Maybe that’s why nobody “heard” about it. It’s funny that we have companies bragging about not using stolen content to train their AI.

Google really had developed only 2 good products(not including acquisitions such as YouTube): search and gmail. Their primary cow to milk has been search. The rest (I.e cloud compute) is not really a moat. I think we are facing a revolution/rotation where the these companies may start to become just “old businesses”(I.e IBM, AOL).

Nobody can do that because they were all trained on stolen content

Go is awesome and has great ecosystem. I think if you want to just deliver Go is one of the best language out there. Of course as long as the project makes sense(I.e no client side/GUI stuff, there it gets messy)

it could be worse like …PHP

I think billions would be more accurate

I agree with you but by this time we know that this has become business as usual. I mean the U.S lead the way: Spy anyone including friends and allies. Find what they talk with their mother as well, maybe it would serve the orange pumpkin well in a negotiation.

The contracts are really worthless if for example Trump wants to share the transcripts with Putin. At this point I don’t understand why governments would outsource any of their data services to 3rd parties (I.e outside of the EU). EU should establish an EU gov cloud program and just run the models themselves for all the EU countries(under license of course). They would probably get better bargaining power as well.

A bit humiliating. It really seems that unless something magical or extreme happens this could be the end of U.S hegemony because this is different than Afghanistan. Here you have a state army that seems to be able to stand and inflict damage to the mighty U.S Army. This looks more or less like Russia being pushed out of Ukraine as Russian troops were not prepared for an actual invasion.

I am not sure if it can be marked just as a kind of “bad season”.

China makes great technology and the companies work as intended. One thing people don’t understand is that shareholders are not a priority. The companies are supposed to provide “social stability” not growth. If a company grows too much it must either share its profits with the society or just be brought down. As you can observe shareholders are nowhere in the picture. Check BABA as an example.

That’s why so many Chinese people invested in properties.

They are the future as long as someone is releasing them. From what I read lately it could be that OpenAI and Anthropic will get the regulation they caved for and unexpectedly China will stop releasing good open models.

So you are telling me that after eons, people will rise again as Lego figurines?

Let’s hope this is just the beginning of bringing the drama queens (Dario and Sam) closer to planet Earth.
