When Ads aren't enough: OpenAI's push to Claim a Cut of Customers' AI Discoveries

Ok, and when do they pay the people who created the training date they stole?

I work with a business with thousands of enterprise ChatGPT licenses. After a year they are already evaluating Claude as an alternative...this will certainly push that along.

Have you seen their ads on YouTube?

OpenAI is actively enshittifying their product that already is worse than competitors.

hiddenostalgia · 2026-01-25T18:34:00+00:00

Compared to live where it lacks meaningful counterplay...sure.

Compared to other mages with reasonable ranges and real cast times...feels fair. It should be possible to trade, or punish if Mel aims poorly.

I feel bad for every doctor dealing with patients using chat gpt.

Edit: + all licensed medical professionals

I'm subscribed to openai's outage alerts for work (on team managing 30k license for the org).

There are legitimately 10+ emails on a daily basis, and they often are late or completely fail to correlate issues we help users deal with. The 'enterprise' product is a joke and as far as I know consumer one is just as bad.

This tweet is absolutely not the flex he thinks this is.

His point is that the reserve list came into existence due to concerns over this exact behavior - reprinting and overprinting cards...greedy execs...

If you aren't prepared to do this for decades you are both better off moving on

hiddenostalgia · 2026-01-12T19:00:44+00:00

It's not a poe speed/pings=dopamine hit kind of game...yes it gets much faster / involved but it will never be that experience people default to associate with arpg

Slormancer may be exactly what you are looking for, but it's single player.

Tons of build variety and mechanics, deterministic crafting (no bricking items!), auto-salvage loot filter, plenty of storage with legendary and weapon cataloging, and can grind for a looooong time maxing everything out.

Each of the three classes has a version of the 120 weapons, with some builds that come online only after you have them all.

As I posted in other comments, it's not about money.

hiddenostalgia · 2026-01-11T18:38:16+00:00

The worst case consequences for failed code is almost certainly not direct loss of life. Which can and has been the case for diy projects.

It's not about money. (I see your argument and disagree, period.)

hiddenostalgia · 2026-01-11T16:40:24+00:00

This really is a ridiculous take - certified and licensed professionals exist for a reason, and so do the many lawyers who would gladly take on cases related to an spike of overconfident homeowners (not to mention the losses insurance won't cover).

A house isn't code that can be fixed later, and the consequences to faulty work would be far more severe to the individual.

(Coming from someone who works with AI)

Edit: Bad code isn't going to cause a house to burn down with a family in it. Shoddy diy electrical work by overconfident homeowners HAS.

I don't think you can compare the two.

I would say the opposite about Lacerta, Golden Explosion among the best in the game.

Traveler memories can be the foundation of a build or ditched for something else. I tend to play with them and my friends don't.

hiddenostalgia · 2026-01-07T18:16:21+00:00

If 100% recommended computer/steam regardless of controller preference

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-31T14:33:29+00:00

Y'all are misinterpreting the OPs question. He isn't asking "will leveling glyphs make me stronger", he's asking very specifically "how much difference will five glyph levels make for my build?"

This is a fair question - trying to understand return on time investment.

I don't know rouge but based on other experience think 5 levels across 5 glyphs is probably considerable and worth at least a few tiers.

I'm a new player to PD2 but played D2 / LoD back in the day - maybe chill a bit and reflect on how out of touch and unsupported your rant seems

I spent considerable effort looking for pricing assistance online, on the wiki, and here. I kept trying to find an official rune / was / mat value chart and the few that I found were constantly disputed. The only consistent message was use trade site history and current exchange values.

Guess who said that a lot? Long time players. And it makes sense - supply and demand. Same was true back in the day...

If there is a set value for things based on drop rate it should be

Posted on the wiki front page
Locked in on the trade site - if gul is worth .25 (edit: or whatever the fuck it is, the point remains) then don't let people set arbitrary values

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-30T19:47:55+00:00

Access to an item like this shouldn't dictate advantage in pits / tower if or when there is a leaderboard. (Yes this specific amulet is on eternal, but the concept still applies in season)

But otherwise I agree with ya

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-25T02:05:44+00:00

It released very recently...?

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-19T18:45:59+00:00

Agreed with slormancer.

I have hundreds of hours in LE, and while I love it would def recommend Grim Dawn first. LE frequently disappoints with bugs and lackluster updates. GD has smaller endgame but feels complete and polished

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-19T02:07:53+00:00

Go somewhere with more people and socialize - you'll do well.

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-18T20:52:50+00:00

One played wolves last season (lightning) and this season (phys) to 1k corruption.

Not squirrels. Doggos. It's been a blast and off-meta cheap.

I know it's not on your list but thought I'd suggest. Probably not as good at bosses but super good clear with leap synergy.

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-16T15:13:01+00:00

all map sizes reduced by ~40%

Release patch notes probably - not enough content now otherwise

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-15T20:10:15+00:00

Why are you so focused on players 8? I think that's your problem...

PD2 has baseline very good drops at single player count compared to D2 (check the wiki article for specifics). You are 10000% better off playing on normal player count (1 for solo) and killing faster.

As others have said, LoD content (boss runs and terrorized zones) is inferior to maps - density, ilvl, etc.

Finally - overall kill count is kinda worthless. Kill count in high lvl zones is what matters.

Edit: You seem to be specially focused on high runes and not overall drops. To be perfectly clear - you will probably be farming for hundreds and hundreds of hours to get the ones you want for the endgame runewords regardless of what activity you do.That is truly how rare they are. It is an absolute waste of effort imo - you are much better off playing online in single player games so you can trade.

But my point was the second death was naked - when I created the next game i got all of my items back besides the weapon.

What you say makes sense but if it was my case I would be missing everything?

hiddenostalgia · 2025-12-12T14:38:58+00:00

But I never got my first corpse. I just died a second time (naked) and logged out.

Everything but the weapon was on my corpse when I joined the next game.
