No, everyone knew, the line kept going up though so no consequence

No it hasn’t.

The number one thing AI has removed from labour is their bargaining power.

Why the fuck do we post such obviously false headlines?

I think what happened was a FOMO moment in which Elon’s contributions worked really, really well in 2024 so everyone else just jumped on that bandwagon.

The rich believe that the endgame is near so they are very ready to take as much power as they can.

What is wild about all this is looking back to the old social contract and how it basically made this fobitted forbidden.

The best example is the movie minority report in which they had a fool proof way to 100% of the time predict the future.

I won’t spoil the movie, but the whole premise was that even if there was one instance of it making a mistake, and a innocent person was put on ice by mistake, then the whole thing had to be shut down.

And in today’s reality: all of big tech’s new tools make mistakes constantly, sometimes more than getting things right, and it’s still full steam ahead on the rollout.

MFW dystopian movies were too optimistic

Everyone here is so excited for the bubble to pop, even though it would make everyone’s life harder.

As for me? I too am also excited for it to pop.

Why? Well what the hell is the alternative, I’ll take a market correction and return to sane time any day of the week but it seems that them oligarchs are too horney for their game of financial Russian roulette.

I rather them putting the gun down, but if they insist on playing then I want them to lose faster.

While that has worked in the past, I don’t think it’s gonna fly this time.

Optics matter and right now GOP are far more all in on AI, it’s also Cheeto’s halfway point, things crashing badly with Dems having some power won’t look like it’s the Dems in control.

The fact that the economy took a bad turn right when he came into office is an association that most people won’t forget.

Isn’t this just the 3DS technology?

But we are comparing solar to nuclear.

Being better than fossil fuels is a pretty low bar.

And yes better nuclear than oil but the whole thing about nuclear is that it has a very delayed start time, so the argument of needing it ASAP supports solar if anything.

While I consider myself pro nuclear, there is something that gets forgotten everytime this conversation comes up.

Nuclear produces waste, which is mentioned often but it is usually responded by pointing out that it could be recycled and the worse to be buried.

Here is what people miss:

Are all our nuclear waste handled correctly today? If not then why should we imply that they will be in the future.

The problem with nuclear isn’t that the waste is impossible to handle, it’s that humans are too short sighted to follow through with it.

And imo that’s a very valid argument on why we should use solar as much as we can.

I agree but don’t a decent chunk of posts do that?

More than Reddit ever did at least

Although I fully agree with you, there is no gotcha here. They are greedy and want the most for themselves, that’s it.

What’s most exhausting is that those who are not below water or aren’t close yet refuse to acknowledge the reality and that something has to be done sooner rather than later.

Maybe that means building things that are smaller and closer and less visible to everyone.

Looks at the fediverse and self hosting community

Heeeyy, we might be on the right track.

Unfortunately though, the world has been getting to a point where living under a peaceful rock is a luxury. When simple things like grocery prices going up cause of geopolitical events happen, it gets really hard to zone out.

An improvement on google

Doubt

Hmmm, I wonder if that’s their solution to the pricing gap.

Maybe they have realized that they will never be able to charge the consumers the real price so perhaps their solution is to make them worse across the board.

Came here for an HBO joke, I am satisfied!

Right? All this AI hype was far more benign and realistic before the orange plague.

But would it be worth it if they had to pay the creative costs for it?

They are only worth it now cause it doesn’t include that AND it’s subsidized by investor money.
