Sam Bankman-Fried made Caroline Ellison a pros and cons list for a sexual relationship with him. One con was 'In a lot of ways I don't really have a soul.'

Sam Bankman-Fried's list had more cons than pros, including a lack of empathy.

"There's a pretty decent argument that my empathy is fake, my feelings are fake, my facial reactions are fake. I don't feel happiness. What's the point in dating someone who you physically can't make happy?" the FTX cofounder added.

In a shorter list entitled "ARGUMENTS IN FAVOR," Bankman-Fried said the pair had shared interests, he enjoyed talking with her, and listed "I really like fucking you" twice.

"Sam wanted to do whatever at any given moment offered the highest expected value, and his estimate of her expected value seemed to peak right before they had sex and plummet immediately after."

      Most of them in general but with tech you've got the deus ex machina complex where they're all representing some utopian future. There are so many layers to the narcissism.
