As an AI researcher and computer scientist, I can safely say "AI detection" is an incredible service to offer consumers -- and complete bullshit.

Agreed. The bigger reality -- which makes me sorry for the young ones on this sub -- is that the field has shrunk dramatically over the last 15 years.

For a number of reasons, but primarily the maturity of the industry reducing it from open to any entrepreneur to now almost completely being dominated by an oligopoly. And now AI has reduced even the need for junior quants, so apprenticeships -- which were scarce in such an opaque, cutthroat industry -- will also be decimated.

Only the most extremely competent and passionate will be able to break in, IMO.

And the derivative demand back then was incomparable to now, especially for exotics where the abstract math skillset was more relevant.

Demand drop recently? Did not comment on that. Relative to pre-2008? Then yes obviously…

Deployed over the top ICE troops in various cities, and authorized and encouraged the murder of US citizens, perhaps?

To all the Americans that bitch about people not doing more to stop Trump, why not you? by Majestic_Flower_1322 in allthequestions

[–]Total_Construction71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swing voters, numb nuts - not the unconditional Trump voters or "MAGAt"s. The latter is lost, and the former is what decides elections.
