the article makes it sound like they were just buying it for themselves, not to sell it

You could also grow your own vegetables but you probably don’t.

I’m pretty sure duckduckgo uses bing for search results. But the way this article describes it, the gpt features will be a layer on top of search, so i guess duckduckgo won’t benefit. oh well.

if anything it will make original oil paintings more desirable

It’s a video where the guy goes to the place and tries it, then instead of giving us his review he says “so what do you guys think?”

How TF should we know? You’re the one that went there. You tell us!

yes i’ve started to use chatGPT for these kinds of things too

I can’t even figure out what IBM sells anymore. Who hires them and for what?

according to the article they are able to use a solvent to capture the CO2 from emissions from power or steel plants, and use a reactor to convert it to meth, which is an excellent idea considering how many people are addicted to meth and will want to smoke it right up.

the internet is already broken. most of the search results i get seem like they were written by bots, and many of them were written by low paid writers who just write posts based on what people are searching for. Half the stuff i find is not only wrong but in many cases nonsensical and self contradictory.

I actually know someone who works for one of these places. She writes articles on things she knows nothing about by just rewriting articles that are already out there, thus regurgitating and spreading the nonsense.

She showed me a tech article she had written and it was completely wrong, yet the seo made it rise to the top of the results, alongside a bunch of other articles on the same topic that also got it completely wrong.

It’s becoming pointless to search

Vernor Vinge didn’t call it the net of a million lies for nothing

Disney has almost 200,000 employees. If the average salary is $75k then $76m adds up to around 1000 employees. But as far as i can tell they laid off around 4000 people.

Kim Stanley Robinson’s Ministry For The Future proves right again

outperforming the current system isn’t saying much. the weather forecast is always wrong.

This article is written as if it was for kids!

I’m sure he’s a much better engineer than he is a writer

This is nonsensical. It’s like an article stating that in the future when everyone’s testicles are attached to electrodes, some bad actors may give you a shock you didn’t ask for.

The assumption that everyone will be wearing these stupid headsets has no basis in reality. If anything, recent events suggest that no one wants them and the companies who try to force it on us will fail miserably.

woah

it’s an article about a song that has 100m streams but no link? Very helpful thanks.

There are two basic kinds of jokes that are almost always good for a laugh:

1. Unexpected stupidity.
