You say obviously but I don't see how tethering a loose object with 5000ft of live wire is "obviously" safe

Does it have batteries on board? How does it connect the power to the grid? O_o

Probably just lying to their boss. I have an AI obsessed boss and regularly lie about how much I use it because productivity is actually measured entirely by their perception of you and not by any real metric.

Sounds like AI is ready to replace CEOs

It's both. It's a bubble because of the amount of investment and lack of actual revenue, but it's also being used to replace humans. We will have to pick up the pieces when the bubble bursts, but in the mean time it's going to concentrate wealth and lower the standard of living.

They want to push all this shit in browsers so that they can start automatically buying shit once they're selling ads

I think it depends on how you engage with it. I work with some younger people who are active AI users, and they call chatgpt "he" or "she" and prompt it like a conversation with a person. Their responses are a lot more conversational vs mine which are more direct.

Yeah they eliminated poverty the same way they defeated COVID... By just saying they did and people like yourself slurp it up without a second of critical thought.

You're not wrong about Lemmy also being social media, but I view it as my methodone for Reddit. Long term I think I will get rid of Lemmy too.

The collapse of X should've been the movement to get rid of social media, not replace it with another identical platform
