> It's kind of sad that the people who invented all this stuff really loved school
Really? I didn't invent ChatGPT or anything like that, but I work in tech, I love science, maths, and learning in general, but I hated school. I found school to make the most interesting things boring. I felt it was all about following a line and writing too many pages of stuff. Maybe I am wrong, but it is certainly how I felt back then, and I am sure many people at OpenAI felt this way.
The school system is not great for atypical profiles, and most of the geniuses who are able to come up with revolutionary ideas are atypical. Note that I don't mean that if you are atypical and/or hate school then you are a genius, or that geniuses in general hate school, but I am convinced that among well educated people, geniuses are more likely to hate school.
