I mean, I know this may seem alien to you, but not everyone's life is about being a corpo good-boy. I don't know what career level you are but many people got into computing because they were really interested in it, not like a grad from 2016 that majored in CS because their dad said there was money in it and they should change their major from marketing. Also, there is something to be said for having people that still actually know what a computer is. What if your friends Altman and Amodei decide to start charging actual money for these tools? Sounds incredibly unlikely, I know, but it might be useful one day to have people that still know what the stack or the heap are.
