'cuz you are absolutely right, what they are doing is stupid as hell. They are ignoring all the warning klaxons going off that it seems like everyone else is very aware of, but I guess that's why they are super genius CEOs and we are just regular fools and normies.
I just hold out hope that when the bubble bursts, it'll take out companies like Microslop and Oracle. They'll probably get bailed out, but it is fun to dream of a world without Microsoft!

@tante they threw too much money pushing it into everything that didn't need any AI. Take Copilot in Windows, or in Office: just unnecessary.
But the tools for software development, i can tell you as a software engineer, that this stuff just revolutionized our field completely. It's a tectonic activity that just changed it for good. Those who deny it are those who still haven't used it seriously and in 2-3 years will be at risk, if they don't start now.
@alebaffa2 @tante Sorry, your scare tactics simply don't work on us. "You're at risk if you don't start now" is pure hype.

That is why Microsoft and Google are paying influencers between 400K and 600K to sell their AI products:
But hey, those are very serious businesses, they must have done their research and run their cost-benefit analyses to ensure they spend their money wisely, right? Quote:
"Creators can charge up to $100,000 per post, Eckstein said.
“Some of these bigger companies have so much money to spend,” he said, “that they don’t care to negotiate.”"@tante Street vendors of hair growers. Never gets old.
And who copes with all the externalities? Browers are doing proof of work calculations to access many websites. That's more energy consumption added.

@jaredwhite @tante i hope it will be so too.

@tante Indeed, but it's probably safe to assume part of that recklessness in spending is caused by their jump in valuation from the bubble
It's stupid anyway, though, I don't see how that 100,000$ given to a YouTuber could provide a substantial return on investment
Compared to the running costs of AI alone, $100k is small change.
Compared to the anticipated(!) revenue, it's practically free advertising.
They should he paying much *more* according to their infallible business logic.

Real value sells itself. This feels like hype-driven marketing, not organic adoption.
The bubble signs are there.

@HolgerTDittmann @tante '59% of executives say quantum-enabled AI will transform their industry by 2030'.
Jesus Christ.
I have a new business plan. I'm going to offer a service where I will survey a company's executives to find these people, and then personally hand them a P45. My rates will be low because my job satisfaction will be immense.
@Grouchybeast @HolgerTDittmann @tante with a low rate you‘ll never get hired for this
