Lolol. OpenAI lost just a lazy $20b in its reported 12-month financials 💩 . Losses growing year on year. Surely, they are running out of greater fools to buy this ludicrous hyperscale LLM story 🫧💥 Via @edzitron.com m.youtube.com/watch?v=UnLR... @alankohler.bsky.social

Any time anyone ever tells you that the biggest companies in the world wouldn’t waste hundreds of billions of dollars on AI, show them this. This is the core profit center of one of the largest tech companies in the world, and it’s run like a sloppy pre seed startup in the web3 era
Apparently a bunch of words trigger this kind of response, including redo, delete, help, and these others I've attached. For some reason it was really focused on where I live. Also RIP pulling up definitions from Google, it was a nice feature.

The Coalition’s plan to index income tax scales to inflation may work on paper, but critics argue it risks fuelling inflation, blowing out the budget and tying the RBA in knots. Indexing income tax scales — another bad idea from the Coalition ~ @thekouk.bsky.social

He's scared. Tesla sales are tanking, California is about to rule that "Full Self-Driving" is false advertising, Starship keeps blowing up, SpaceX loses too much money to IPO, and XAI is burning $10 billion/year for the 4th place chatbot. It's over, he knows it, and only corruption can save him.
SCOOP: Elon Musk — who threatened to launch a third party and support challengers to Republican incumbents during his dispute with Trump — is now firmly back in the GOP's camp having begun funding Republican midterms campaigns.

I can't get over this. In response to a kid committing suicide after talking to ChatGPT, OpenAI's response is literally "he prompted it wrong." There's something profoundly broken in these people's hearts.
Sure sure you might say that my client's knife "caused" the victim to stop being able to pump blood to their brain, but Hume's 𝘌𝘯𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘳𝘺 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘏𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘜𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 really makes it clear that we should all have some reasonable doubt about the concept of "causation" www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

A decade ago, Waymo travelled 423,000 miles and had 341 disengagements. That's 1,240 miles per disengagement. Now Waymo travels 17,060 miles between critical disengagements, conducts 250,000 paid rides a week and has served 10 million total rides - all without a single serious accident.

A post from Ashok Elluswamy, Tesla's VP of AI, showed that Tesla's Supervised Robotaxis had driven about 500 miles. In these 500 miles, the Supervised Robotaxis made two known safety critical errors. The Supervised Robotaxi only managed approximately 250 miles between safety critical errors.

Despite Tesla limiting the Supervised Robotaxis to a small geofence, they also require the constant attention of a Tesla employee in the front passenger seat. The Tesla supervisors had their thumbs hovering over the door release button throughout the rides, which we suspect is a kill-switch.

Tesla is now doing all of the things that Elon Musk and the Tesla Cult constantly criticized actual Robotaxi companies for. - being limited to daytime operations - being geofenced - mapping the area - avoiding difficult routes - requiring a supervisor in the car.
