It seems that you implicitly trust and support Sam Altman. Why?

Interesting. Why do you say it seems that way?

Is that not an accurate observation? My trust or lack thereof is not on display here.

It is not as I understand the facts to be about Sam Altman. Do you distrust the New Yorker?

To be clear, all of the facts in that piece are in the public domain in other forms of media.

I am making two claims:

1) the author had a a point of view and agenda prior to writing a single word of the article

2) the author found no shortage of support for their agenda

To answer your question directly, as a rule I do not "trust" media outlets, including the New Yorker, and have no expectation of neutral reporting on such topics as this.

Again, I have made no claim on whether or not I trust Sam Altman.
