Forget the lottery. "ChatGPT, how do I create an AI Startup?"
-
I hope they lose all their investment
-
Sadly, they'll gain only the earliest start on NextGen Evil, waste many earth-boiling watt hours doing it and pass the losses on to everyone else via streaming, taxes, whatever.

Oh goody! More nameless knockoff garbage at the top of my searches but now less relevant. Can't wait.
Is there an eject button on this hell ride?
-
Amazon is not a startup.
-
Of course not. My point was that these wealthier-than-god goobers just throw money at anything with the term "AI" attached with abandon, and that seems like a better road to relative wealth than playing the lottery.

Is there an eject button on this hell ride?
Yep. Don't do it though. No way to make things better if you check out early.

There are some things to be said for non-existence

Maybe some do. Maybe some dont.

I love subsidizing these jackoffs energy bills in my own power bill /s. 17c/kwh for me, 3c/kwh for Bezos... From the same supplier.
-
Why in hell are all these people on a Technology community who clearly don't understand the reason why companies are all-in on the AI thing?
I don't want to pull a "no true scotsman" here, but holy christ.

Meanwhile, Amazon/AWS have reworked their corporate employees compensation so that employees get less in each annual review than previously. As well as making the top possible annual increment firmly out of reach.

If that’s the case there is likely a demand component to the bill. You don’t want to cheaper kWh and pay demand…
You “shouldn’t” be subsidizing the bill but who knows, it may be something but probably not as much as you would think.

What you're telling me getting TT 3 Years in a row is not feasible?
Also don't firget reducing the amount of promos handed out and trying to get people to leave so they can replace them with college kids.
But yeah let's throw 4 billion more at Anthropic

I think there's a healthy discussion about technology. The fact that people are open to discuss their concerns about AI and the ramifications of the technology is exactly what is needed in a discussion. Technology for the sake of technology is not needed, that's the play book these giants don't seem to realize. They are rewarded for technology and their ability to destroy and wreck the power grid without having to pay restitution or taxes. It's capitalism when in fact taxpayers are constantly the ones footing the bill with grants, tax levies, or holding the bag with bad contracts and needing to fix the problems these corporations leave in their wake.

Step 1. Be rich or know rich people
Step 2. Convince rich people to give you more money
Step 3. Repeat Step 2

Sure, that's what drugs are for. Why stop existing forever when you can stop existing for short periods of time from the comfort of your couch?
-
This is probably a long shot, but you wouldn’t happen to be the same FaceDeer who does the cool luanti mods?
-
Oh, neat. Yeah, that's me.
Been a couple of years since I've picked up the modding pen, but I still remember those days fondly. Just got really busy with life for a while and fell out of the habit.
