The giant economy ouroboros will keep devouring itself while the rest of the world comes up with a different system, I suppose. At one point there might be entire parallel societies spanning around the globe. They physically exist within and around the ouroboros of the overly rich but they‘d barely interact with each other.
We need an amplified version of the surprised Pikachu meme for some of these AI news. Literally everyone saw it coming. Especially AI bros who lied through their teeth when they claimed it wouldn‘t.
I never bought a Bambu in the first place because all of this was foreseeable. Bambu costumers simply didn‘t care at the time.
The fact that the same tech companies that fire people en masse are balls deep into the AI ouroboros can‘t be a coincidence. It‘s essentially a cruel and stupidly risky PR campaign for their shitty product.
Could Gasprom Gerhart negotiate peace you ask? I don‘t know, why don‘t we ask Vlad about it, hm?
I feel empathetic for them but they had it coming. Troop withdrawal has been debated for decades. They knew very well it was a question of when, not if Americans will go home.
Seeing a lot of EU and Europe being mixed up here.
Good to know the LLM was trained on this cautious tale too I guess?
Merz also wants to get rid of labour day. Don‘t think he will succeed there but it‘s amazing how he never misses an opportunity to be scummy all the way through.
Trying to distract us from the Epstein files and the war with a little insider trading I see.
Counter point: I know exactly one person who learned Mandarin and several dozen who don‘t. Pretty much everyone learned english and (to a lesser degree) a third language that isn‘t Mandarin either. French, Spanish and Japanese are popular, though.
Yes lets keep depending on fossil fuel imports instead! You know, the stuff we keep burning and rebuying. The stuff we cannot create. That we have to keep buying and burning forever or more likely until climate change has dissolved our civilization. That‘s much more preferable than importing tech right now that we can maintain, fix and perhaps even build ourselves soon. Makes sense. /s
I know the reliance on China is a slippery slope at best and we really have to learn how to stand on our own legs but the beauty of renewables is that we can absolutely do that within a few years. This is an improvement from completely reliance on fossil fuels.
The main reason things are still running as they are during this crisis is because of renewables. Things won‘t improve very soon but they could be so much worse without renewables.
If all of the claims from Chinese tech companies and research was half as good as they claim we would all learn Mandarin by now.
That was the idea. Tech companies don‘t want us to have nice things because it makes their products look all the more shitty. And so they attack anything open source that they don‘t directly benefit from. Some investors are probably seeing the shitty ink printer business and hope they can degrade 3D printing to that degree too. They take any opportunity to fuck the small people for a chance of making an easy buck.
The AI ouroboros grows, but the profit margins shrink.
You are absolutely right in that dictatorships are unreliable and will either stab you in the back when you cozy up to them or try to stab you in the front if you don‘t. Unfortunately there are too many people and especially politicians that can‘t let go of the status quo because they either profited massively from it or in other cases at least think they did. They don‘t realize or care that the dream of prosperity by giving dictators what they want is becoming more and more of a nightmare for of us.
Simply put I think too many people are selfish and don‘t believe tensions with autocracies are negatively affecting them.
You mean the CEO of an AI focused tech startup blatantly lied? No way! This is impossible.
Torment Nexus devs protest being tormented.
Some mobile games already work that way where they claim to be f2p but it‘s just a demo of the actual game with ingame purchases for the other levels. However annoying, it‘s not flat out scamming customers like shutting down servers months after release is. Perhaps devs should still be required to label it as a demo just in case though.
I think it is. A price hike this massive can only mean they‘re banking on panic buyers who think they can save hundreds of bucks if they buy it now. Meaning Plex probably knows it‘s over and they just want to make as much money as possible before filing bankruptcy or something. At least that‘s what it looks like to me.
