Intel was never good at CPU engineering. The last 15 years or so they could only keep up by doing unsafe and insecure things and because of superior manufacturing. All these advantages are gone and they find themselves without critical capabilities. Comes from arrogance, too high profits and customer stupidity. For another case of this, look at Boeing that cannot design new airplanes anymore, just (badly) customize old designs.

I think the joke works. Just not on everybody.

Yep, that nicely sums it up.

They obviously missed nothing. They know. And it is what they wanted: Maximum engagement and who cares if some people get damaged or kill themselves. Just have some excuses prepared for that and make sure to give plenty of money to the right politicos.

They not only knew, they _designed_ it to create this problem. Because otherwise LLMs would not have looked good to the less smart majority.

That is what low-regulation capitalism looks like. The US wants that. It is even trying to force regions (EU), that have better protection of their citizens to drop those protections. Bad people at work.

Indeed. But remember that companies consist of people. And we have allowed pretty bad people to take over the economy. Obviously, there are worse people, but nobody complicit in this crap can claim to be a good person.

The story says that they did the wrong thing with wide open eyes, knowing exactly what they were doing.

Exactly. They knew there was a serious problem for users. They actually welcomed that because it increased their numbers. These are really bad people. Reminds me of the opiate crisis that the US pharma industry manufactured and welcomed just the same.

You are part of the problem. Gender identity is a spectrum. Have a look at some actual Science before disgracing yourself.

Because this story essentially said that the risks of hooking people got overruled because tests showed it hooked people nicely.

Got it: You ARE a surveillance fascist. How despicable and repulsive.

LLMs CANNOT innovate. They CANNOT have ideas. They CANNOT think. They can basically just search more efficiently.

Stop projecting things on LLMs that they are not.

And you think this "ban" will help how? All it can do is make things worse. Ever heard of the Streisand Effect? Works for kids too. And it will probably make it worse in other ways too, because now some kids will try to hide that they are active on social media. Oh, and the step towards a surveillance-society is much, much worse than what social media ever did to kids. And will continue to do.

When it is the gate to the world? I think you are underestimating kids. Also note that one kid figuring it out means the while school knows a few days later...
