  I’m ready for all those tech psychos to go down, and take Tesla with them.

  Since OpenAI just announced the possibility of bankruptcy, it’s definitely coming. It’s going to be wild for whichever idiot in charge at MS to go down in history as the man who ruined one of the most powerful and integral companies on earth.

      idk, it was late last year that Sam said he expected OpenAI revenue to grow steeply, but also that if it doesn’t then the company could go bankrupt by 2027 at the latest.

        I’m here hoping the bankruptcy of OpenAi happens sooner.

    lol they havnt even put the ads in yet

    • FiniteBanjo@feddit.online ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      They don’t have a product with any actual value or use cases. The ads aren’t going to reverse that.

        I think we’re quite a long way off before they actually crash and burn, if they ever do. We have no idea how much money the ads will inject and they also receive significant government contracts and will probably get a lot more going forward

        If the market can pretend Tesla is worth so much i think it can easily sustain AI for many years

        How would that even work as well? The ads will be in the website, doesn’t most stuff run through API calls? If you force everyone to start paying per call, the business model falls apart instantly.

  Doubt that’ll happen for a few mor years unfortunately. I can’t imagine most of the hardware made for AI datacenters is compatible with consumer stuff :/
