"AI vegans"
ffs, just publish an article with a single clownemoji for the same effect.
The big corporations desperately want AI to be popular because they've thrown literally insane amounts of money at it and still don't know how to monetize it.
There's going to be a huge push to make it seem like everyone loves it and it's weird not to use it constantly
It's going to go horribly and come off like that "fellow kids" meme, exactly like this headline
They do know how to monetize it. API access generated $1Billion in 2023. There's also huge R&D potential in fields like genetic research and medicine.
Profitability is another question though. Likely we're waiting for advances in cold fusion or late stage renewable development for energy costs to go down enough.
And all that $1B revenue cost them was a $5B loss! https://www.wheresyoured.at/howmuchmoney/
Yes my second paragraph alleged as much. Not that you read that far of course.
Ironically he could have asked AI to summarize it.
Thank you.
As much as I hate AI... I think I hate the people who hate AI more lol
