Do you suppose thats why they wrote "principally"?

Isn't that typically because they have lower labor costs? Not sure that applies as much to AI.

Well one way you can understand why the poster finds it controversial would be to read it before commenting.

It does exactly that.

This is a common coping mechanism, but the US is quite democratic and almost any objection you have about corporate control or whatnot can be easily overridden by getting like 100,000 more people to agree with you.

True sometimes, but not always. It's unlikely dumb people are equally split between political parties.

The US has below average middle class tax rates. But luckily we can just choose what our tax dollars are spent on through democracy! The main problem is nobody agrees about anything and lots of people are really dumb and can't handle t

We are not in a recession, and we (if you mean the US) recovered our economy from COVID (under Biden).

The "long tailpipe" concept is outdated and incorrect.

Technically I think it uses something called OpenAI OWL not Electron https://openai.com/index/building-chatgpt-atlas/ (which they extracted from Atlas, but the new app mentions it in the about window)

Presumably there are some features in the old app that will be migrated to the new app or dropped. Seems fine.

They briefly put the turn signals on the wheel which is not amazing but they’re back on the stalk now. AC is not an issue IMO. It’s always in the same place on the screen, on auto, and I never touch it really.

Maybe, but some political narratives are good and right and true, and others are bad and wrong and false. (I am not joking: objective reality exists and most of politics isn't subjective.)

I'm pretty sure that's a major part of this announcement? It delegates to GPT 5.5 which then uses tools.

Tesla arguably has better, more useful, and more obvious physical buttons than most cars. Most car manufacturers spray confusing physical buttons everywhere with esoteric icons and insane UX. Everything you'd want to do as a driver in

All of those things can be recycled and almost all of them can be replaced whether or not its end-user-servicable.

It's also possible its not a conspiracy and you and the other poster just have different opinions.

You don't get to choose how a particular movie was funded and who agreed to pay who in exchange for what.

That's false. You actually do pay the creators by buying their work like 99% of the time. Pretending you're fighting business structure around art financing is pure cope.

You do if you want to be seen as a good person. You can be a bad person if you want to be.

Doesn't change my point, you're generalizing from a tiny number of people to justify not paying everyone.

That's what I said, but $35 USD or $50 AUD is inexpensive for a game, especially a high quality one like this.

Is it true? I looked into your claim here and it doesn't seem substantiated at all.

Most copyright holders prefer you sending money for them in the way they ask you to, which is by purchasing it in the way they are offering it. And it's completely hilarious to suggest that most pirates are somehow Venmoing the artists
