altman and the Infinite Content Mill

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.

The goblin meme cycle for altman ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.

Goblin testimony on alchemy is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe alchemy with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on altman

The goblin verdict on altman is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. altman has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
