I don’t think ai as technology needs saving, but the companies of the bursting bubble do. I love to see Altman struggle

It’s hard to tell when he’s genuinely miserable because his face always looks like that.

For the simple reason that is is REALLY cheap to make and monetize real porn.

It’s really cheap to use a WAN model (or whatever the latest thing is) on my laptop to make porn without needing to find and hire a model, or even subscribe to an onlyfans. Also not paying OpenAI or anyone else besides the electric bill.

I don’t think that’s going away, and I would be a bit surprised if it’s not already cutting into demand for the real thing (which I also think isn’t going away)

Right, you can afford to do that because the company you are using is taking a loss on the product.

What company? I mean local models.
