    Most people here have no idea what works for the majority of people - who don’t want to spend time figuring stuff out. I’m sure many here live in delulu land wondering why everyone…

    The whole point of click and point (gui) was that one barely had to engage the brain vs using a terminal. The ideal experience is where one’s resources are able to be allocated suc…

    Most people don’t want to accept and believe that the only viable revenue stream is selling tokens in relation to software development. All the other stuff is nice… but you will co…

    People who participate in the stock market (which tends to be many people who may even be anti-capitalist) do so in the hope of generating excess returns. Is this really a function…

    Reasoning by analogy only works if the characteristics that comprise both things are shared in great magnitude. If you really believe that then… lol.

    It’s easier to view it in terms of DCF - the value of a cash flow generating asset = present value of expected cash flows discounted back at a risk discount adjusted rate. In other…

    I suggest you watch the original iPhone video launch - Steve compares the iPhone with the existing smartphones of the time. You’re taking for granted that we know how things panned…

    It’s our job not to fall for the trap if that is what is being said behind closed doors ;) Edit - lol @ the bozo who downvoted my post. Is that you scam Altman?

    That’s exactly why you haven’t lost it.

    This argument has held up in the past but there’s no certainty that during this current period where LLM’s are not perfect (and in many cases far from perfect) - they can ever beco…

    I did not comment on whether it was a loss or profit position. “Until the day comes that they properly break out the financials you, nor the other poster have any idea as to what t…

    Yep lol. Every investor and portfolio manager in the world is begging for a signal to say the returns really are coming on all this capex spend.

    Nailed it. I reckon most humans never learn the valuable lessons of the past. As you put it - nobody cares about the technology in and of itself. They care about “ok cool what’s in…

    An app that can run queries on all LLM’s at the same time and then figure out which answer is less like an advert might be the solution lol. A bit like ad block plus. Or using open…

    Apples advantage was that they did everything in house and had the marketing and distribution capabilities. And now you’ve got the ecosystem lock in. In hindsight it’s obvious why …
