This is alarming...

One of the things companies have started doing lately is signaling "we could do bankrupt", then jumping ahead a stage on enshittification

I don't think OpenAI needs any excuses to enshittify, they've been speedrunning ever since they decided they liked profit instead of nonprofit.

Microsoft gave them 10 billion moneys. They'll be fine.

That's not what I said.

Money doesn't mean shit - enshittification is about potential cash flow
