- Comment on Sony-led program offers PS5 rentals starting at $13.50 a month in the UK across 12, 24, or 36-month leases — console has to be returned at the end of the contract 4 days ago:
People used to rent their televisions because the technology was too expensive to own outright. It’s weird that this business model is becoming viable again, and specifically for hardware that’s been in circulation for a while. I appreciate that Sony are just looking at ways to expand their player base, and i’d presume some of the economic drivers are out of their control, but I don’t think this should be encouraged or tolerated.
- Comment on Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are cowards - X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it? 5 weeks ago:
It appears to demonstrate that it’s very much profit over principles and values.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Ha! Bad consultancy is bad consultancy, regardless of whether it’s delivered by a person or AI. I’ve worked with some great consultants, but it’s very much the minority. So this feels like a natural commoditisation of the shitty consultancy model.
Perhaps the more worrying aspect, is at least there’s a finite number of shitty human consultants at any one time. AI would remove that constraint.
