sooooo a site that says it'll do something but in turn won't actually do it.

companies already post ghost jobs via AI on linkedin/indeed/etc so there's no need for this. No one, other than the Linkedin Tech Bros/Wannabe middle managers, is going to use this.

Feels like Sam is grasping at straws right now to keep his shit afloat.

This is the only line you really need from the entire atricle:

That’s the idea behind our new OpenAI Certifications.

It is an age-old idea. People were getting Cisco, Microsoft, Oracle, AWS certificates to pad their CVs for ages. This is a legitimate way for a person to put a well known logo on their page and an easy way for companies to make a few bucks. OpenAI wants that as well.

The certificate means nothing. The course for it teaches nothing. But a CV with an OpenAI logo on it looks better than without and OpenAI wants people to pay for the privilege.
