Honestly watching this video I went from "This damned weird ass alien dude" to still hating Meta and Facebook for Facebook but also feeling like he may actually be the more human of the billionaires. Surely beats out Musk... Meta has also been releasing somewhat open source models and new research... I'm hoping Zuck has realized his market is in open source and they continue to push their products in that direction.
Disclaimer: I am not saying that I'm a fanboy but at the very least videos like this take Zuck from "Alien Man who likes Sweet Baby Ray's" to "Well, he's not the _worst_ billionaire."
- fullshark 3y agoGlad people are starting to come around. Zuckerberg got a bad wrap for many years cause people HATE the facebook product, he's always been a good advocate for the underlying tech independent of product though imo. He's been probably the most important figure in increasing developer salaries (along with VCs looking to pump and dump software companies in a zero interest rate environment) the last 10 years as he bid aggressively for talent to build out FB, and showed it was worth it. Before he hit the scene the older big tech companies had an illegal no-poaching agreement to depress salaries. I do wonder if this newfound respect/admiration is because he's one of the last founder/CEOs of software big tech and FB stock has more than doubled in a year.
- IOT_Apprentice 3y agoA bad rap? Go back and look at his own words about those around him at the beginning. It was sociopathic. Facebook has been part of the problem of the decline of critical thinking and rational discourse, destroying families in the process.
