Reposted by JørundSooz Kempner @soozuk.bsky.social · 17/01/2026I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum. 131106622748

![[Scene is an office with OpenAI logo on the wall. SAM ALTMAN is talking to his other founders].
ALTMAN:
Well done guys…
We’ve built a robot that might take everyone’s job, steal all the art,
boil the seas, turn everyone thick, and drag the world into a posthuman nightmare!
FOUNDER 1:
Er - Sam…
Why is that… good?
ALTMAN:
Because if we don’t, then someone else will make it, but be a bit less sad about that.
FOUNDER 1:
Right.
So! What shall we tell the public ahead of the IPO…?
ALTMAN:
Well, I think I should do this face:
[Altman makes his dolorous slow-loris-looking-at-the-ceiling-in-sad-reflection face]
...And then talk a lot about AI destroying the world.
FOUNDER 2:
Yes that’s good that sounds nice.
FOUNDER 1:
And that will make the public give us $60 billion?
ALTMAN:
Ah - here’s the clever bit. Just before the IPO I’ll say…
“Don’t worry everyone, I think I might be talking bollocks.”
FOUNDER 1:
Will they still give us the money?
ALTMAN:
Yes.

KARL BENZ:
OK guys - you’re gonna love this
2
KARL BENZ:
So it’s like, a box made of metal that goes at up to 120 miles an hour, yeah?
[Karl shows them a diagram of a car]
3
KARL BENZ:
And your drive it down one side of the road, and the boxes going the other way go on the opposite side, so we don’t need to build two roads!
4
OTHER GUY:
What’s down the middle?
KARL BENZ:
A white line.
5
OTHER GUY:
So like, a white barrier…
KARL BENZ:
No a white line. Drawn on the floor.
6
OTHER GUY:
And who’s piloting these machines?
KARL BENZ:
I was thinking: random members of the public.

[Pause, the other guys all look with concern at Karl]

OTHER GUY:
Karl are you OK
KARL BENZ:
No listen it’s fine

OTHER GUY:
You know we’re worried about you, don’t you?
KARL BENZ:
No really it’ll work -

KARL BENZ:
Once hundreds of millions of people have died and the world’s started ending because of the fumes it’ll all be normal.

OTHER GUY:
Is that normal like the ‘commuter travel device’ you brought in last week which was just…

OTHER GUY:
…an iron maiden fired from a catapult?
[The other guy displays a diagram of an iron maiden being fired from a catapult]
KARL BENZ:
THAT WOULD’VE WORKED!
