Can we please stop posting headlines from Kalshi and Polymarket like they are news organizations?
They only do it to draw more people in to gamble with money they can't lose right now.

Block/ban evading, upvote-obsessed mass poster doesn't give no fucks.
That is cm002 MO. Despite not being a bot. He's generated many accounts across numerous instances, and posts without consideration or context. I've blocked so many of his accounts but I still see he shit. Lemmy is almost perfect if there weren't ban evaders laughing at the rules of the sub and posting anyways.
Maybe this is already supported, but I don't think it is. Wildcard or regex is blocking should be allowed. We should be able to block any username regardless of instance, or ones that match a pattern would be even better.
Yup, I'm quite familiar. The crybaby banned me from dozens of communities they've managed to get modded on because I downvote their posts.
I though about making this kind of bots on twitter.
“Home fucking is killing prostitution”
Danger danger! My yacht might not compete.
Breaking! Something somebody said almost 3 years ago.
once again, millennials are killing a whole industry by refusing to spend money they don't have
Won't somebody think of the poor industrialists 😢
idk man, McNuggets are like crack. The rest of the menu, though, sure, meh.
This is what really gets me with AI and why its 1000% a bubble.
Putting aside all the ethical problems.
Putting aside the environment problems.
Putting aside how basically everyone hates it.
Lets say its popular and will take off etc.
Its all going to become more efficient enough you can run it all locally. Why are we trying to piss away zillions of dollars on data centers and these stupid companies, when 99.9% of uses will work with a model running locally on the GPU/NPU?
Because its easier to disguise the surveillance centers that way
Running is one thing, training is another though. That doesn't come cheap and is not really feasible at home.
However training also doesn’t require 40,000 datacenters.
Hyping up training and increasing its costs doesn't keep the bubble alive.
It won't, no.
Much already can. Even software dev.
People who are focusing on consumer side ships and hardware (which I have been told Apple is) are going to be the big winners in the end.

The idea that the hardware we currently have is good enough for future applications hasn't been true of software in general. As better hardware becomes available, software has improved to take advantage of it. Also, the improvements in software have allowed the development of even better hardware, in a virtuous cycle.
Also, regarding local vs cloud computing in general, datacenters provide an economy of scale that can't be matched by local compute. Shared datacenters are also more efficient than everyone having expensive hardware that they only use a fraction of the time. This is why datacenters were expanding rapidly even before the recent advances in large language models.
Rich person after making a thing: This thing is super dangerous and nobody else should be allowed to make it. However, I can be trusted to use it, but nobody else should ever be allowed to make this dangerous thing.
That's like basically the defense industry for any startup, you need to have inertia from the getgo, start producing your prototype that probably shouldn't be legal in your hands and quickly make connections and then score contracts. Or I guess you can just be the son, son in law or friend of the president these days.
He's right. Better leave it solely to the AI companies, who've habitually shown such moral restraint.
Monsanto says homegrown food can't be guaranteed to be safe for human consumption...
Dangerous to his business model.
Oh, whatever happened to "you can't put the genie back into the bottle"? Who's the Luddite now?
Is the local ai coming after your job now? Ah man that must suck huh.
(Still not gonna use any ai models whatsoever but this is hilarious)
This! I hate abusive parents, that's just cheating me out of yelling at kids. Why else would I be a teacher
I discovered a long time ago that making burgers at home is quicker and the items are much fresher, and I make it the way I want it.
I know what it meant, but for a few seconds I imagined McDonald's employees working from home to cook burgers and then what? How does the customer get their burger? I'm all for WFH, but maybe that one isn't quite there yet.
How does the customer get their burger?
Doordash obviously
the future of supply chain management is AI-controlled pods moving individual items where they need to go at an AI-determined urgency, at every step in the chain
fuck kanban, that shit isn't flexible enough
It's a danger to their (theoretical) profits.
In a capitalistic, absurd world (the current one) it makes sense for McDonalds to start poisoning grocery store meant while maintaining their own pure reserves so the masses can start flocking back to the commercial burger stalls. Capitalism, bad. Socialism, good.
While both at home can develop biohazzards, the meat one is marginally less dangerous
If I cook a burger at home and get sick and shit my brains out and blow a hole in my porcelain toilet who am I going to sue?
So the Anthropic CEO is a piece of shit. What else is new?
