Oh ho ho, not just in public my friend
With the sheer amount of money that the rich are throwing at OpenAI via investment firms, they don’t need nor want to charge imo. The fact that they’re being built into Apple’s ecosystem and are getting name-dropped to people inside of iOS is kinda what their investors want.
It’s the age old “walmart opens and operates at a loss for 2 years to force others out of business, then jacks the price” model.
Investors want them to cement this as The AI company & brand so that once it gets giant and starts to be profitable just by being the biggest gorilla in the room, the shares they bought are worth more.
So what I’m trying to say is that our version of capitalism is perfect and makes lots of sense and is in no way insane and degenerate.
Ah crap, you’re right - that’s another video of his, apologies
Yeah this is what I’ve heard as well. Aging Wheels goes into it a bit in this review of a concept car, kinda neat - it has pedals like a bicycle but the energy they add is a tiny fraction of what the thing needs to move.
Edit: oops, I’m combining two of his vids in my head, this one is just solar not pedals.
Yeah that’s exactly what I’m getting at - when does a tool stop being a tool and start being a non-human creator? It’ll be interesting to see how courts suss it out…
Ahh, interesting. I almost admitted to not knowing that when I posted haha - I’m not hugely familiar with how image ai works, wasn’t sure it would be possible for one person to produce enough training material under current tech.
Interesting to think about it as a hypothetical, though.
Honestly I’d need it to not be 100% permanent. If the earth gets obliterated I’m not interested in swirling in the void forever. If a government figures it out and keeps me locked to a table for decades, I want to be able to die.
If you give me the ability to concentrate and stop existing, I’m in.
This was how I learned my SO’s dead name - i avoided it for like 9 months then she had to venmo me for something. 😭
Oh well, mission accomplished by waiting as long as possible to learn it; I’ve only known her by her proper name for so long that her dead name is meaningless to me. 🙌
Oh no who could have seen this coming?!
Best I can do is them banding together to fuck normal people over and extract as much cash as they can
That’ll be why they just pushed a “agree to our new license with arbitrage or your tv is a brick” update
Yarrr
If people don’t wake up, “deregulation” is going to defang the fda, epa, and other agencies that were set up because people were being hurt and killed.
If you don’t know about it, look up “the poison squad” - people were putting things like borax in food because it made it prettier, it took a guy literally feeding volunteers various things people were adding to food to prove they were poison. There were no rules for what you could sell as food.
If you want to feel really sad, look up “swill milk” - babies died being fed it because it had such little nutritional value. It often had chalk mixed in to make it appear less watery.
Capitalism encourages people to hurt others for personal gain. We need these organizations to keep a lid on the worst of us.
My brain wants to read this as the correct pronunciation twice instead of the phrase
BEES!?!
Yup, they started to force me to drive to an office where none of the people I work with are, now that’s the only place I do work for them.
Used to think about and work on projects after hours if I found them interesting or realized a solution I hadn’t thought of. They’ve shown me they don’t care about my comfort, so I don’t feel the need to care about their problems either. The work will be there tomorrow.
They’re so divorced from reality that they think we’d just give up extra hours of our lives for commuting and keep up the same work output. Fuckin nope, going switch to doing the bare minimum it takes to keep you signing checks.
