And given that this garbage isn’t profitable and has no hope of becoming profitable, he’s soon to be the world’s first former trillionaire.

A few months ago, I would have said that taking the island would be relatively easy, given the size and strength of the US military, but keeping it would be the hard part.

Now I don’t know if we could even take it. These fucking assholes have hollowed out our military.

When did tweeting military plans get normalized?

It’s not a theory. A theory would have some evidence or reasoning behind it, even with the colloquial version of the word.

No, what’s actually happening is a propaganda campaign. A really obvious one. And the same rich people proposing this “theory” are the ones directly and intentionally funding it.

Consider my downvote yours. :)

The text on the whiteboard looks fake, her hand is weird, her arm is stumpy, the bar appears to be named “Bajmq” or something judging by the blurry text on the window, the background is blurred in ways that clearly disguise artifacts (and no actual camera of even moderate quality would do that these days)…

Edit: Oh, and don’t forget the background people. Ugh.

It’s slop. And the account posting it appears to be a bot.

Real answer: “WTF am I doing in an AI-generated rage bait picture?”

Downvote the OP and report it.

Difficult, since the picture is AI-generated rage bait bullshit. Look at her hand.

First thought: How did I end up in an AI-generated bullshit pic designed to inspire anger against hard-working service employees of restaurants?

Second thought: Fuck aaaaaaaall the way off with this intentionally divisive garbage.

I love how you guys keep declaring the war all but over, and then Ukraine keeps kicking the shit out of you because they didn’t get the memo.

You know how you guys could actually play nice? Fuck off back to your own country. Maybe then Ukraine will stop kicking the shit out of you.

The market is insane. The valuations for stocks connected in any way to “AI” have no connection to reality whatsoever.

Trump to manipulate the stock market again

Fixed that headline.

Hey, could you edit this to not have the entire body of the article?

As others have pointed out, the compute cost of inference is only one small part of the puzzle. All the frontier model providers - which OpenRouter gives you access to - are massively raising their prices in desperate bids to recoup the cost of model generation in the first place.

There’s really no hiding from the token apocalypse unless you’re running a model on your own hardware.

The unique thing about GitHub Copilot (and all the other vibe-coding tools) is that they’re speed-running the playbook because this shit is not profitable. It can’t be. Their costs scale up with usage, unlike every other business that can take advantage of economies of scale, so they’ve skipped the slow, steady enshittification phase and jumped directly into the “squeeze blood from this stone to keep the scam going a little longer” phase.

Yeah, my completely non-techie family members could become “hackers” easily that way.

Out of curiosity, is his work on any of the “frontier” models? Or is he developing the small, open-weight models you can run on sufficiently beefy personal systems? There’s a world of difference there in terms of ethics.

I work with a few AI engineers myself, and I don’t think I know anyone who hates companies like OpenAI and Anthropic more than they do.

Dude… Your kid’s a supervillain.

(I joke, but still… AI? Wish it was something less destructive.)

Understandable. He was apparently very sick that day, and obviously also very old.

Still wish he was president instead of the shit-gibbon, though.
