My local supermarket asks for access to all your personal information in perpituity for the rest of time, for any purpose, just to apply. It is part of a very large chain.

3D artist here, generative AI models are great at making work that looks super impressive while being completely unuseable for most applications, I suspect this is what most tech workers find too.

I think we’re past profitable mattering at this point, even if the next model of chatGPT causes your eyes to bleed after prolonged use they’ll make it profitable by forcing its use anywhere and everywhere no matter how inappropriate it is for any given application.

We’re already there with some products like cars and phones where we just get told what to want and ignored if we disagree.

Or you just create a new timeline each time so you can’t actually mess up your original timeline.

Everything that is now a DLC or microtransaction was instead some cool secret you could find or unlock, the games were smaller but that discovery meant they FELT so much bigger.

The vibe of the first one was so good, I think 2/3 had more fun characters in terms of just having interesting/fun kits but the first game will always be my favourite for the overall tone.

I’ll switch to legacy systems before I pay for a subscription service.

Externalized cost = free
As far as any and every large company is concerned anyway.

This is honestly one of the scarier parts about the rhetoric, they’re basically implying they would happily enslave a sentient being.

I read win at first as well but then when the sentence started saying positive things I knew I had misread it.

Strong magnet or some kind of taser on a long stick, ez takedown.

I’ve been thinking about this lately in regards to how shitty food is getting, with shrinkflation a lot of stuff now has smaller portions sizes but the calorie count usually remains the same, presumably due to adding more sugar to mask the taste of replacing ingrediants with cheaper alternatives, fresh produce isn’t spared either as most meat and vegetables turn a lot sooner and are sometimes already beginning to turn the same day you buy them. The result is a decreasing ability to have more than a day or twos worth of fresh ingrediants on hand and frozen food (or worse) just getting simultaniously less health and less filling.

Its early adoption problems in the same way as putting radium in toothpaste was. There are legitimate, already growing uses for various AI systems but as the technology is still new there’s a bunch of people just trying to put it in everything, which is innevitably a lot of places where it will never be good (At least not until it gets much better in a way that LLMs fundementally never can be due to the underlying method by which they work)

Nah chat GPT is just a verbal mirror, so the idiot puts his complete lack of legal knoweldge in and gets a complete lack of legal knowledge out.

I just realised that the tankie point of view may be described as thinking countries should get what they deserve based on past wrongs regardless of how many people get thrown into the meat grinder due to the current reality.

I think they did one of those replace all the characters to repeat the show and then immediately get canceled because thats never worked final (12th) seasons?

Remember Disney can legally murder you if you watched Disney+ one time.

A completely pragmatic soultion with minnimum effort to implement and no R&D cost? Sounds completely useless for generating value for shareholders.

I felt like the thunderhead was pretty great but had its flaws, it was wayyyy too comfortable with destroying non-human life even if it did it in a pragmatic way.

Presumably this is marketed at Elon Musk so he can pretend to be a gamer.
