11 counts of it.

But someone assessed they were still a valid target, right? We aren’t quite at the fully autonomous attack craft yet, are we? That would be a convenient excuse, blaming the AI/drone because the humans in charge totally wouldn’t have done that. Totally. Especially knowing it would be found out by the world.

Enough buyouts and the parent can have creative acronyms.

That’s an interesting thought. Are mergers usually bad overall? Would it be better for the assets and workers to just be lost? I do think monopolies are bad simply because of the domination of control and the loss of competition, but if X and Y are two of many companies and Y is failing, why is it bad for X to save some of the parts of Y to incorporate it into their own? Maybe there should be limitations and regulations on how much can be done and to what?

I don’t even know the right questions to ask, I just thought the idea was interesting in its absoluteness, and wondered if it might be too simple to say no merging or buying at all.

You’re correct on their limitations. That doesn’t stop corporations from implementing them, sometimes as an extra tool, sometimes as a rash displacement of paid labor, and often without your last step, checking the results they output.

LLMs are a specialized tool, but CEOs are using it as a hammer where they see nails everywhere, and it has displaced some workers. A few have realized the mistake and backtracked, but they didn’t necessarily put workers back. As per usual anytime there is displacement.

And for the record, while LLMs are technically under the general AI classification, they are not AI in the sense of what the term AI brings to the mind (AGI). But they have definitely been marketed as such because what started as AI research turned into a money grab that is still going on.

“No one knows more about construction than me.”

Maybe. It depends on if they raised prices first to capture the losses. I know that seems like what a business would do first and what everyone predicted, but did they?

If it’s true, then Costco just needs to give away free hot dogs meals (drink and side) to their patrons for a year.

Needs a continuation of the help desk, where you end up educating the person on the topic. And at some point get transferred higher up to someone who might actually be able to help, and it disconnects while on hold.

Remember during Covid when he was given a softball question for Trump to respond to the public who might be afraid. He did the same thing. He couldn’t even give a bland, Hollywood President level answer. He attacked the reporter asking it.
