ChatGPT isn't anywhere near market dominance where they can rely on brand power alone. Users don't care what AI thing they use. Anyone is capable of eating their lunch and we're already seeing the beginning of diversification in AI product use.
Docs a neat funnel into Google's actual business which us advertising. OpenAI is calling AI its business. Good luck with trying to sell ads when it's competing against Google and others more entrenched in the market with a product anyone can replicate. That's what is meant by they have no moat
Tell that Microsoft's Office suite. It's a juggernaut in the corporate space (usually legacy companies), but everyone else is using google docs. Because it's free. It's not as good, but it's goos enough. That's OpenAI in the near future, except they don't have multiple revenue streams to on fall on
Nothing beats free. That's why google docs ate Microsoft Word's lunch. Google didn't bother selling Word and anyone who hangs onto the idea of selling an AI model is not going to be a business in the long run. It's too easy to spin these things up. The open models are good enough for most.
All you need is one guy in your city willing to charge 10% less and it's gone. There is no moat anything can pop up. AI coops. Hobbiests who offer it for fun. Companies rolling their own internally. If it's something you only need a little know-how to do, it's not a viable business.
It probably would have been effective if we didn't kneecap the electoral college by capping it. In the original version, a lot of states would have a loud voice and it would be way harder to bribe enough reps to get your way

lmao The Sun has a livestream of the “LA riots” on YouTube and when you click on it it’s a bunch of troops standing around doing nothing

you can literally hear birds singing in the background

what a time to be alive
6yo is just very unhinged today I see. "I wish you were a sight words, but you're not. You're just a human"

She's ready for the end of the school year I see

This is in my local Kroger in GA
I have a bag of rare to find chips that I hid away. Every non-fast day I forget to take them from their hiding spot and eat them
This is like the joke about the struggle of making a bear proof container when there's a lot of overlap between smart bears and dumb humans.

Especially with learners, people are going to be crossing the AI zone before entering mastery and that is okay and desired.
Unfortunately it's up to all of us to vet the list creator. A block list is not necessarily for anyone besides the creator and everyone has different opinions about what constitutes varies kinds of 'phobes.
I'm 36/12 fasting and I'm not sure what this says about me that my mouth keeps longing for oatmeal as I tend towards bed. I always break my fast with oatmeal which has some sugar in it and I guess my body noticed lol
Just running the numbers for my county which I know is higher than the national average, it seems like it's local median income.
Explaining supplychain shortage to my 6yo has been one of the more depressing parts of parenting.
I drove 45mins away to handle some stuff. A Cheesecake Factory was nearby, so me and 6yo had lunch there. The waiter sat some people next to us after we'd ordered. It was a friend who lived far away too. What are the chances?
6yo is certain that stickers that go on cars are not called bumper stickers. So certain that she has declared that she's going to record herself asking various people what it's called and they're going to say car sticker.

Good luck with that kid 🤣
Me, every night before bed: I won't stay up reading the news
Me, 10 mins later: damn it

God I wish the world was boring again
6yo: I didn't want to you. It was really awful and bad, but... I broke a pencil at school 😥

I don't know why she needed to come clean about this today 🤣
I definitely did not expect to have a discussion about the family you're given and rhe family you choose with 6yo last night. I didn't know she was having since inner turmoil and confusion.

Anyway she has claimed one of my good friends as an auntie lol
I accidentally left my wallet at home and I had to use up all my emergency cash at the restaurant 😭

It was so incredibly lucky I just recently decided to carry more than $20
