Ah yes the personal anecdotes and edge cases. Eh, I saw this coming.

The reality is that this is not an appropriate job for people with severe visual impairment that doesn't allow them to look at a screen, in very few exceptions is it the later, companies are not designed to handle this and realistically cannot.

Elon posted that this wasn't possible, and it clearly is.

As with any lithium based battery.

The same thing happens in writing.

Hundreds of creators creating content for these platforms, want to know the average rating is Five Stars. Want to know the average viewership? ~100, to even get to the stage of generating money you need to create several hundred chapters, and essentially beat the system to even make a hundred dollars.

For most of them, they will quit writing after their first series doesn't pick up traction, most don't understand the formula and strategy, most dont have the time or money to try.

Average viewership for light novels reaching 30~ chapters is less than a few thousand meaning which might seem like a lot, but it's not. From there viewership gets lower and lower. It's all based on demand and the only thing people want to read is porn.

Ah this reeks of bs but welcome to hacker news where everyone gets the 350k+ offers. Lol posting the #2 for Epic Games, this totally is very real and very possible for a 10 year old to even do.

It's a neurological disorder and is more complicated than a one off bit, especially when it involved the entire CNS because it's associated with the brain. Many of these issues can't be cured as easy as flipping a bit.

Its not that terrifying the way the these models work they aren't really creating new works, just taking other ones and basically copying them. Honestly, new laws for copyright have to be made I wonder when it will happen. And how the judical systems in the world will deal with it. Or if big tech has enough in the pockets to pretend it isn't an issue.
