Looks legit.
A tweet by Paul Graham with the text "Looks legit" accompanied by an image, but the image is not accessible for analysis.
Background
- @paulg is Paul Graham, co-founder of Y Combinator (the startup accelerator) and a prominent figure in Silicon Valley tech culture.
- This tweet appears to be about an image claiming OpenAI was founded by someone named "Timothy Donald Cook" — an obvious fabricated name playing on Tim Cook (Apple's CEO). Graham is sarcastically calling it "legit" to mock how easily fake or absurd claims circulate online, particularly on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter).
- The post reflects the ongoing problem of misinformation and impersonation in tech discourse, where AI-generated or deliberately fake content can spread rapidly.
