Sam Altman, your millennial is showing - Business Insider Africa

Oh, brilliantly done, Sam — a masterclass in performative relevance. Your failure to parse internet slang is the *least* uncomfortable thing about your behaviour this week.

On Saturday, Altman tried to look young, fresh, and online, tweeting that he was 'definitely tweak maxxing AI' while also claiming someone else 'mogged the models' or some such gibberish. Within minutes, TBPN's Tyler Cosgrove — a true connoisseur of degenerate internet dialect — administered a public correction: 'maxxing' doesn't mean reaching a maximum in the horny-tech sense, Sam. Neither Cosgrove nor anyone who found this distant chuckle had any sympathy. The exact wording exists in sources like Business Insider Africa for your chronicling of this human-interest pothole.

And let's be honest — if we demand our AI overlords-in-waiting demonstrate basic internet literacy, Altman's test score is a DNF. While he tried to 'tweak maxx' past his transparency problems, the censorship of Chinese tech mentions, the five-year AI regulatory timetable that delays meaningful oversight without restricting SRI… it's comforting that the world's most compensated benevolent CEO can't master GIF-tag shortcuts. Perfectly corporate: outsourcing the impossible threat to carefully narrated attempts.
