I'm God's most powerful anti-AI hater and have the capacity for morality so this ain't it folks
If AI is so fucking transformative why do we need to be compelled to use it
Hey are we even breaking even? Like all the devs I talk to about it go "yeah it's ok but you spend about as much time fixing what it gives you as you would writing it yourself". Can you imagine the business acumen it takes to have your devs take as much time as usual but also pay OpenAI a royalty for use of their text extrusion machine? And having it assist the HR department? Legal? All it's good for is finding a polite way to tell someone they're fired or communicate absolutely nothing behind sixty layers of corporate executive jargon.
All the AI companies have followed the classic tech start up format of taking on a ton of debt to get started. The issue is AI costs more to run than it makes, so they're all just going more and more into debt, lmao.
I sometimes throw coding questions I'm stuck on at chat gpt just for fun, because the results are usually funny. Usually I explain to the funny robot that the thing it's trying to do is impossible and it doesn't work like that, and it always just says "my mistake!" and then doubles down on being more incorrect. Absolutely useless.
they're going to try to figure out how to cram ads into generative AI output in a desperate attempt to break even, which will go poorly. either that or alienate most of their users by removing the free tiers. it's not looking good Mr Altman!
How did I not think of the ad thing before? Of course that's what they'll do.
your post was so good i actively scrolled away to not get a random ad
It would be way pusher than that. Needs to have something like, "I noticed it's been some time since you've placed your last order so I've gone ahead an order per the terms of your free tier service. Let me know if you want to cancel it. You have 30 seconds. To increase cancellation time consider our basic package teir which doubles the cancellation time to 60 seconds. To disable auto ordering, you'll need to upgrade to the premium+ pro tier for only $99.99 per week."
