- Comment on Why I Think the AI Bubble Will Not Burst 6 days ago:
After spinning up some LLMs and image generating tools, I realized the hardware consumes a lot of electricity, and even 12GB VRAM sometimes wasn’t enough. On top of that, these AI programs also use a lot of system RAM. Now imagine being a big company like OpenAI or Grok with millions of users. How much GPU power and electricity would it take to keep their service running? That’s why these companies are seeking lots of investment.
Not a bubble because: it actually uses the amount of energy they claim? No one thinks they’re lying about that.
these AI investors know what they’re doing
LOOOOLOLOL. I think there are some initial investors who, in the beginning, legitimately thought it would be a good deal. At this point, the investments are driven by hype, and investors know they are, but they’re gambling that they can ride it to the top without being caught holding the bag. That’s why it will collapse violently. Because the moment it starts going down, everyone is going to dump it.
Of course, AI-generated content is polluting the internet like never before. But the problem is that you still like or share these AI slop, making them go viral.
Okay so we’re now: changing the topic entirely, while blaming users for the poisoning of the information database that is the internet.
So it’s a 2 paragraph blog post that doesn’t even address it’s own title.

LOL imagine banning an account from an organization that just find you 130 million Euros and having the gall to pretend like it’s not about the fine…
Why even bother? Who is going to believe that?

Honestly maybe that’s a good thing? AI seems to generally be more in touch with reality than anyone in the federal gov.

Not later than anyone else that hopped on the chat gpt bandwagon.

Sure, but I did specifically say mobile video surveillance. Pretty sure their goal is to reduce the friction of taking out your phone to start capturing a video.
I’ve already ended a friendship over these stupid things.

I edited it to add the link, before you even replied to it.
The only “other sources” is the one OP included.

Meta (the company hilariously rebranded with this non-sense as their foundation) has moved on to the next grift: AI and mobile surveillance devices.

Much like ActivityPub, it’s just a protocol, and it is whatever you make it.

- Comment on Is Pixelfed sawing off the branch that the Fediverse is sitting on? 1 week ago:
The Fediverse has plenty of problems but…this ain’t it.
A bigger problem would be the inevitable outcome of what happened with Instagram; people just post pictures of text to get more reach (and probably also to circumvent Mastodon’s stupid character limits).
It’s a stupid and arbitrary limitation, but I digress.
- Comment on Proton launches privacy-first alternative to Excel and Google Sheets 1 week ago:
I use Proton because they are no longer a “VPN company”. They are slowly rolling out a suite of privacy tools that compete with Google’s Workspace (or whatever the hell they’re calling it these days).
If you want a “VPN company” I would recommend Mullvad.

I haven’t provided any arguments because this isn’t an argument, it’s a discussion. I haven’t made an affirmative position either way, at any time. I’m just asking questions and learning. Sorry if that offends you.

Sure, and there’s more that goes into telling if someone is unhealthy than just looking at their blood oxygen levels or heart rate or arrhythmia, but these are still valuable indicators that we already track and look for symptoms pointing to a potential issue.
