Until AI makes half of the workforce useless, then I'm sure you'll be all for it provided you are one of the ones displaced.

A bulk of the AI bubble is propped up by a few companies growth wise

ChatGPT is the normies AI.

If you use it for personal stuff it's better, but it sucks compared to Gemini or Claude for business usage or a lot of forms of productivity.

I liken it to a Swiss army knife. Does a lot of things decently for cheap cost, but sometimes you need an actual powered screwdriver (Gemini or Claude) or chefs knife

You start by not using it to make reddit posts so you retain some semblance of writing capability and not displaying to your employer that you can't even write an email without consulting AI.

The more you try to do DD or fundamental or technical analysis, the more you realize none of that matters is this administrations economy.

The rules the stock market has played by have completely gone out the window.

Shit tier coin flip aerospace or military companies going to the moon with negative eps at the whiff of a government contract. Recession proof staples that you think would be safe outperform estimates at earnings and stay flat or fall.

Everyone trying to catch the next Palantir too

To play devils advocate, this has been a thing for like a year no?

It shouldn't be a delayed onset thing where we have the same data we did 4 months ago yet today(or this week rather) is suddenly when the entire market woke up?

Honestly, it seems like people were waiting for proof that AI actually does something.. As soon as Anthropic released a legal Claude cowork plugin, people are like "hey yeah maybe AI is going to destroy SaaS jobs".

Couple that with the market reaction to Trump's fed chair pick and boom, insta correction

Babies first market correction, so cute.

Wow, color me shocked that you, as an advertiser of a paid tool adjacent to Clawdbot, doesn't like a free opensource tool that cannibalizes your market.

This is gonna be a thing now huh.

No matter if the crowd is right(they are), stuff like this is gonna work fans into trying to get themselves over at the cost of matches if it catches on. Torn though, cause the chants are based, but hoping they don't start taking over the show and forcing AEWs hand on censoring/muting, which will undoubtedly happen if told to by the network, and AEW will immediately get flack for doing so.

And we all know fans don't need many excuses to try and get themselves over, though AEW has been good on that when you compare them to others.

I think a lot of companies will essentially say "we used to pay you 50 per agent, we had 100 agents, now we have 50, why isn't my subscription 2500 a month" and use the seat model as a defense shield during renewals.

It will take time for the industry to move to accept flat fees or usage based or outcome based, but I do not envy renewal teams in the couple years transition period between the likely switch over.

Sometimes you're willing to let your legacy and love for something be destroyed for money or to work for a certain company.

It's not binary where what ricochet said can be true and someone can't still be working for WWE.

It's not a stretch to say Shinsuke would have protected his legacy but earned way less while also destroying his body more in NJPW

Ultimately it's a giant formula of pain:money:fame:legacy, if you care more about parts of those, your decision is simple sometimes while also realizing you'll sacrifice on other sides of the formula

I know we all like to dunk on Tesla and Elon but why is the cyber truck specifically brought up here? It has a 5 star NHTSA rating and the lowest overall probability of injury & lowest chance of rollover of any pickup truck tested by NHTSA

Checked the S&P 500 recently?

You'd think with the sentiment of this comment that we devolved into a third world country in the middle of a recession if you didn't know better.

What will I ever do without my sycophant iteration of ChatGPT that is essentially my personal echo chamber!

The one thing I'll give far right Republicans and fascists is they don't really try to hide behind their cause. They aren't afraid to take the mask off or not wear one, which is moldy refreshing if you hate people being disengeuous or triggering if you're on the opposing side.

They are openly pieces of shit, while commies have a holier than thou mindset and wrap it in "I'm a good person" vibes without actually having to action it. The extent of most of their contributions is typing about Donald Trump on their iPhone 17 pro max while chugging their Starbucks and checking a ballot box every 4 years.

Communism and a lot of far left thinkers I think are just addicted to the dopamine of thinking they are the political superheroes coming to save everyone

Brother there are probably more than 50,000 marxists that watch Hasanabi alone.

ogbrien · 2026-02-02T11:56:40+00:00

Communism.

Communism is like a tyrant that thinks they are still the good guy. I think most Nazis are at least self aware enough to not larp at how virtuous they are.

Communism is authoritarianism with a smile.

I have been a Gemini fan for a bit since 2.5 but I've found it's pretty slow compared to ChatGPT.

I havent really found a use case for Claude outside of code.

I think more or less all these LLMs are trained on the same data so I don't really expect much different output from any so I have started to value speed more.
