    I personally hate the “thanks to AI you now can speak to your dead relatives” ones. Especially those ones which try to spin it like a personal story for the developer of the app. Oh shut up, you would sell your own mother for money. And also you are too late to jump on that bandwagon so get lost, we have enough of you leeches.

      Because you have 2/4 general terms:

      1. Rideshare
      2. Short term rentals
      3. Crypto
      4. LLM

        “Rideshare” is also the least accurate term used to dodge regulations. It is just a taxi/cab. You are paying someone to get you from one place to another. They aren’t sharing their ride, they were never going where you are going before you told them to.

      Uber/Lyft

      Airbnb

      Apart from the recently added surge pricing, what else is illegal about these 2?

        Nah it’s worse. Bitcoin actually has legitimate uses. (Yes, they are a minority of actual usage, but they exist.) NFTs are only useful for speculation, gambling and money laundering.

    What would we do without capitalist innovation? Before capitalism, nothing was invented. Look at us now!

        That is more a fronteir llm thing…

        I think quite a bit of what they are trying could with some optimization be run local thus no need to send entire context windows to big tech (sure this hypothetical model would know less trivia but in an agent system would be able to look it up)

        But of course big tech and other large orgs like hording all your data for profit.
