We need to envelope the planet in weed smoke and put shrooms into the water supply instead of whatever they’re putting in right now!!.!!!! Whose with me

You are all NPCs in my world.

Thanks for existing and keeping it interesting. If you’re AH *u tho fr lol

Maybe, maybe not. What is possible is investor returns lol

GPT 3.5 blew me away.

Unfortunately GPT-4 and even other coding co-pilots like Phind kinda suck at anything beyond "noob tier" / beginner level questions. In fact it has gotten so bad that I ended up Open AI subscription.

It falls apart at anything with complexity, and I feel that just taking out a sheet of printer paper or going to the whiteboard is always far more effective than trying to get GPT to come up with something that at the bare minimum has no errors.

Too busy with life to think about death.

Using not now they can continue annoying you endlessly until you say yes.

With no they can’t do that.

Why do we need anything? Ultimately we will find out in time if there is anything of actual value here. Right now we’re at the start of the roller coaster ride.

Obviously I hope to see some cool stuff. But I’m also realistic. We won’t know until we know. But we shouldn’t try to force anything imo. Unless you’re a VC who wants his returns.

Dang that just hit me. They were around for 1 THOUSAND years. I'm an Indian-American, and the country I was born in has only been around since 1947 and America since 1776.

In terms of "empires" that were founded, its crazy how young our modern societies are compared to Rome.

So where do we disagree? I said the lottery winners are the software companies mining using the shovels while wearing the Levi’s companies

Cringe.

Mass layoffs are part of the Faustian bargain you accept when you sign the offer letter to work at the behemoths of capitalism. These are the biggest like top 10 companies in the whole world.

It’s just business.

But then again even those making 400k plus TC make appeals to emotion instead of rational thinking.

There are plenty of jobs for these people where they can make 200k TC and not risk getting fired, which is still a good salary.

If you want more and more, you must play with the devil. It’s really not that complicated.

tbf maybe my analogy is wrong but I see there are various players like nvidia and open ai (shovels), vector db and other "infra" type startups (laundromats), and everyone else who is building apps in this ecosystem (miners).

The miners keep coming and going because most of their apps either fall way short of actual enterprise value/expectations, or can be easily incorporated into the big players.

Who exactly benefited during the gold rushes of the 1850s? I think it was everyone else but the miners. Did some miners make a fortune? Sure, but what remains of their legacy today is the foundations laid by the shovel makers and laundromats that allowed california to blossom.

For starters where else are you going to put money right now besides the stock market?

The current gold rush is AI. Who is selling the pick axes? Who is going to set up the laundromats and general stores?

Basically, don’t become the actual gold miner lol.
