I enjoy being busy doing stuff I want to do for myself, not for some billionaire cunt
How would Sam Altman have any idea what humans enjoy?

The intent is to provide workers with a sense of pride and accomplishment for increasing stakeholder value.
As for hours, we selected initial values based upon data from the free market and other adjustments made to milestone rewards before hiring. Among other things, we’re looking at average per-worker income earn rates on a daily basis, and we’ll be making constant adjustments to ensure that workers have challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and of course attainable via employment.
We appreciate the candid feedback, and the passion the community has put forth around the current topics here on Lemmy, our forums and across numerous social media outlets.
Our team will continue to make changes and monitor community feedback and update everyone as soon and as often as we can.

Hey, quick question: will Work™ eventually include the healthcare, housing, and free time to enjoy life benefits that we’ve all been hearing so much about?

Yeah I end up learning new things a lot of the time, not something that work always gives me. Mean sometimes depends on the programming issue. As much as I love learning new programming stuff it’s fun is also learn about other hobbies or random other things. For examples I’ve done calculus courses because I never understood it well, still there but I tried basic first year university again. Also blender for 3d art, not an artist but thought it’d be neat. It was. Even plain programming learning unity and new frameworks that I’d never use at work (Maui was one) to see how they were.
Then there’s music, drone flying (way more fun with full control drones I am still figuring out the sims though) as other things. I want to keep busy but I definitely don’t want to keep working at the code my work has me do, ugh visual basic for starters.
So he can go screw himself if that’s how he thinks people want to spend their time vs what they could spend time on. Talk about privileged.

No need to ask the workers what we want, of course.
cavitationfetishist01@quokk.au 2 months ago
No they just made a large worker model and asked it.
nullify3112@lemmy.world 2 months ago
It will start hacking regular people it considers “workers” to try to understand what they want
HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Heavens no, that would take effort on their part!

Being busy?
And i HAVE to be busy with work?
It couldnt be with all my hobbies and social appointments instead?
apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Busy /= ground to the bone for 40 hours a week for life.

Sam Altman talking about humans again… Lol.

I think it’s much more likely that they don’t want us to have the time to organize.

Hail St. Luigi, full of righteousness. May your wrath descend upon this CEO that he may feel the pain he has caused in his due turn. Amen.

Hobbyless behavior.
Ougie@lemmy.world 2 months ago
This is not talked about enough! How deeply sad and disturbed hobbyless individuals ascend to positions of power and make everyone’s lives worse from there.

For these fucks "work" is golfing or being driven from one speech to another while having their every desire fulfilled, so, so of course they don't consider work to be something unenjoyable and are shocked that anyone feels differently
xenomor@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I enjoy being busy…doing the things that I want to do, not the things that i have to do to earn income. What an asshole.
Ozymati@lemmy.nz 2 months ago
I like being busy with my own projects not the ones I do so I can live indoors and eat

TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I don’t know about you guys, but plenty of people are workaholic because it distracts them from their own lives outside of work. I’m not judging those who do this, but that’s the baseline from which oligarchs use to justify their desire for control of humanity
Siethron@lemmy.world 2 months ago
From what I’ve seen it’s about 1/20 people. Not sure I’d call that plenty of people, but it is a vocal minority

People like work. People rarely get to work at job. Result? People hate job.
Gib better job!

I enjoy working and all. But it would be such a huuuge quality of life improvement to only work 6 hours a day or 4 day a week.
wizbiz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
Both of those
Kjell@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I think it depends a lot on what type of work it is and ones interest. I’m a sw developer and there are definitely days where I enjoy working and making progress on an interesting problem.
smh@slrpnk.net 2 months ago
Yes, I prize the “interesting problem” days. On the other hand, there are some days that I’m really not feeling it. Those days are such a slog.

I think someone should firebomb his house again or him personally.
supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 2 months ago
He definitely wont if you hack his personal AI and poison it with information about how humans behave that is blatantingly absurd to everyone but Altman.

While we’re at it, should we also send the gun manufacturer CEO to prison when someone kills themself with a gun? The drug manufacturer CEO when someone intentionally ODs in a medicine?
What if someone takes poison meant for rats, should that CEO go to prison too?
Why would we hold someone responsible for someone else’s actions? I don’t think these people are good people, but maybe we should be realistic about who is to blame here.

Guns, in the most literal sense, have no ability to vocalize to a suicidal teenager that the world would be a better place without them and give them advice on their noose tying skills.
These literally aren’t even in the same ballpark.
