Let's say you go to a concert or similar event where there's potentially thousands of people leaving at the same time. How many robotaxis do you need to carry the same amount of people as a …

I guess you've never ridden on the Shinkansen or anywhere in Switzerland. I'd much rather take those trains than do the equivalent drives, especially if I'm the one behind the wheel.…

If I still have to do a ton of work to clean up whatever the AI shits out then it might as well have done nothing. The promise of these systems from the hypesters is that it can do everything, so don&…

If they're spending 60B anually then that is bad. Obviously none of us know what their real burn rate is, but revenue is an irrelevant number if you don't have the full picture.

I'm no economist, but how exactly does this make sense? Amazon is basically just giving them 5B which will then be used to repay them back 20x that amount??

But I thought coding was solved? I guess having a single 9 of availability is something we need true AGI for, we should probably give OpenAI and Anthropic another gazillion dollars to burn through to …

Definitely isn't for non-technical users. I guarantee you if you asked basically any random Joe on the street what ASCII means they'd have no clue. https://xkcd.com/2501/…

Whether you or I or any other normie thinks the tech won't leave people jobless is irrelevant. The C-suite in every company is foaming at the mouth to replace their most expensive asset, people, …

Lmao even in a post about his house getting torched the ghoul can't help but trump up some more hype around "AGI".

I've encountered a surprising number of forms where "Serbia" isn't an option, but Yugoslavia is, even in 2026. There's been a number of times here in the Netherlands where I h…
