  Most AI companies will die quite dramatically, but the big players will weather the storm and soak up all the rewards that come from monopolising on such technology. The ultimate product can turn to slop if you’re the only game in town.

  No one will ever stop chasing AI. It’s the holy grail of corporate efficiency, just you… your shareholders… and some unpaid robot slaves. The dream.

  Everyone without a 5090 should immediately refund the game and use these remarks as the justification.

  Yeah… victory belonging to the person with the widest reach and deepest pockets rather than the originator of the material/idea is one way to ensure that all creatives become paupers. This is one of those many on-paper ideas that, without the upheaval of pretty much every other established human social structure, would be awful in practice.

  Because I guess nothing is ever good enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaked emails link NHS data privatiser Palantir to Jeffrey Epstein⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It does seem like the muttering, scrawny weirdo would be the first to get put out on their arse post-apocalypse by… literally anyone currently in their employ.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaked emails link NHS data privatiser Palantir to Jeffrey Epstein⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry, it’s cool, he has a great bunker and a few private islands to chill on. If he doesn’t put you on the “cull” list.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaked emails link NHS data privatiser Palantir to Jeffrey Epstein⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s cofounder Peter Thiel is basically a doomsday culter who wants to be the one to herald doomsday for most of the population.

  more money than you or I will ever see in our lifetimes

  I mean, I feel like you need to expand your comparison a little as the amount that you’ll see in your lifetime is such a minute grain of sand on a beech compared to corporate profits. The money they made today, hell, in the last hour… minute… will dwarf the amount that you will likely see.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MAGA Puts Wikipedia in Its Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ve had problems with our politics for as long as politics has existed. It’s a miracle we have anything nice, and they’ve tried to claw back and there have been people undermining anything nice we have on Day 2+ of us getting it.

  Yeah… whatever this is doesn’t care if you’re seeking to kill yourself, but does care if you ask something that isn’t state sanctioned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta appoints anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist Robby Starbuck as AI bias advisor⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Meta seems to really want to overcorrect… they demanded Meta remove their diversity policies, so Meta said that they’d do one better and just start stringing people up in the office.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI will not disclose GPT-5’s energy use. It could be higher than past models⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I get the distinct impression that most of the focus for GPT5 was making it easier to divert their overflowing volume of queries to less expensive routes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI will not disclose GPT-5’s energy use. It could be higher than past models⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Herr defr, AI. No, seriously.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Techcrunch reports that AI coding tools have "very negative" gross margins. They're losing money on every user.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Basically, the only reason some of these vaguely functional AI tools actually work okay is because they haven’t been ruined with inevitable monetisation yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Firefox really does seem to have lost the plot… they don’t seem to go five minutes without slamming their dick in another drawer. It starts to look like they’re in to it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would they bury the option… are they being paid to include this AI feature or something…?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It does seem bizarre and woefully inefficient to run this process on-the-fly locally.

  I guess that’s why I didn’t say that, or agree with that framing.

  Well sure, the real reason is always data harvesting.

  If I am paying for my account personally, with a card in my name, what more do they need?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Fans of things that are provisioned by Spotify.
