"Generative AI is the perfect monster of the Rot Economy — a technology that lacks any real purpose sold as if it could do literally anything, one without a real business model or killer app, proliferated because big tech no longer innovates, but rather clones and monopolizes. Yes, this much money can be this stupid, and yes, they will burn billions in pursuit of a non-specific dream that involves charging you money and trapping you in their ecosystem."

"AI"/LLMs were invented with a purpose and an intent. They are what Reddit has been incubating since before […]

@tante So disappointing to see another computational technology "solution" feverishly searching for commercial problems to solve.
