True, and maybe I’m playing a losing game by arguing within that context, but I did want to point out that even under those conditions the “logical fallacy” doesn’t fit.

That’s horrible. I should Google for more information so I can avoid using companies involved with the military.

Pointing out hypocrisy is not whataboutism. Whataboutism is when you bring up a separate topic as a criticism to distract from the original topic. For example, if you make fun of my cooking and I bring up your drawing skills in response, that’s whataboutism. If you suck at cooking and yet bring up me sucking at cooking, that’s just pointing fingers and trying to paint that as a negative for someone else when you possess the same deficiency.

I’m just pointing it out bro, nothing more bro, just mentioning it bro, nothing wrong with constantly running negative stories about China bro, not manufacturing anything bro.

What a wonderful world

The assumption is that they’ll develop some kind of moat, but there are plenty of other AI models on offer or in development. It would also be useless capturing a market when the companies that would be their customers realize they’re not making money on the AI themselves.

There may be a dip in prices for a bit, but since covid, more companies have realized they can get away with manufacturing fewer units and selling them for a higher price.

It’s all in the eyebrows.

With OpenAI being at the center of the AI hype, I would’ve thought they’d be raking in the dough instead of losing $5 billion. So it’s really just Nvidia making money on this bullshit, huh? It’ll hurt when the hype dies down and Nvidia drops from the second top spot on the S&P 500. We’re all going to feel that one.

Oh boy, another post of .world furiously masturbating over the evils of .ml

Maybe it’s location based, but I had a mcflurry about a year ago and was given a pathetically small amount of the topping poorly mixed in a terrible filler ice cream. Perhaps the ice cream in the mcflurry was always terrible, but I hadn’t noticed it before when I would get a lot more of the topping. Also, their coffee was better for a time but it has reverted to burnt mud.

Apparently quite a few people have a high tolerance for what they value.

Prices have gone up while portions, service, and even quality (as low as it already was) have gone down. When does “the free market” start improving things for customers instead of just shareholders?

Life felt easier after high school for me because I had more control over my schedule and what I wanted to do.

If it works like subsidies over here, companies will just jack up prices to eat up the full subsidy.

This must be that innovation which is making the world a better place that these tech parasites keep gushing about.

What’s the benefit of making them fire you over simply quitting after you’ve lined something better up?

Didn’t facebook fake numbers before for video views which caused e.g. collegehumor to fold because they thought they could rely on facebook for views?

Yet a robot made specifically to cook burgers, a job disparaged as simply “burger flipping”, has yet to make any inroads even though it’s been talked about since at least as far back as 2012: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/burger-making-robot-could-revolutionize-202800987.html

The mirror serves up organic photons.
