I mean the moon is an extremely hostile lifeless rock. Technically it's nature but it's not like you're harming an ecosystem by mining there. On the contrary you could argue that you are protecting the Earth's by outsourcing mineral extraction there. Also as others have mentioned it would take an absurd amount of mining to appreciably change its mass. This is something we are nowhere near capable of.

The IEA has long history of greatly underestimating the adoption of renewables. To the point where I question if the Oil lobby influences their reports. Every single year they revise their estimates and they're always an underestimate. We are currently way above their best case predictions from 5 or 10 years ago. For some reason they always try to model the growth as a linear graph when it has clearly been following an S curve for quite some time now.

Yup and this could easily be replaced on Microsoft's end.

Bing, Microsoft office, Android (these apps all work best on Android and Google legally probably can't block them lol), and Outlook.

Currently they don't see the adoption because it's easier to stay in the Google ecosystem for most people (myself included). If GPT sees right integration into them all however, this could significantly improve their value over what Google has if Google doesn't respond appropriately.

I focused on Mobile here but now that I think about it I'm not sure Microsoft even cares that much about mobile as most of their income comes from businesses.

I have no problem with the tech being used. In fact I think it's exciting and everyone should use it if it benefits them. I just don't care to see screenshots everytime someone inputs a prompt they think is interesting lol. It'd be like if when smartphones came out I posted screenshots of everytime I found a new app I thought was cool or something.

If I want to ask ChatGPT a question I can ask it myself, why do I want to read screenshots someone else posted? It's like if when Google came out I posted screenshots of results I found that I liked. Yeah it's cool, but it also gets boring really quick.

But anyways, clearly most people here disagree with me and that's fine.

The AI subs like /r/singularity are way more optimistic than this sub in my experience. This sub has a habit of devolving into a circle jerk about everything turning into a hopeless hellscape with climate collapse and immortal billionaires ruling over us for all eternity.

It gets real fucking old sometimes and only started to get real bad after it was made a default sub.
