The way the dude’s body bounced off of it, it definitely looked like it was 400 pounds.

I do, and I also realize I’m a dick, so sorry.

The only thing you got me on there is making all my own food, which I also try to do when I have time. Everything else, yes, I do myself.

Why would I pay somebody money to do a shittier job than I can do.

But yes, I realized my original comment was a little insensitive and rude because I’m just sort of an asshole. So sorry about that.

As another commenter pointed out, I do have a good amount of privilege that allows me to do this stuff, and I’m thankful for that and should work on being less of a jerk.

Consumers are lazy and brain rotted, too much effort to build an htpc or do anything that protect yourselfs and your family’s data when the TV can just do it all for you, who cares that it’s a literal piece of spyware ad riddled garbage.

I guess I shouldn’t be blaming the consumer here, since it’s obviously the predatory capitalist company at fault. But still, I think most people are fucking dumb.

It is what it is. I do personally use LLMs because I recognize it is a tool that is actually good at some things, for instance, cursory research on something I’m working on that can get me a general idea of the knowledge I should be looking into to get the task done. Key aspect being I need to do all the follow up research from real sources to gather more data, and of course verify the assumptions from the LLM.

The problem is people taking the word of the actually incredibly cool (on a math level) next best token generator as the truth of God. Its dumb people doing dumb things, problem is dumb people imo.

Edit: I guess that’s sort of harsh. There should also just be some better education from the people making these tools on the problems and correct ways to use them.

It’s the hype thing to do right now for web browsers, and Firefox is already way behind. I know it may be hard to believe if you only browse Lemmy (like myself), but the average person actually likes these so-called “AI” tools or at least a significant amount of them do.

So Firefox needs to try and attract more normies from chrome, a lot of these “normal” people would be more likely to switch for that 'one killer ai feature".

Also imo we should all be ready to switch to Ladybird when the first version comes out, I know I’ll be running the Alpha. If you don’t know Ladybird is a brand new browser written from the ground up, it’s also open source. https://ladybird.org/

Honestly, no clue. Probably not. You’re right, they have a big obstacle in the way of becoming profitable if they aren’t because they only operate in certain areas they have a lot of training data for.

Waymo self driving cars are very good imo, I live near a location where they operate and drive along side them daily on my way to work and have ridden in one twice. They are way better than human drives in my area.
