Can someone explain the Pale Horse reference?

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 39 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (18 children)

In the Bible's book of revelations, John (the author) is witnessing the end of the world and sees four horsemen being unleashed upon the world to spread a curse/trial/whatever wherever they ride. Each horseman brings with them something different- famine, disease, war (or strife), and death. Death is the last, IIRC, and rides upon a pale horse. I think that's what they're referencing. This person is saying that openAI is going to die soon.

So many low-hanging fruits. Unbelievable fruits. You wouldn’t believe how low they’re hanging.
