I think threads still has a lot of time for it to grow, as meta with its deep pockets can afford to keep it running. Also there is some hate around Elon's acquisition of twitter, and whatever elon is doing (remaining to X). It makes a strong case that threads can at least keep growing, even after the hype drop after launch.

> Seems pretty straightforward, the dev day was a breaking point for the non-profit interests.

What was so bad about that day? Wasn't it just gpt4-turbo, gpt vision and gpt store and few small things?

So I'm in India, and pixel 6a seems to be of 30999 Rupees on Flipkart (amazon like online store)

The device I use regularly is moto g14 which is at about 8500 online, with discounts can go for 8000.

Honestly there is no work around as the moto g14 comes with a 4gb ram and 128 GB internal storage, 6.5 inch screen and 5k mah battery, it can do pretty much anything.

I've just started working full-time after college and now I earn more than enough to buy pixels or iphones but currently the money is going on other important things that were pending

They only seem to support pixel, although pixels can be bought for cheap when compared to iphones, they're still expensive for countries which are still developing.

For example Im using a device which is 1/4th the price of cheapest first hand pixel that I can get

:(

I dont think theyre saying Meta AI leaked it, but they anticipated someone else will and still went ahead with it as they wanted the consequences.

but at the same time, we can say the same about doctors (or even lawyers?) AI is just getting better at predicting things in general, be it an answer to technical question or predicting a disease, so which field is safe from AI? anything involving physical work can be optimized to outperform humans if economic incentives support it, and mentally we won't be able to combat AI say after 20 years, so what then?

Which field are safe from AI overtake? now obviously AI wont take all doctors' jobs, but it'll reduce the value that a singular doctor provides today and that's my concern, we humans are all are getting devalued, is AI field itself safe or will they replace themselves first?
