The ultimate purpose of AI was always to tell me what digit this is, anything else is just grift

VR is such an incredible thing for me because I somehow avoided any and all hype around it, then got to play around with some oculus thing at a conference and play Beat Saber and was like wow, this is really cool

And then you start reading people compare AI hype to VR hype and I'm just sitting there being like wait, was this ever supposed to be more than a Beat Saber platform? What did they claim it would do? Oh no.

as well as a iron-clad price floor for electricity

Lol isn't the main cool thing of having a nuclear plant low electricity costs, why the fuck would you agree to that

Let's increase the supply but also add a price floor to reap none of the benefits, genius economics

ye that's how most normal people use the internet? what's the alternative strategy, checking it out if it doesn't interest you?

Hopefully PG learned this skill in the last 20 or so years.

LOL.

LMAO.

I hope this was sarcastic.

And in either case, the aura of being a tech company instead of a company is lost

I don't understand this and am kinda afraid of what hides behind this

one might be tempted to assume it’s something that’s readily replicable by the competition (and they need to prevent that as long as they can) instead of any sort of notably important breakthrough.

ah yes, open AI
