y/o. Christian, CREC. Professional AI nerd. Capitalist, conservative, but thinks tariffs are a bad idea and banning Fable is overreach.

Bullish on OpenAI, Anthropic, AI in general, and especially AI memes.

I'll be poasting whatever I want, but mostly just AI stuff.
