Any AI service that people (and to some extent companies) can afford to pay for today is being heavily subsidized. Will that last forever? I really don't know how those economics work, but I know that bubbles do burst…
It's in the best interest for AI companies to gobble up tokens. I feel like every new release - Fable, etc - is just a way to extract more tokens/money.
>architecture design and LLM just exposes how bad people are at designing dynamic architectures Speak for yourself. A lot of people have great abilities at designing "dynamic architectures" and anything else an LLM is…
There are likely way more smaller boats with starlink than there are massive cruise ships with starlink.

I quit reddit because of all of this nonsense. After 15 years on reddit, my life has been much better for quitting it. Reddit is a cesspool.
>I notice another trend were a lot of AI naysayers haven't really spent a ton of time getting intimately familiar with AI. I don't think that's really true, it's more your feels than anything. I've noticed this thing…
Not just cruise ships, but practically every boat with a bed in it. People sailing on small boats all around the world have starlink now. It's kind of a game changer in a lot of ways for small boats.
Most people hyping their AI use mention the short-term gains without taking into account how it affects overall long-term success. We are creatures of convenience.
>Sometimes I race AI i give it a prompt /bug to fix and at the sametime im greping/symboling through the codebase and tryto fix it myself. AI isn’t always faster. +1 - this is also my experience. I also "race" the AI on…
Got it, so all those advances in medicine we were promised in exchange for higher electricity costs, global warming, and other pitfalls of AI were bunk?
They are trying to make it as unpleasant to drive as possible, and I don't really blame them - cars are a big factor in climate change, smog, etc. I gave up driving in the 90's because it was pretty obvious even back…
Or like Meta spending $90 billion on "the metaverse" only to see 300,000 users at its peak. That comes out to spending $300,000 per user.
You're right, but you'd be lucky if a real human actually reviews any code. At my company, merging a PR still requires 2 humans to press "Approve" but I've been instructed that I don't need to read the PR, I only need…
If some people want to make their own gun, then some people will also make their own 3D printer. This joke of a law isn't going to stop any 3D printed handguns from getting made, it will only add one more relatively…
I heard about vitamin D during covid, and that and hand sanitizer are the only 2 things we still do. I haven't been sick for a few years. Before covid (and vitamin D supplements), it was at least 25 days sick every…
Apple is also on the W3C committee that approves new specs, where they abuse that power to prevent any spec that might cut into their app business from moving forward.
Apple will never implement anything in a browser that could make a web app as capable as a native mobile app, they are simply too greedy. Firefox typically doesn't implement these things unless they have to because they…
One guy spent 37 days in jail for re-posting a thing trump said ("We have to get over it" in reference to a school shooting), after Charlie Kirk was killed. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg7pyjxjxrvo

It's not good news if the AI companies have to raise their prices 10x to deliver the same service while paying down the crippling debt they've incurred getting everyone hooked on AI. If my mechanic started charging 10x…
They're going to need quite a lot more ads to try to sell stuff to people who don't have jobs anymore because of all the datacenters built for AI.
The datacenter is still heating the atmosphere and consuming enormous amounts of electricity, which also heats the atmosphere. And it still won't solve our global climate disaster and is far more likely to contribute to…
Except very few people will actually be able to buy beetroot or anything else because there won't be any jobs. The wealth is all concentrating at the top into very few hands.
I'm paying about $0.19/hr and using half that power just for a large spinning RAID, running some VMs and security cameras. And I'm reconsidering my digital extravagance because of the electric bill. You probably make…
