"I even hate when you say the word 'nigga', but that's just me I guess. Some things just cringeworthy, it ain't got to be deep I guess."

It's really funny that this was probably the closest thing to a killer app powered by genAI to exist.
Wonder if they're getting rid of this stuff because they realized it's actually a liability to mine these ERP convos for data and they're burning money on every conversation as it is.
The bit about how the Bitcoiners won because the number went up is beyond parody.
I skimmed most of it once I had an idea of where this was going, and 13000 words of tone policing is just insanity. "The EA guys are great because they use moderate language and Gerald cackled at how Scott Star Alex had his life ruined by the extremist non-moderates at the NYT."
You know that Factorio is a fictional video game, right?
Ah shit, ML spelled backwards and wrong is LLM, they got me good.
I am going to forcefeed you the Mona Lisa. The chances of me being able to do so may be extremely slim, but do you really want to take that chance?
Very based:
With all the damning evidence, the story was ready. Most reporters would now email their subjects for comment, but Woo elevated the story to performance art. He asked Austen for a recorded interview, without revealing its nature. Austen, lulled into a false sense of security by tech press puff pieces, agreed. What followed was the most riveting hour of tech journalism I've ever heard.
The premiere venture capitalists of our time, drawing from near infinity riches during ZIRP, and the most innovative thing they have is student loan debt racket but faster.
Did YC seriously think because a growth hacker was in charge, you could value a private school like its an overinflated tech company? PG going mask off to endorse slavery (sorry, "trying out a worker") for a hack like Austen is so many levels of brainworm capitalism, how has Silicon Valley not sunk into the ocean.
It's "reasonable" in context, I just thought it's funny that rbuttcoin would be headpatting AI at all, since its basically the exact same people pushing AI as the people pushing crypto with the exact same motives.
This is quite minor, but it's very funny seeing the intern would-be sneerers still on rbuttcoin fall for the AI grift, to the point that its part of their modscript copypasta
Or in the pinned mod comment:
AI does have some utility and does certain things better than any other technology, such as:
- The ability to summarize in human readable form, large amounts of information.
- The ability to generate unique images in a very short period of time, given a verbose description
tfw you're anti-crypto, but only because its a bad investing opportunity.
Imagine being such losers that you get owned by the fucking Guardian, and as your brilliant followup, you start screaming "I'M NOT OWNED"
Is this list just a summary of a bunch of downvoted SCPs?
