8min video and I gave up after 2:30 of rambling. Anybody have a tl;dw?
Motherfucker, you can buy me a new PC if you want me to have one so bad. Shit’s expensive and nobody has the money to replace something that still works.
This but with Shorts, too.
Isn’t this true of like everything AI right now?
We’re in the “grow a locked-in user base” part of their rollout. We’ll hit the “make money” part in a year or two, and then the enshittification machine will kick into high gear.
Joke’s on them… I put normal porn on my work laptop so they think I’m into normal shit, then I watch the REA, fucked up porn on my personal PC.
but my growth potential!

LOL there goes any hope of an Azure government cloud getting any traction.
No, the offensive c-word.
Lots of fluff in this article and the site itself sucks. Here’s the key paragraph:
One way to achieve this would be to impose a levy on the gross revenues of the largest AI providers, collected by a national or multilateral agency. As the technology becomes increasingly embedded in daily life and production processes, the revenue flowing to AI firms is bound to grow – and so, too, will contributions to the fund. These resources could then be distributed by independent grant councils on multiyear cycles, ensuring that support reaches a wide range of disciplines and regions.
My biggest issue with this approach is that it fails to acknowledge that AI is a bubble currently propped up by venture capital. In 1-4 years all those investors are going to want their ROI, and AI companies are going to start turning the money crank hard.

“Locker room behavior”
What a bunch of fucking idiots. They could be increasing grants for AI research, offering fast-pass visas & citizenship paths to AI experts/PhDs from other countries, and working to increase the availability of necessary resources such as data centers and power. But nope! We’re just letting the commercial businesses cut corners so they can profit off of it faster.
Pretty much sums up this administration in a nutshell.
In no way is Peacock worth $17/month.
Yeah, this is literally discrimination based inherently on race, gender, etc., but it’s going to be considered totally fine because the mystical AI is doing it.
Would Moto count? I’ve been rocking their basic-ass phones for years now. Way, way less bloatware than Samsung, etc. and only like $200 unlocked.
So we just need something to 86 the worst of us?
No. There’s no “hopefully” anything when it comes to this bullshit. It’s bad for the individual, full stop. This is not a thing to compromise on, because any compromise at all will eventually harm the users (though leaks/hacks, or government overreach, etc.) without any actual benefit or offset to them.
