Comment on Microsoft’s $440 billion wipeout, and investors angry about OpenAI’s debt, explained
gustofwind@lemmy.world 13 hours agoI 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

It’s already been several years. Tesla had an actual product that people wanted. Yes, they’ve been doing their best of late to torpedo their market share and brand name but at one point they were doing what they set out to do. Open AI has never done what they said they would do.

Kinda but also not entirely. I know a lot of people who use ChatGPT and other AIs at work and it does basically exactly what they want and just gets better
I’m not a proponent but the naysayer doomers are almost as wrong as the tech evangelists
Is it overvalued? Sure
Is it worthless? Absolutely not

That’s cool. I have yet to find a use case for AI. Am I doing it wrong or are they just bad with computers?

I am with gustofwind here. I use AI to help me quickly draft up mindless policies, then read through it and edit it where needed. It is a lot faster than any typing I can do.
I also use it to help me find configs for stuff I deploy, but I make sure it attaches the source link for me, so I can read the original source docs and keep a sane approach to what I am doing.
Again, I also think it is way overvalued, but to say it has not helped me build successful stuff over the past 2 years would be a lie. My 2c

Yes, why do you care about the pointless corporate crap you produce . Ai slop is the desired result you are just letting your pride get in the way.
