    Well I dunno, I just watched their demo video and otherwise know nothing about it, but it looks like an interesting experiment. Maybe some day — if they keep throwing hundreds of billions of dollars at it for another decade or two — it’ll get good enough to justify however much it costs to run.

    I really can’t wait for the financial house of cards to come crashing down from all the freebies handed out by the billion and for shit like this to finally have its actual price tag attached to it.

    Ragebait misinformation video.

    Funny that it’s criticizing misinformation, while doing it himself 😒

        I downloaded Sora.

        Not Sora, Sora’s app. Sora is a cloud service.

        And if the business model of open AI is advertising

        It’s not, it’s to sell AI services to other businesses.

        Cuz the business model was supposed to be 40% of people lose their jobs

        Was not, it was always to sell AI services to other businesses. Marketing hyperbole… that’s marketing for you.

        in that world, maybe maybe it’s worth half a trillion dollars. In that world, maybe Nvidia is worth the entire pharmaceutical industry combined.

        The largest breakthrough in AI so far, is precisely its use in the pharmaceutical industry.

        But Nvidia is definitely not worth the entire pharmaceutical industry combined

        No, it’s worth more.

        if the business model is making slop talk worse by putting slop advertisements into it.

        It’s not. Not to say there won’t be advertisements, and propaganda, and manipulation… that’s just an extra, not the business model.

        I’m scrolling Martin Luther King Jr. going 67. Like, that’s got to be illegal somehow. Like, I’m pretty sure that you can’t just do that.

        It was not, is not, and public domain is public domain for a reason.
        Asking for something else, is censorship, like what Trump is asking for right now.

        The friction matters. How easy it is to do this stuff matters.

        Censorship talk again.

        And then they put like a little watermark here that’s like extraordinarily easy to crop out. It’s never in the middle. It’s always at the top or the bottom.

        Plenty of videos out there with the watermark right in the middle.

        They shouldn’t be in charge of the kind of thing that could literally by their own admission destroy humanity.

        Hook, line, and sinker. More marketing hype.

    Why should anything, really¿ All depends on what you assume something’s purpose that justifies its existence should be.

    If you don’t believe in purposes, then nothing requires reasons to exist because they don’t need justification. Things just are and you either like them or don’t like them.

    If you do believe in purposes, then understanding its’ sole purpose is the accumulation of wealth and power towards OpenAI as a collective organism should suffice.

    Why should crocodiles exist? Why should mosquitoes? Why should viruses and other sources of disease? They don’t need a reason. They’re just doing what they do to survive, grow and reproduce. You know, just like ideologies. We’re just what they feed off and their means of materialization (through our actions).
