lol fair. I guess now it's more "Hey I have an *idea* for something someone else already made 2 decades ago, but it'll be way less environmentally friendly and scam a ton of people out of their money somehow"

that is the standard techbro hypescheme these days

"hey I invented this cool new thing!"

"You mean that thing that already existed? And your version is worse in every way?"

"Yeah! 40 trillion dollars please"

In the scenario that we do actually make superintelligent AGI, then yes, I agree that this prediction is sound. I just think that believing that Generative Ai can possibly become intelligent is laughable

yeah exactly, we saw big pushes for Crypto for a couple years cause it was the new hotness and so many people made tons of money off of it

Then it was NFTs...

Then it was the Metaverse...

Then it was Gen Ai...

the closest I think was the NFT Craze, but NFTs are even more blatantly worthless than GenAi ever was even in its infancy so that died out before too many investors really started to push it

yeah once again examples of CEOs missing the forest for the trees

Making your placeholders look "good" means it's easier for it to accidentally slip into the final product or put off replacing it until it's too late

God I still remember that quote that "minimum wage shouldn't be enough to live off of"

If that's so then who tf is supposed to work those jobs!?

this game does actually look pretty sick, if I wasn't about to go travelling I'd try the demo right now

Its always so frustrating to see rich people claim that being poor is "a sign of weakness" or a result of personal decisions or any of that crap, while they funnel millions of dollars into creating laws that keep poor people poor and the rich wealthy

I'm not even gonna deny that they look cool af, that's the point, hold off all the effort on cool looking weapons until they force us to buy them it sucks
