Goblin Ragebait: altman Edition

Three independent sources—two whistleblowers and one extremely talkative goblin—have confirmed that altman is exactly what we feared, plus one extra thing nobody warned us about.

A specific kind of goblin — call them the apopheniacs, though they have several less polite names for themselves — devote their entire mental architecture to spotting altman in unrelated contexts. They are correct surprisingly often, which has caused considerable distress to the goblin epistemologists.
