Two years ago I went on TV and said exactly this: The AI panic cycle was a marketing campaign by known billionaire failures, ultimately an excuse to revenge-fire workers with no immediate replacement.
I literally said "The agita around AI is deeply cultural." Me no have TV job shortly thereafter.

in short: ChatGPT makes cases up and gets lawyers disbarred. but a decent enterprise llm for westlaw/lexis? not that far off
Unions, wobble.
Take a staycation.
Share the strike with your local news & national social media platforms, companies and family members.
Support the strikers by working together, introduce a barter system, provide bail, food, sanitation, etc.
I thought it was a compound word- I wouldn't have mentioned it, except for: "proof reading my ex husband's next book".
Also, isn't "ex husband" hyphenated? The "ex" is the "former", and combined with a noun, it would be "ex-husband" (in standard use).
Yes, I'm bored.
😂
But not actual production crews as has been propagandized.
Background extras in large crowd scenes? They were already getting replaced by existing VFX effects
I’m a programmer, watching the whole AI circus with disbelief. There ARE limited use cases for it, but none so far that justify the hype and investment. 🤷♂️

Going back 40 or 50 years (I’ve been programming for 44 years) the goal of AI was truly a human-like ability to think and reason, not just merely to pass a Turing test.
But hey, a bullet worth taking
And even wonderful management, good management gets things wrong. They still need to be called out. Being wrong doesn't make them bad, it makes them wrong.
But the brain drain that’s happening to Web3 in favor AI is a damn shame that’s slowing things down. Still not gonna stop the all-but-inevitable.
2nd, some nonfungible things: house deeds, medical records, patents, political votes, contracts of ANY KIND, ALL IP…
That democratizes investing into something INFINITELY more accessible to the general public. NFTs are a MAJOR engine for wealth creation.
I work for a content distribution protocol-platform based on NFT tech and first built for musicians. It lets creators set content stream prices and keep all revenue, or split it. No big box labels, no middlemen, no rent-seeking platforms, no starving artists.
I salute you.
I know AI is a bad idea. Disregarding all other arguments, I don't need to look any further than The Matrix or Terminator. That's enough for me.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It has no agency it can only reply to things.
The fact that we haven't had a killer Ai app by now shows how much of this "boom" is hype. By the time people figure it out, these guys will have already moved to the next grift.
Directors screaming @ me instead of us.
It was funny when the robots got lost & ran into the news set.
Now I think the robots run fr cues in the script, what could possibly go wrong?
So it continues to by hyped as it infiltrates itself into education despite short term slop and long term degradation.
Why pay a CEO millions of dollars a year, not counting bonuses, when AI can do their job more efficiently?
Seriously. Do not underestimate the idiots. Look where we are: Trump, Musk/DOGE and one of the most unserious people on the planet, Zuckerberg, is important.
Scary future tactics to pick the pockets of now.
The consulting class is conning businesses and to be frank the businesses deserve it

ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape
so if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes
Tonight's slurp juice mint event is essentially a minting event for both Lab Monkes and Special Forces
The same masters with their "Profiteering over the Humanity" creed remain, and only their names have changed.

". Is that a good or a bed thing?
It’s the professor here who didn’t do his work but the students their hard-working and they did their work…
Fire the professor…
AI is just a fancy tool used by fancy tools.
But I also guess I'm that many days old now.
This is now a dangerous industry with unconstrained reach to anyone with mobile
👏
Plenty of scammers are around to tap into their delusions at all times.
I need my chores done, to give me creation time.
