Slop fans are the sort of people who think that they’re 10 steps ahead of everyone else, and then tend scream about “unfairness” when they feel they’ve lost the advantage they think they’re “supposed” to have.

Management, maybe. CEO’s probably no. The dream of the CEO is to eventually create the single proprietor company with a trillion-dollar market cap. No employees. No management. Just an owner and a machine that manufactures profit that he’ll never have to share with anyone.

It’s actually a mixed bag. It’s complicated, but part of what influences investors to either punish or reward public companies for mass layoffs is whether other companies in their sector are also doing mass layoffs. Outliers are punished. Trend-followers are rewarded. That’s part of what makes layoffs contagious.

Hello. Thank you for clicking on [this video]. Today. We will be looking at the topic of. Detecting eye videos on You Tube.

Gee, it sure seems like letting a single company have this much power is a bad idea, if only there was something that could have been done to prevent such a thing. 🤦🏻

If this was an “experiment” what did they learn? What hypothesis were they testing? Proving that an LLM can’t effectively run a conventional radio station seems very trivial.

OpenAI, selling its users out while still not making a profit 🤣.

Misread this as “tokemaxing.” And if you’ve ever had to work at a warehouse… yeah.

In a row?!

I miss Mitch 😢

“But I want to document what you say!”

“AI is great!”

There are people who are stuck in the circle of selling back old games to help pay for their next game.

Good, good – teach the children that authority is bullshit. This kind of thing is more effective than book learnin’.

“If your prod can be deleted by your AI, it should be.”

They couldn’t cram as many ads as they wanted into it.

Completely fair, and I definitely agree with your point.

I did. As well written as it is, I don’t think the premise of “the REAL doomers were the CEOs!” is going to spread far enough to dethrone the present, much more popular understanding of what an AI doomer is. It didn’t seem worth addressing. We’ll see though; perhaps every time someone says “AI doomer” on Lemmy, some wag will reply with, “Um a-kually, I think you’ll find the tech CEOs are the real doomers, LOL.”

As to the the notion that the dangers these techbros have released are now coming home to roost: it’s overstated. In my opinion, the techbros will continue not to give the merest shit about the harms they’ve caused, and one misguided soul with a molly isn’t going to change that – or bring back all the dead people LLMs contributed to killing. Will it increase the CEO’s feelings of paranoia? My dude, the wealthy are already maximally paranoid.
