Ironically Musk was the biggest boo-man of the Internet last year when he refused to close access to sites some American politicians wanted to remove.

He really put a foot down for net neutrality.

Well, at least so far.

There's nothing fake about it.

And garbage is garbage, whether its created by humans, or created by AI.

If ChatGPT is generating garbage, and this magazine can't tell the difference between the work an AI is spitting out and what humans are putting out, then what the humans were putting out was also garbage.

I’m supposed to be saving for a goddamn house.

FHA is not an option. A 10% down payment is literally $90,000+ anywhere within 30 mins of where my wife and I work. Ideally, I would love to put down 20%, and even then I’m still competing with cash offers.

Sure, an extra 2k is a lot for someone who likes living paycheck to paycheck. I don’t like that. I won’t like being a forever renter. I don’t want to start a 30-year mortgage when I’m 40. I want real estate to pass onto my kids because this economy will be even more fucked in time.

Starlink still sucks in urban areas, until they fix that it probably won’t be ‘Every ship, train, plane, work truck, semi, and military unit.

Also this thing is still huge so it won’t work on cars and you have to be pretty stationary to use it effectively. I feel like this will just be replacing those big old satellite dishes from the 90s

Emotions have a chemical component computers inherently lack. I think no matter how lifelike AI interactions might seem, it'll always just be a more elaborate version of this meme:

Programmer: Are you sentient?

AI Programmed to Say Yes: Yes

Programmer: Holy fuck...
