Eighteen months? They have that much lifeline? Wow.

“This is wework on steroids”

The entire industry is wework, not just OpenAI.

The thing is, OpenAI have been 18 months from running out of money since this bullshit all kicked off. Unfortunately, investors keep throwing piles of money at them.

I worked with AI daily as a programmer and let me tell you something people aren't talking about.

People are myopic about the way they are looking at this whole data centre rush. Its not about speeding up ChatGPT or anything so prosaic. What they are doing is building the compute infrastructure to integrate AI into everything.

So what people need to realise is AI != ChatGPT. There are a plethora of different "AI"s that aren't LLMs. And a lot of those non-LLMs are VERRRRY good at what they do.

They want to deploy a horde of AIs and apply them to all data sets, real-time or stored. They'll have AIs watching you drive, and fining you, they'll have marketing designed at warp speed tailored to fuck with you specifically. Recording conversations on the street and processing and aggregating them. They'll start to tie together government DBs and use AIs to mine them for information.

They are automating control and power and im not seeing it talked about anywhere. They haven't even begun their fuckery yet.

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

Was that supposed to make me care? wish they ran out of money sooner.

Finally some good news!

Dont worry nvidia will give them a billion so they can pay nvida a billion for more gpu's. Its the circle of grift.

OpenAI has been the weakest financial link for a while. Once it falls though... the whole thing implodes.

Its difficult to know what it'll look like on the "other side" of the bubble popping. It'll be very bad though. Maybe afterward we'll be able to heal. Better be ready to fight... or hunker down.

1 like = 1 dollar removed from OpenAI

Couldn't have happened to a better company! Hopefully, OpenAI does run out of money and because they've done fuck all with gassed up LLMs this failure will be a Dark Sign on a Hollowed Tech Corpse, showing that this is a futile venture. AI cannot be real, because they never put any real effort into it as in figured out what human consciousness actually is, invested countless years+cash into building an artificial brain that functioned like a human one for example. Or even better, ways to power and cool these data centers without threatening the world with ecological disaster. Also, not threatening the livelihoods of people in general and actively stealing their data.

This bid for so called "AI" was just a get rich scheme that was never going to fulfill any of the hype or overpromising that Big Tech hope posting fuckwits and other shills promoted.

I honestly wouldn't mind AI, if it lead to a Post Scarcity society like Star Trek. However, a bunch of Corporate Ghouls could never be trusted to steer humanity in that direction.

Does that mean the bubble is about to pop?

OpenAI all of a sudden

The sooner, the better.

Could we maybe wait a couple of months? We're in that awkward and awful period where you buy a new house, fix up, and sell the old one. If you move this way, for a few months you own two houses. Can we just hold off on the whole economy collapsing for a bit longer?

Onward the Butlerian Jihad!

If we could cause a mass wave of subscription cancellations we could finish them off. I know no on here is subscribing to them but if you know anyone else who is urge them to cancel their ChatGPT/OpenAI subscriptions. If you have the chance to provide feedback for why you canceled be sure to mention you're unhappy OpenAI donated $25 million to Trump and unhappy about the ads.

Have they asked the ai how to get more money? Or is the problem that they already asked and are all out of ideas?

Timer till govt bailout

Please please please let this be true, pleaseeee.

If there was a such thing as a free market it would go bankrupt….unfortunately we have facist idiots at the helm so I’m sure they’ll bail it out by cutting the last shred of medicade or scrapping school lunches for the poor

Get ready for the mother of all short sales

Burst, you damn bubble. Burst!

Good! Excellent.. Wonderful news!

Me: Plays "Speed the Collapse" at full volume.
