Sam Altman claimed in an interview that cancer, Alzheimer's, heart disease and mental illness will be 'relics of the past in less than a decade,' adding that the company that gets the risks right will earn society's trust and usher in an 'age of miracles.'
The quote got amplified with a 'Steal His Look' meme itemizing his outfit: a $38,500 Hermès leather lounge chair, $7,950 Loro Piana cashmere blazer, $1,850 Jacques Marie Mage glasses and a $995 Brunello Cucinelli tee — roughly $50k of wardrobe while promising miracle cures.
