Says everything I need to know about the change.

All the joy of Steam, pumped directly into my eyeballs? Yes, please.

common: a technology that can be useful in some very specific niches, but is advertised as a solution to all problems in the world and

It is disappointing that, of the three, only NFTs fulfilled the promise and have solved literally every problem*.

Indeed! The old magiks were good enough. Thye young ones today could do well to learn some lines of command!

You put your hands on your hips!

A dozen, a hundred…? It’s impossible to resist.

yoCcM has other problems, beyond Kirk’s self conscious fears.

Yea. Slightly modified - “If conditions are now so prefect now that 8 billion humans can ask their computer nicely to program itself, and it works, then why is non-shit-tier software still vanishingly rare?”

Too much risk of fireball ear.

It’s fair game after getting legally married, though.

Not my living room. Nice try, fuckers.

Why does it cost so much to engineer new models?

We need at least two massive quantum leaps in quality before this stuff can be long-term profitable; and there probably simply aren’t two quantum leaps left in the current pathways being explored.

But turning off all the bots, contracts, and lies would cause the investment money to stop immediately, rather than later.

Everyone perpetrating this scam wants to cash out a tiny bit more before it crashes.

Right. But Fermi’s Paradox applies.

Everyone is buying and selling software miracle cure…but all of the software itself is still exaclty as healthy as a con artists prize race horse (not healthy, and actually a mule).

And a lot more money. And so much more power and water. And more data. And more money, too.

7,300 files or 48,000 files - something stinks.

I get it, code fast go brrr! How convenient, as long as no one gives a flying fuck about maintenance costs.

Folks need to get good, and cut out pretending that a slop mountain is a real contribution.

“I apologize for the length of this letter. If I had twice the time - or if my tools were not shit tier - it would have been half the length.”

Abraham Lincoln, I bet.

Why does Riker get to celebrate his alone with full fanfare?

Rank has it’s privileges.

Back when marketing wisdom taught us that alienating 50% of potential buyers (it’s only for boys!) was the sure fire way to boost sales.

Still a cool toy, though.

It’s more that they want to say “AI Dangerous”. It’s step 2 in the oligopoly playbook:

1. ”It’s a perfectly safe miracle solution. Invest with us or miss out."
2. "It turns out it’s really dangerous. We need the governments to make tough laws that coincidentally prevent start-up companies from competing with us, (while we don’t sell you any RAM chips.)
3. “Remember those miraculous investment returns we promised, the evil governments forced us to spend them all on lawyers and stuff. Sorry about that. But the good news is…”
4. “We have a new safe sure-fire miracle solution (to something new and different). Invest with us, or miss out!”

“Except your four fastest ships?!”

“Well, naturally, not those four.”

I have decided it i’s time to simply quote obvious movie villain lies in response to headlines from oligarch illegal merger corporate assholes.

If I had a nickel for every time that happened! Well…I guess I would have ten cents. But you have to admit, it’s weird that it happened twice.
