So, like a movie theater? But with a restaurant? Yeah I'm totally ready for LLMs to take over a couple of C-suites. Can't be any worse than what we have here

Why not get ahead of the curve? Start a company and make all your decisions based on the outputs of your favorite LLM. Put your money on the line please

  Because I'm not a public company keeping my stock artificially high with buy backs or a VC-backed money pit pumping out bad idea after bad idea. But if I were, sure LLM all the way baby! Probably even get SoftBank to fund me

    So make a bad idea, start out as a private company, maybe even get seeded by YC for your bad idea. If they're a dime a dozen, then whats stopping you? I'm encouraging you to do it. You have my full support.

    > keeping my stock artificially high with buy backs How do buy backs artificially raise the price of a stock? A stock among ten is worth more than one among a million, ceteris paribus. > a VC-backed money pit Netflix went public in 2002 at $15 per share [1]. After adjusting for stock splits, it's now just shy of $5,000 on the back of billions of dollars of annual profits. Not VC backed. And not a money pit.

> like a movie theater? But with a restaurant? The article explicitly states "Netflix has not announced what it will be selling at the locations," and "it sounds like Netflix is trying to do what Disney does". Disney doesn't operate movie theaters. I could totally see a Stranger Things, Squid Game or Bridgerton theme park bringing in a billion a year. To the extent we have evidence vindicating the existence of a well-paid C suite, it's companies like Netflix and this comment.
