plagiarism machine (Sora app) that created videos of ignoring all copyrights including deepfakes of people is dead. It look like OpenAI is running out of money as banks don't want to fund their plagiarism machine and existing investors demanding ROI. this is so good. i hope the rest of the AI industry dies down too

We’re saying goodbye to Sora. To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you. What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing. We’ll share more soon, including timelines for the app and API and details on preserving your work. – The Sora Team

oh look, the AI batshit crazy Microslop is down the most out of the MAG 7. OpenAI's big investor, Microsof has lost 31% of its market cap in just a few weeks, and it’s gonna sink even deeper when the market opens in a few hours.

OpenAI is running out of cash & can't find new investors. Even the banks refused to sanction loans for Oracle to build an IDC for them. Now Microslop says they tone down the AI & Ads in Win11 just to win back users. their slop machines aren't generating enough profits

yeah, right these AI companies and tech bros gonna replace 80% of all jobs and their COBOL plugin gonna write banking & enterprise software. they can't even keep a single video app running for more than 6 months. Lamo.

the whole AI industry is one giant big scam. you know old good pump and dump kind of scam and in that process they have destroyed many real jobs, environments and they will not stop until the full blown recession is here.

@nixCraft - how true. I hope we are not headed into a stagnation economy from Crap AI.

@nixCraft These guys always had that energy of someone at an art show looking at a piece of art that appears simple and saying, "pssh, I could make better art than that" and then giving up when their first attempt is exactly as good as every creative person's first attempt.

The harm they've been enabled to do is so enormous and eggregious that the enablers should be red flagged forever.

I am happy to contribute to the amazon falldown. I am actively boycotting as long as Bezos is around doing his fascist things.
In the process I discover so many other inline stores. So I may never go back...

@nixCraft Good to see Tesla and Meta not far behind.

@soviut @nixCraft - Absolutely; the latest news from NPR was Tesla is creating a POS with out a steering wheel - OMG.

@nixCraft Wait. They should be insanely efficient says LinkedIn.

@nixCraft Who could have thought? Wish there was someone who had warned us that this could happen! Now what are we going to do?!
How are we getting the people into liking our slop we forced on them so that they will pay back our investments (with interest)?
Halp!

Poor companies, only had our best interest in mind and now noone will give them more money for this.

Oh, i could go on for hours...

@nixCraft "What you made with Sora mattered," yet to see a shining example of that - but yay to fewer AI slop videos!

@nixCraft
I did not empty my brain of all the coding skills and only make AI slop. So when AI is gone, I am still going to be able to continue working.

@nixCraft oh wow!! is this the AI bubble finally popping?

@bazkie @nixCraft
I wish. They are probably reallocating resources where the money is. Corporate and government.
That said, now that Sora is gone I can start watching YouTube again!

Here's hoping someone wants to make their rubble bounce by suing for the copyright infringement they've already committed.

@nixCraft but Bytedance's Seedance is presumably still being developed? In other words, America may have shut down one disinformation machine, but China still has theirs?
