If something like this ever did happen IRL, the vast majority of the world would cheer.

Oh, man.

I’d be mortified.

The worst I ever did was handing in a paper with a soda stain on it because I had a bottle crack in my bag and didn’t have time to reprint it before class.

These fuckers need to stop using LLMs to generate code when they need things to function with precision.

The very notion that someone would take some kind of credit for technological advancement because they share a similar skin color with a random visionary makes me want to communicate non-verbally with these douche bags in a very forceful way.

If you catch my drift.

It says so much about the Republican Party that they’re defending these limpdick fifth-graders instead of saying: “You know what? We don’t like these pathetic little shit-stains either.”

Yes, as always, the master race: fat, balding, and utterly insignificant without the inbred assurance that their skin color is some kind of achievement.

Oh yeah.

Knowing that it’s just seven companies propping up the US economy, and the private ones don’t have to publicly report if they just lost half a trillion dollars, it gives one pause. I’m definitely reevaluating if and when I want to move my investments to cash.

Good to see you get some good utility from it. 💪😎

It’s objectively a bad thing when a country’s entire economy is being propped up by seven companies and the vast majority of consumer spending is concentrated in the top 1%.

That’s awesome, but I don’t need it. :)

I’m kind of glad that I don’t mind flipping switches and pressing buttons. I’ve never felt the need for a smart home, so this stuff hasn’t affected me much personally.

the only way to change our course is violence at this point.

Sadly, yes.

And the environmental cost is still lower than meat.

It’s not meat.

It’s cars and planes. We know this because we observed a drastic drop in air pollution in both 2008 (following the financial crash) and March 2020 that can be attributed to basically the entire planet no longer commuting and traveling.

That said, LLM’s water and carbon footprints are likely going to be far more devastating than meat consumption, not that it’ll matter. Everyone is still going to vote Democrat and Republican and things will steadily continue to get worse.

The key with a VPN is to buy long term. I got a black friday deal for Proton last year that comes out to two dollars and pennies a month.

These are not the people who raised me or the values they raised me with.

Agreed. The version of my parents that I loved is already dead and gone.

Anytime they bring up politics, I just tell them we can’t discuss it.

If they press the matter, I say the same thing, except the second time I add: “…because it’s going to make me hate you.”

They’ve been borrowing my car to drive for DoorDash since April 2024 and still haven’t figured out that this government they voted for is really fucking shitty.

100%, especially diversifying beyond the US

Agreed. Dude is just an entertainer.

Right you are.

My mistake. Added the link.

Jim Cramer, who famously told people to hold Bear Stearns as the 2008 crash was unfolding, is making another bold prediction on LLM’s and GenAI. If you’re heavily invested in LLM’s and GenAI, this is just another thing to think about as financial shenanigans continue to unfold.
