The AI ads are already being thrown around.

I can't wait for this bubble to pop. Yeah, it'll be bad, and yeah, things will suck, but things will also be REAL. I know that's an oversimplification, but I'm just tired, boss. Tired of corporations trying to shove this down our throats, tired of having to question everything I see on the Internet, just plain tired.

Just to clarify, your big issue with AI is that you feel “they” are cramming it down your throat and you’ve taken exception to that. To me, who is just a nobody, this sounds a little like someone who is reluctant to change and longs for the nostalgic days of the internet when we had the dancing baby gif takeover the world.

I can't help but wonder if the government is going to end up directly propping up at least one AI company since it's so useful for propaganda even though it's not profitable

We said the same thing about the "cloud" and while it did retract a little, it's still painfully everywhere

Knowing what you know now, you still think we’d be better off without the cloud?
MothMonsterMan
I think so. Local hardware, fewer data centers, hardware cost would be lower.

That’s cool. I appreciate you sharing your feeling on this.
