  • Oh good. Let’s nationalize the chip manufacturing so the government can install hardware security back doors.

  • Agreed I don’t get why anyone would invest in them right now. Five years ago you were joining a hype train, but how does anyone think their value is going to increase from today forward?

    Their biggest appeal seems to be that their consumer product ChatGPT is a household name and has widespread consumer use. But consumer adoption of a phone app is a very fickle thing to stake a trillion dollars on.

  • Not only do you have to deploy them in a constellation, you have to deploy them in a descending constellation. They are constantly burning up all the time and you have to keep launching new ones forever just to maintain current capacity. It’s the perfect business plan to make SpaceX look better on paper.

  • The radioactivity is probably the healthiest ingredient in any “fresh” seafood you can buy at Walmart

  • That someone is so attached to this stochastic parrot is truly disturbing.

  • If it’s Internet connected and requires a cloud subscription service, you are just paying to be spied on and controlled. This is as true for dogs as it is for speakers and TVs.

  • DSL is distance-sensitive and only works within about 2-3 miles from a switch office. It also depends on line quality and the speeds degrade based on both factors. So old rural lines that haven’t been upgraded and are long hauls on single copper are basically doomed.

  • “OpenAI’s Sam Altman Expects To Spend ‘Trillions’ On Boiling All Our Oceans And Poisoning The Skies”

    FTFY

  • Sounds like an easy way to make their entire program irrelevant forever.

  • Agreed. I get that the mission of Wikipedia is to make information available to everyone and purposely cutting off a whole nation from their information goes against their mission. But sometimes Wikipedia should play hardball, and if the UK elected a government that wants to block Wikipedia then the people of the UK shouldn’t get Wikipedia. The people of the UK will need to elect a new government. Or get a VPN. Or both.

  • Wow yikes. I couldn’t even get through a few minutes of one of them. I assume the prompt was “generate the most annoying video possible using random clips of humanoid cats and a soundtrack that induces aneurysms”

  • This is actually a problem for people in rural areas where broadband has not reached (and won’t because it’s not profitable). Cellular will be the best option they have left.

  • As long as the previous collections of archives are still intact. We probably don’t need all of their new spam posts in the wayback machine anyway

  • The “outsourced labor” is the most concerning part here. People who won’t have a voice and can’t protest the poor conditions

  • If we can’t be racist against white people, who can we be racist against?

  • You know Wasp Man would be a total asshole.

  • Wasps with superpowers? This is truly the worst timeline.

  • And that was only after they ran out of pirated ebooks.

  • Lack of a cute animal mascot and catchy name
