When GenAI start coming through with chatgpt, I was hoping it would take away the every day menial tasks.

I now see that is mainly targeting Creative Work, and it's really really sad.

I think we as humans find joy in creative work and it is frustrating that we as a collective decided that is the thing we will take away from humans.

I find joy in creative work. I don't see this as a valid excuse to spew hatred against how others choose to engage in creative work.

What would be a moderate way to interpret this?

Is it the vector space of two words being approximate to one another?


while you imagine this, let's waste order of magnitudes more in red tape, that is if your imagination and DOGE's imagination are in the same place.


Yeah they have literature about this, they do as much as they can on device


100%, if it run macos it would've been a no brainer.

I believe I am decent earner, but 3500$ is not justifiable from the benefit I get from it. _and I wanted to buy it really bad_


Because they shouldnt cash out for the work they've put in?

I do dislike that big tech gobbles all small companies, but I dont think people should stop to sell their companies.

It makes sense to cash out and be set for life if that's what you want.


> Analysts have also said that the rise of artificial intelligence may have delayed purchases as some higher-income shoppers await upgraded laptops with AI features, such as Microsoft's co-pilot button, and televisions to hit the shelves.

Wait what?, does anyone here know someone who's truly waiting out for any of these features?


One of the problems with electronics has been that there has not been a lot of value add in a lot of categories for a while, and in some cases, there has been value erosion. I bought an LG OLED TV in 2017. Since then, a similarly sized TV costs 50% more and is still more expensive to buy in a sale. (I bought mine in a sale) Meanwhile, there has been not a lot of value add to the TVs in terms of hardware. And whatever software features are being advertised, are in fact the reason why I refuse to replace mine. Mostly because the more poorly written software they add to the TV, the more enshittification of the viewer experience happens.


Just like everyone was waiting for TVs to get 3D compatibility and their phones to get 5G — or so we were told.

> Why do the media keep running stories saying [bullshit about consumers]? Because PR firms tell them to.


you deserve a 1000 upvotes :)


Wait but when did he say that?


do you have an exit strategy?


I started selling at the one year mark since capital gains is lower for stocks held longer than one year in the USA.

For a complete exit I would need to see a genuine competitor emerge. I have not seen that yet.


then all of this kinda makes no sense, wasnt Elon doing this RIF because he wanted to inflate numbers to pull his cut?

Wouldnt removing all the job ads for tesla achieve the opposite effect?
