I don't understand how that metaphor applies here, you seem to contradict yourself. The mathematicians are mad at openai. If the mathematicians are the black ants and OpenAI is shaking the box, who are the red ants?

Everyone that will now pick sides. Just wait, I’m already seeing it on Reddit.

  • Gotcha. In that case, the "ants" part of the metaphor is truly fitting since these people just like to comment online and are mostly insignificant. Unlike the ants, they can evolve and become the mathematicians or get a job at a frontier AI lab but then they wouldn't be spewing so many comments.

    Don't worry about what they write, they just want to feel emotions from any news article.
