* The first generation were those silly AI pins last year.

* The second generation will be this opaqueAI ivePad.

* And when the third generation comes out, all phones will already have whatever makes this special.

I don't think Sama and Ive are smarter than everyone else, but even if they are, I don't see how this flies.

After reading all the posts, I feel this is far too strongly centered on Reddit. What about the other services? They seem to be mentioned in an aside, if at all.

> I feel like federated social media platforms are not going to be the answer in the end -- and although its adoption has grown in the coming years, I think it's always going to lag behind others.

Care to give an argument to substantiate that? These are pretty strong claims, "in the end" and "always" have a certain finality to them, which indicates you very strongly believe that. Why?

Cool idea. This seems US-only, unless I missed something.

Is this even possible in the EU with the GDPR and its stricter rules on medical data?

Worldcoin is and always will be opt-in.

Government solutions will be opt-out, and only in the most tedious way: Leaving the country, burning your passport and becoming a stateless person. Not recommended.

If there ever was a moat, government has it.

Thanks for the (possible) clarification.

But as long as Google isn't their _only_ customer, why would Nvidia care?

I am a serial account-hopper, so this couldn't happen to me, so perhaps I don't understand the point at all.

But what is keeping you from making a new account and rejoining the same subreddits, except perhaps losing a hundred million magic internet points?

Have my upvote for pedantic overkill.

> Ask a person on the street who their favorite painting movements are and likely every name will be more than 100 years old

I think you overestimate the publics art appreciation. The average answer will be a blank stare.

Your post strangely sounds like Nvidia primarily makes graphic cards for consumers.

Last time I checked, they couldn't produce enough H100s/GB100s to satisfy demand from everyone and their mother running a data center. And their most recent consumer hardware offerings have been repeatedly called a "paper launch" - probably because consumer hardware isn't a priority, given the price (and profit) delta.
