But these people who are getting paid to humanise AI are fantastic opportunists. Sure, it’s not a great job, but they have effectively recognised a new seat at a moment when we’re redefining the idea of productivity.
That’s fucking soul crushing.
We just fired you to hire this machine, however, if you’d like to stick around and edit for it, we will pay you 1/4 to 1/2 your current rate.
Jesus…fuck that guy.
It should eliminate your need to work, but Musk feeds on the attention and less so the money. There’s not a thrill left he can’t afford.
Running around and acting important is all he has left.
I was going to scoff at the Prius…the battery is only 1500$.
I need a Prius frame in an El Camino body.
Pbpbpbp…agile fails fast by design.
The counter from the article is you need a specification first, and if you reveal the system wasn’t going to work during requirements gathering and architecture, then it didn’t count as a failure.
However, in my experience, architects are vastly over priced resources and specifications cost you almost as much as the rest of the project due to it.
TLDR…it’s a shit article that confuses fail fast with failure.
Er…shit…was off by half…it was 50k an employee.
Yes…I’m sure FF is intimately involved in Amazon internal politics. I’m sure they were made aware of every person fired to pay for their show before it was booked last year.
It’s a gig. A highly paying gig. They don’t fucking care who’s in the audience.
Dave is making money. Don’t blame him.
I quit a company for this. We wouldn’t give our star performers raises, but they somehow managed to pull off a 7 million dollar one week party for the whole company. It would’ve been something like 100k per employee had they just handed out bonuses.
We lost a wave of talent after that and their stock dropped 80%. I’m glad I cashed out when I did.
Kurt wasn’t offered millions for a private show.
Then Bing it is. I switched on my daily machine and DDG has been ok. Still a lot of sponsored shit I don’t need, but better than getting a solid lie from Google
I thought it was a really good representation of the OpenAI search engine.
Just imagine a word where all the people talk like LLMs
Have you talked to real people lately? I thinking I’m leaning towards the dystopian version of humanity.
That’s one way to stop a union.
I would too, but it really depends on the company. If I can do it, I’m WFH for the rest of my career for companies < 1000 people.
FAANG (or whatever it is these days) are awful fucking people to work for. One of the developers I respect most in my career walked out on .5M in bonuses on Amazon because of their ranking system for his employees. I was shocked.
But depending on the employer it’s still a very good gig. But if you’re at the wrong place, it’s like the upper circles of hell.
Well…Trump didn’t sign it…It must be good right?
I’d point you to the space episode of Black Mirror.
Personally, don’t know. I’m pretty liberal and I’d be flattered if someone had deep fake nudes of me.
But I understand the counter argument.
It’s a weird moral conundrum.
The big cost would be satellite and radar coverage. We have that already.
It does nudge you…but it’s not full screen ads that take multiple clicks to get through every week. I was a Windows zealot through W7…W10 got bad…W11 got me to start using Apple and Linux.
They are dirt cheap around me, which is why I see so many of them. I saw a 2016 Model S with the Ludacris update go for 13k. I kind of wanted it just to drive one, then I looked up the repair prices.
Sure… I’d get a maybe 200 mile range out of it in the summer…but once winter hit I was looking at like 25k-50k to replace the battery and the motors.
I can swap the motor and transmission in my car for less than 10k and have a mostly new car.
I guess my position is if a car needs an OTA update, it’s a critical failure by the manufacturer. They should be 99.999%.
Because Bezos jerks off at the thought of immortality and he has fuck you money to jerk off with.
It seems like if I were going to build something to try and test time, it’d be functional and good for humanity. Let’s see if we can build a probe to outlast voyager. Let’s build an ocean in the middle of the desert…things like that.
