    Dear Fedi friends,

    I hereby present you my new favorite website: https://isaiprofitable.com, which tracks the spending and revenue of all the major AI companies.

    Oh it is glorious - the perfect link to share with AI-pilled people in your life.

    Spoiler alert: there is a NO in big red letters on the homepage. And there's a running tally of the money spent on AI since the page loaded.

    @davidgerard you would love it

      @_elena I love how this is presented where at first glance you read the numbers up top and get the impression that they're half way to profitability until you scroll down and realize that Nvidia is the only company making money and nobody else is even close @davidgerard

        @_elena @davidgerard why does it matter if it's profitable? (I abhor "AI", BTW)

          Thank you for a consequential followup to https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com

          I would have wished for a little bit more cynical name though.

          Also, it seems so far that there's only one profiteer in the gravedigger business: the shovel maker.

                            I sent this site to someone I know who preaches that “capitalism will shift the market towards saving the planet’s ecosystem”

                            He sent me back a screenshot of the change in NVDA price over the past couple years and said “It’s done pretty well for the past 3.5 years! The answer is yes, AI has been very profitable [for] anyone with exposure to those AI platform stocks in an IRA or 401(k) and many users of ChatGPT, Claude, etc, who pay little but now can’t imagine life without it”

                                He went on to say
                                “You asked a simple question about whether AI is profitable, and it clearly has been for many people. I wasn’t making a value judgment about ‘worth it.’ The article you shared took too narrow a view”
                                without even a hint of irony. His density absolutely infuriates me.

                                    He went on to say
                                    “You asked a simple question about whether AI is profitable, and it clearly has been for many people. I wasn’t making a value judgment about ‘worth it.’ The article you shared took too narrow a view”
                                    without even a hint of irony. His density absolutely infuriates me.

                                    @_elena All that is to say, I suppose, congratulations to the ~0.00001% of humanity who get to “profit” while the man-damned planet burns to the fucking ground.

                                      Dear Fedi friends,

                                      I hereby present you my new favorite website: https://isaiprofitable.com, which tracks the spending and revenue of all the major AI companies.

                                      Oh it is glorious - the perfect link to share with AI-pilled people in your life.

                                      Spoiler alert: there is a NO in big red letters on the homepage. And there's a running tally of the money spent on AI since the page loaded.

                                      @davidgerard you would love it

                                        I'm engaged in a Mastodon chat with someone like this right now. I sent them the URL, but I don't think they opened it.

                                        It's difficult to convince someone of something when their paycheck depend on them not understanding it.
