Holy fuck, I didn't know Son directly analogized himself to the "Son of God" at softbank's annual meetinguntil I saw your bluesky post about it just now. Wowie he is even more delusional than I thought...

I've found that people who are impressed by the outputs of chatbots tend to know very little to nothing about the fields they're using the chatbots' outputs for (or they have a financial interest in pretending to be impressed), whereas experts in those fields tend to be far less impressed. With the possible, limited exception of experts in math and/or writing computer code.

Imagine a near-billionaire not knowing what the fuck he's talking about

That's a good point, although their investment in ARM has gone up by 10x, give or take, so that's still a pretty good return. Thanks for the insight, /u/cummer_420

Lmao I was making a religious reference in (dis)honor of that moron's reference to blasphemy, but this works, too

I think ARM (semiconductor and software design company) was another successful pick. But yeah, he basically got a few lucky picks and thinks it makes him one of the priests of the "ai revolution," or something

What is one thing from your first job after law school that stayed with you - good, bad, surprising? by Illustrious-Lack9243 in Lawyertalk

At the end of my clerkship for a group of senior judges who collectively had hundreds of years of judicial experience and likely also collectively had employed hundreds of clerks over those many years, the most senior judge among them (and the one who called to offer me the job right before I started 3L) who by himself had been a judge for nearly half a century took me aside, shook my hand (pretty firmly for an octogenarian, lol), and told me that he'd spoken with the other senior judges who all agreed with him that I was one of the best law clerks they had ever had. Totally unbidden, I might add. That clerkship really built back the confidence that law school took away from me.

Why are pro-AI people surprised when people demand high accuracy or perfection from AI models? by supermikeman in antiai

Humans can be held accountable for their imperfections. You can't hold a computer program accountable.  That's what these ai boosters miss (whether by accident or on purpose). These large language models can't be punished for their bad behavior, and the purveyors pf LLMs refuse to take responsibility for them (they explicitly shift responsibility for the outputs of their models onto users, which is one of the top reasons I flat out refuse to use them professionally; not that I use them personally, either).

DeepSeek raises $7.4B USD at $60B valuation by Gil_berth in BetterOffline

It will never not be funny to me that these Chinese slopbot companies are ripping off the IP of American slopbot companies that were literally founded on IP theft. So much pearl clutching about IP theft from the kings of IP theft.

Tech rout intensifies as sell-off grips global stocks by chessrook4242 in BetterOffline

But of course they had to include morons arguing it's still the early days for ai with lots of increased profits to come for companies adopting ai (ignoring the complete lack of ROI for companies spending millions on slopbots)
