That's just two different scales. Weapons are a great product for weapon dealers and manufacturers as well, just not so much for the people killed by them (or their families, or survivors) So sure, if making a shitload of money is the

Good != Successful. I assume that's why they wrote good and not successful. It's an average software product with incredible scaling behind it and a lot of elbow grease to keep it chumming along, but it's not great software b

People will not just lay down and wait for death's sweet embrace though. There is a whole lot of people involved in food production and the owners can't own it without people willing to let them own it. As soon as money is out of

Capital loses all it's value the moment it's all in the hands of a few. If people cannot even get a piece of the cake anymore, the cake doesn't hold any power over them. So if the rich and powerful just hoard the money, they

Totally fine. Then let's just not pretend these "AI"s are somehow better at it. That's the whole problem with all of these discussions. It's whataboutism and "You're holding it wrong" allegations.

Yes, 2 years. How long does building a factory take? If the demand grows with their production they can sell more units at the same price. If demand goes down by a certain percentage, they sell more for less + they lost the investment into

But why would they invest in more factories if they also think it's a temporary hickup? Then it's just the same capacity, but without huge buyers. Still the prices won't come down... If they built new factories now, they woul

Sadly not a good fit for my needs. My 2021 machine is still more powerful (apart from the GPU maybe, but that one is from 2022 and has 12GB memory) and I can't justify buying this for that amount. Would've loved to have a dedicate

I think that LLMs will stay, but I also think we've plateaued and that big companies will fail and fall and we will have another years long "halt" of any real advancements coming to the public. Similar to how ML was all the h
