structure of everyday life by braudel meow-fiesta would give you lots of ideas how commodities production was close to impossible in myriads of ways: energy, population density, logistics, food production efficiency, on all fronts it was fucked in important ways

hmmmm, i thought it sounded kinda less offensive and also as a less-er gradation, but if it's first comparison that came to mind, might be too much. i was more coming from some kind of bloodborn/pussyhound combo and arriving at different implication (but blanked out on b-made, if i'm honest)

i still think fears of it being unsustainable are oveblown (by one lib zitron), if open ai displaces google as search engine of choice, there goes your 700 billion evaluation, easy peasy. just the same their revenue issues, are, on the whole, trivial, oh boo hoo they need 30 billion in revenue? pentagon loses that amount of money in cushions each month, and it's nothing compared to the scale of tarp program to buoy whole economy, i would bet if choosing between stock market crash or paying protection money to open ai to make charade last a year longer, trump will make an obvious choice.

now, i don't think it's a sound business proposition in that any chump can make their ai model run search, bringing marxist rate of profit collapse (due to organic composition of capital) in that specific industry is just out of whack and easily copyable. but that doesn't mean strategic injection of liquidity won't save it for an election year or whatever

*400 billion in datacenters is fucking whack, but that's just tech fashies pissing their own money away to make cat videos apparently and remove "les createurs" out of equation, and who gives a shit about them.

To understand what we’re all dealing with and how the AI sausage is made, I entered the slop mines — to try to make my own AI documentary. I fed a prompt into ChatGPT, which produced a script. I then fed parts of the script into two different AI content platforms, ElevenLabs and Descript. And then cut it all together the old-fashioned way, splicing real-life footage into the film when I ran out of credits and didn’t want to fork over hundreds of dollars. This thing below cost me about $40 to make, with a lot of that money probably flowing to Google and OpenAI.

the ouroslop will consume all lmao

i veer into absurdist claims about them being paid shills for bill gates, leftist with passing notions of ownership should be able to string 3-handshake conspiracy how their opponent is a pedo on any position available (who benefits, how they benefit, and why this person in front of is the useful idiot of them and why they are a part of pedo cabal)

this is peak efficiency, although i wonder how hard it is to just make new file to point at old with small change where needed. like reference pointers of old file throughout until change, if you have to have files be immutable and easily rolled back due to some sony nonsense

musings of debatable value, might delete next yearin the new year, i'm coining new slur: pussyborn.

it implies a lot of things to a lot of people, while being a basic statement of reality.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Saudi Arabia bombed Yemen’s port city of Mukalla on Tuesday after a weapons shipment from the United Arab Emirates arrived for separatist forces in the war-torn country, and warned that it viewed Emirati actions as “extremely dangerous.”

 
 

The problem is not border-crossings of advanced technology; it is an enduring politics that delimits the coordination of research, investment, and shared reward on the boundaries of the nation-state. To sober minds, a different system is farce.

The politics of export controls, like many features of industrial policy, is about whose priorities get to stand in as the “national interest.” Where big business and national defense diverge, which gets first claim to the extravagant powers of the state? If nothing else, fluctuating chip controls hint at what years ago seemed unspeakable: a malleability of national security, once ironclad, as new ventures come into conflict with tactics of strategic exclusion.

always bet on neocons, smh

billionaires won't tell me all how to make money, ergo, books are useless. i'm a strategist btw.
