The billions of Dollars taken by people not understanding it from the cryptobros.

Lots and lots of people didn't just lose 'play money'

Why not?

Its called Schadenfreude and tbh the amount of NFT or Crypto scams, garbage and co people had to endure the last years is horrendes.

Its one thing to state in a comment that you shouldn't use NFT or crypto, but unfortunate we are not discussing banning them activly.

"We - humans" had already a perfect PoS system called "existing fiat system" and noone should have allowed the virus 'crypto/PoW' making so much co2

Just because something is great doesn't mean that others can't compete. Even a secondary good product can easily be successful due to a company having invested too much, not being aware of openai (ai progress in general), due to some magic integration, etc.

If it would be only me, no one would buy azure or aws but just gcp.

The IT worlds is basically integration and / or very niche custom software development.

There are plenty of countries around the world, special use cases, etc. and enough work for the normal it world to go around.

For my startup, im pretty sure the finetuning is a huge win even if we 'just use' openai because openai doesn't have the information we have and i'm pretty sure they also don't care for our niche (right now, and AGI in 20 years, i will probably no longer be needed one way or the other ;P)

Absolutly. Was already thinking about trying to get closer to the action but i'm only doing platform engineering based on k8s and live in germany.

there are plenty of people able to do what im able to do. They will not just move me over to SF just to have some MLOps/Platform expert.

The crypto stuff Sam A. is doing is garbage but he is rich enough, it has less of a 'get rich scheme' i believe. That would be otherwise a no go

You will wait long for this. MS didn't pay a billion for having others selling it too.

But click yourself an azure account, build an API and just use it.
