🇪🇺🇮🇪Oh well. How sad. Never mind.

DaveyYeah someone should have repeatedly mentioned that over the last few years 😭
lobingera@Natasha_Jay "Don't threaten me with good times."
__Miguel_@Natasha_Jay... And in related news, water is wet 😝
Seriously, though, I do wonder how long they think they can go on with just investor money...
Herman 🇪🇺🇺🇦🇾🇪🍋@nanianmichaels Long enough to cash and live in disgusting wealth happily ever after.
Ollie the Proud Queer One 🇪🇺🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇵🇸🇺🇦@Natasha_Jay Oh, capitalism might have an upside finally!

Market forces need to apply.
Market forces need to apply.
@Natasha_Jay They always should have but our politicians have been bought and sold: (non-capitalist) business as usual.
Disisdeguey🍉🔻PalestineAction🇵🇸@Natasha_Jay The only problem I'll see here is if the government decides to rescue these scammers? For a commission, of course.
@disisdeguey @Natasha_Jay yeah, they are trying to position themselves as too big to fail. Which will get them bailed out by taxpayers.
skaphle@ginoputrino @disisdeguey @Natasha_Jay I recently read about how SpaceX got into Nasdaq and how that meant all kinds of funds that replicate Nasdaq need to buy SpaceX shares. Be really careful if or when OpenAI, Anthropic etc get into top X lists and you have invested into a fund that tracks that top X list. I'm thinking about pension funds etc.
The last big crisis from 2008 hit all kinds of people specifically because everyone had some money in it. That's also a bailout.
So try to really really make sure you don't invest into AI unknowingly. It might even be impossible or some stuff you can't change anyway, and that's where this stops being a funny goof of out-of-touch billionaires and starts taking everyone with them.
@Natasha_Jay The horror …
Смерть Окупантам@Natasha_Jay I take all my money and buy a big heap of horseshit. Because I love horseshit, I even take loans from every bank willing to give me loans (and they all are) and buy more.
Then, I whine why no-one buys my horseshit for 100$ a pound...
(might be a bad comparison, horseshit is at least good for fertilizing)
TrickTim@Natasha_Jay
What does Kurt Vonnegut's asshole have to do with this??
😆
Helen@TrickTim @Natasha_Jay I wonder how many people will expect my arm to answer all of their questions.
On the flip side, people have asked to lick it.

Rob@Natasha_Jay There is not a violin small enough!
The Doctor@robchapman @Natasha_Jay Get me a scanning-tunneling microscope and I can fix that.
@drwho @Natasha_Jay lmao....that comment reminds.me.of this;
Loughborough University’s physicists have pulled off something wild: a violin so small it could sit on a human hair without breaking a sweat.

But, you know, that's probably still too big!
World's Smallest Violin Can Perch Comfortably on a Human Hair
Loughborough University’s physicists have pulled off something wild: a violin so small it could sit on a human hair without breaking a sweat. Clocking in at just 35 microns long and 13 microns wide, this platinum stunner isn’t headed for Carnegie Hall but a microscope slide, showcasing the mind-blowing precision of a new nanolithography system that’s got big ambitions. Building this miniature masterpiece was no joke. Professor Kelly Morrison’s team leaned on a high-tech tool called the NanoFrazor, tucked inside a sealed glovebox to keep dust and humidity at bay. They kicked things off with a small chip, slathered it
@robchapman @Natasha_Jay I think you're right, it is too big.

10 microns.

I'm made breathless by the depth of his analysis, unless large revenue then bamkruptcy. These people's genius is at Advanced God level, they should be ruling us all. </sarcasm>

That seems like a bold prospectus to lay out for potential investors before the IPO, but I don't know, I'm not an expert.

Stryder Notavi@petealexharris @Natasha_Jay The trouble with prospectuses (prospecti?) is that you have to disclose a lot of things and if you aren't honest enough then you tend to get sued / dragged before the regulators.
Turns out accountability is a somewhat effective antidote to bullshit.
DJGummikuh@Natasha_Jay AI-Tech-Bros discovering economics...
MrGrumpyMonkey@Natasha_Jay Just now realizing this?
PurpleYuriBeans 🟣
Bill Bennett@Natasha_Jay So... when it comes to business they aren't that intelligent.
Javensbukan@Natasha_Jay Oh thank God.
Mike Torr@Javensbukan @Natasha_Jay Nice! Anyone who knows the scene will realise that this is apt on more than one level.
billy joe bowers 🗽It’s especially weird how tech bros expect everyone to get upset at the possibility of AI companies going under when everyone hates AI companies and wants them to die.
joriki 
the noforn export ban is the prelude to the companies being strategic national security blah blah asset blah that require trillion dollar bailouts (aka looting of the treasury), because too important to fail yada yada
MarjorieR@joriki @Natasha_Jay National Security? The US government have already banned the release of the latest versions ( Anthropics's Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5) because they are allegedly too dangerous to be out there in the wild.
And more generally it's probably impossible to protect LLMs from malicious prompt injection. Prompt injection is how they work.
that was a HHOS joke about the general kind of bullshit rationale that might be used by our corrupt government to funnel a(nother) small ocean of public money to terrible rich people when the AI house of cards collapses, which is all quite independent of the veracity of capability claims
Chris 🦑@Natasha_Jay they just need to work harder
@sturmsucht @Natasha_Jay obviously overspent on avocado toast, going to need to cut that.
Wim Turnhout 🇺🇦 🍉 🇵🇸 🇦🇴 🇭🇺@Natasha_Jay That would be a terrible loss.......... for the CEO and the shareholders.

He finally understood capitalism.
You can only sell a product if this is something people want and you can find a buyer.

I thought we weren't going to get insight like that until at least GPT7.

aurorah@Natasha_Jay If only
Kieran Murphy@Natasha_Jay did they figure this out themselves or did the AI have to explain it to them?
aeternum@Natasha_Jay oh no. Anyway..
Freedom Isn't Free@Natasha_Jay what worries me more is how embedded AI has become. If these companies go bust, there'll be a lot of untangling to be done in people's workflows etc.
Makes me wonder if we need legislation around the aggressive and unprofitable pricing strategies these companies have employed.
Elias Probst@freedomisntfree that's what they're betting on…
Too many fell for the "AI will be the future…" scam, they're now heavily reliant on it - not only in a technical, but also in a mental sense…
So people and orgs will be willing to deal to a certain extent with price gouging, which will help those AI companies to reach their "billions in revenue" goals.
@eliasp @freedomisntfree @Natasha_Jay im worried about what they’ll do when they realize it isn’t paying out. The main asset I see is the information they gleaned from its use, that’s what they’ll sell to anyone willing to pay for it.
Else, Someone
