Billionaires are a ~~systematic~~ risk*.
God I hate this website’s image.
I just want to see the tech industry implode.
Implying that rich motherfuckers aren't the actual problem, and were before AI was even a thing
The word predicting chat bot produces nothing of value. That sweaty VC porn is burning money it cant repay. Its coming to an end. Just hope the grifter doesnt get a golden parachute. Frankly should be made to repay his pay
Me: Checks RSS feed
RSS feed: nothing new
Me: Checks RSS feed again, later in the day
RSS feed: nothing new
Me: Opens Lemmy
Lemmy: Here's that new article!
Why do I even bother using RSS, if the Lemmings post it just as quickly?
RSS-feed of the Lemmy community then?

So you can race to be the first person to make the Lemmy post and rake in those sweet upvotes
OpenAI has become a load-bearing company for the tech industry, both as a narrative — as previously discussed, ChatGPT is the only Large Language Model company with any meaningful userbase
I guess this is true if we ignore Google which is more than a LLM company since that can pre-install gemini on half of people's devices and everyone interacts with using gsuite.
all your favourite boutique ocean-boiling nonsense generators combined, compared to openai products, have something like fifth of their userbase on mobile app and something like 2/3 on website. without counting deepseek (data from february - it was very fresh back then), it's closer to eigth on app and third on website
Where can i find said data? I would think it was i secret.
it's not if you pay up https://www.wheresyoured.at/wheres-the-money/
ed paid, and that's what he got. this all comes with caveat that this count doesn't include deepseek chinese customers, but that's barely relevant to sv bubble
And have no concept of Claude or any other model
claude has something like 1/30 of chatgpt userbase, it's not relevant and anthropic can't pick up opeai users when (not if) it collapses. also somehow they are even faster at burning their money
