This is the dotcom bubble on steroids. These chat bots have a low barrier of entry. The hardware shortage is the only reason they can charge charge excessive amount for access.
In 10 years your phone will be able to run ChatGPT locally. They know this and it’s why they need to sell everyone on these models constantly improving but cannot provide metrics that satisfy anyone who isn’t all-in.
Heads up, AI related bonds are imploding. Taking the entire bond market with it perhaps. There is a very real chance of a recession very soon.
If you’re working class the recession is already here
Ya ordinary people have been broke since before covid, but that’s their problem. But when the stock market tanks, it’s everyone’s problem and we are all in this together.
People really feel some type of way if you’re not impressed with AI. But it just isn’t useful enough for day to day and makes up stuff along with being destructive to the planet.
So what is up with the duck?
Not sure with the ball either but seems to me it is a bit folk loreish in the US for some reason.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_duck_debugging
The ball is called a magic 8 ball and it’s a toy popular in the US, you ask it a question and it gives you a random answer
Ah, you beat me to the reply. But yes, the implication is that a random answer is a good as AI, and if you explain your problem to a rubber duck you often find the solution by forcing yourself to think about it step by step.
Why would anyone wanna archive what an AI does?
Also almost any package manager.
Just use dependencies if you don’t want to bother with writing a parser library! You don’t need to ask AI every time for an XML parser every time you need to touch XML! (Personally I try my best to not touch it outside of text formatting needs, where XML actually excels at, it’s poopy at data storage you otherwise could use INI, TOML, JSON, or whatever other languages.)

And at least 60% of AI could be done in a lounge on a cocktail napkin, without a subscription.

Edit: magic 8-ball, who downvoted this?
Why is the character holding a bowling ball instead of, ya know, a billiard 8-ball?
I think he’s stupid.
Source: magic 8-ball
Why is he holding a single ball instead of 8?
- He’s just that stupid
B) 8 balls are significantly smaller than magic 8 balls so it would ruin the joke in the first panel
archived? i assume you mean achieved
Haven’t you heard of the archival formats .8bal .duk and .zim?

yeah, but the problem is that the world isn’t made for people who can use rubber ducks, magic 8 balls, wikipedia and good notes apps.
the world is made for the people that need the obnoxious laugh track and a person reacting to an Instagram reel, otherwise they don’t know how to feel.
That’s why before any job interview I put a bluetooth speaker in my pocket. Then when I’m about to walk into the room where I’m being interviewed I play a sound file. 5 seconds of silence, followed by a studio audience reaction of when the hot person enters the room.
You know the one.
Hot person enters through the doorway, says 1 sentence, and pauses because the audience is about to lose their shit going WOOOOOOOOOOO!!! for 3 seconds. Then the actor says the line again, and continues with more that the one sentence.
So as I’m opening the door, I hit play, walk through the door.
“Hi, I’m here for the interview…WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Hi, I’m here for the interview. Here’s my resume.”
“What was that?”
“Oh, that was just the studio audience reacting to the arrival of the main character in your story.”
So far it hasn’t worked. But I still get the ego boost!
I wonder if Darth Vader had his theme music playing under his cloak as he walked around the death star.
If he doesn’t, he could always start. He has changed the deal. Pray that he doesn’t change it further.
Because when darth vader brings princess leia on the deathstar, she looks around. What does she see? Nothing but open space. There’s nowhere for her to run. What’s she gonna do? Say no?
I’m gonna have to try that
I was interested in this really hot chick, but what ground me down and made me lose interest was that she would not stop sending me these videos… Top 50% of the video somebody would be telling a conspicuously fake “funny” story, on the bottom half of the video was the SAME person but pretending to gut-laugh on a 3 second loop. Omfg… She was an 11 out of 10 but I just couldn’t take it. I cannot pretend I find these things funny.
I believe this is why they invented pump and dump schemes
I was okay with ignoring and replying LOL to them all
But what I was not okay with was the alleged humor content repeatedly later coming up in personal conversation
She would reference something from some reel that had critical impact on her, and it would go over my head because of course I had not watched it. “But you replied LOL” 😮💨
Someone tell Arthur Weasly the rubber duck actually has a function!
industry spend
Remember, when you’re off the car lot, you have to drop the salesbrochad jargon. It’s ‘spending’ .
I approve of this new use of archive in relation to AI.
Someone described politics today as a viscous cycle. Took me waaaay to long to realize what they were saying.

LMAO Thank you!
How’s that working out for you?
ikr? I kind of definitely want one.
