We here at $brand think your car should be more than just a car… that’s why we’re now including a panini maker in all models! And no, you can’t take it out of the trunk. Just don’t use it if you don’t want it, silly!

It was either that or sit in a corner dissociating to survive holidays with my family.

Spotify provides a real, tangible service. I pay for access to music I get access to music.

What service does an LLM actually provide? They can’t be relied on for accurate information, they can’t reason, the only thing they seem to be able to do is psychologically manipulate their users. That makes money now, but in six months? A year? We’re already seeing usage fall despite some of the wealthiest companies on the planet burning unfathomable amounts of money.

Spotify is a music streaming service with subscription fees generating recurring revenue, it would be fine in a world without an investor class obsessed with infinite growth. Uber is to taxis what crypto is to banks, essentially exploiting a gap in regulations to undercut an existing market.

“AI” is a solution desperately looking for a problem to justify all the money and resources being wasted on it.

Information should be free. Don’t feel bad because someone abused something good towards a bad end.

The problem here isn’t archives, it’s AI and the people behind it.

Capitalism, shortsighted? Say it ain’t so!

That’s an entirely different conversation, and a strawman to boot. You clearly aren’t interested in actually discussing this. I can show you study after study proving that a bias exists against equally skilled applicants with an “ethnic sounding” name, but why bother, you’re not serious and I’m done engaging with you.

You should really ask yourself why you see raising up one group as necessarily lowering another. One doesn’t follow from the other.

Being able to admit that certain groups are systemically disadvantaged and wanting to do something about it is literally the opposite of racism, what are you talking about?

And, this cannot be overstated, fucking stupid.

Not that you’re wrong, but you can clearly see Bing in the screenshot lol.

Isn’t that essentially what the Zoom CEO was suggesting a few months ago?

It (in theory) prevents signal tampering of any kind, which would include injecting advertisements into the stream.

Are you familiar with the concept of a captive market?
