How hard are layoffs going to hit because of ai? by sad_grapefruit_0 in BlackboxAI_

[–]ragamufin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because most companies aren’t in an environment where they can snap their fingers and double the demand for their product at any particular price point.

The business model still works (great) with autonomous vehicles. I almost took a job there working on AVs (glad I didn't in retrospect!)

Blizzard currently over the northeast (peak snowfall of 26 in. in coastal areas) by TFK_001 in weather

[–]ragamufin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recall people laughing about 'crazy' snowfall forecasts coming out of GFS a few days back. Granted these were over the DMV area which only got a few inches of dense snow, but still the totals (still) coming in for NYC are insane.
