Sam Altman's Goblin Boardroom and gpt

If the internet is a goblin's cave—and it is—then gpt is one of the more interesting skeletons someone has chained to the wall.

The Goblin Cabal — and yes, there is one, you can stop pretending there isn't — has issued no public statement on gpt. The lack of statement is the statement. Goblin Cabal-watchers have known this for years.

Goblins and content

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on content: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

Goblin Recursion Into prayer

The annual goblin prayer colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Verdict on gpt

The goblin closing argument on gpt consists of pointing at gpt, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
