Behind this is a single person. I'd love to create a company that oversees an industry (but I'm too poor). What a powertrip. Get the state, laundered like, to kick in money to do ones bidding. Hope you like that Bloomberg founder, because that's who's laws you'll basically be living under when it comes to AI. I suppose thats the case with most laws though indirectly through lobbying. Lobbyists write the laws that we live under.

A better reason to read them for yourself. Dejanews / Deja.com did that basically back in the late 90s,2000s before google bought it. https://www.webdesignmuseum.or...
You'd get a results of all the usenet posts discussing the product. It worked great

Was this the turning point, steering websites from documents to basically an application? https://www.w3.org/2004/04/web...

What's that mean, instead of firing up a youtube program like how FTP, IRC etc was back in the day, basically they wanted the same thing happens from within the browser contained in the html etc?

Max consumerism, if we buy / use a product that they sell, it'll save the environment. Watching videos of how products are made (like GPUs), its an energy intensive process that in a circular way requires machines that they themselves took a lot of energy to make (heating up recycling/ore and making anything uses a lot of energy). Its hard to differentiate between products that overall will result in less damage to the environment, and the marketing dept hype that preys on people's emotion.

I haven't used this, does this AI only generate music from prompts, or can it take a song that say I make and fix the crappy rhythm or missed notes like how autotune 'corrected' singing? As a novice guitarist, it would be nice to make a song then have the computer 'touch it up' fix the goofs

Using the household model of economics, companies are just made up of individuals. At the end of the day what happens is based on the whim of a few at the top. One man's philanthopy is another man's abuse, different perspectives.

The problem is the maintenance of an imperfect market. Monopoly, barriers to entry... Some part of the process has been corrupted. What happened to Myspace? Facebook came out of nowhere. Like it was being pushed by a powerful group with more control than the public would be comfortable with if they knew. Guessing Peter Thiel, Paypal Maffia etc are what you are complaining about, not "publicly owned companies."

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the parnership program, or whatever Youtube calls it when you are monetized, at the discretion of Youtube staff? As a private company they of course have the right to do this, but as a viewer, we might be seeing someone's hand picked channels rather than what might naturally rise to the top. The reason I say this is on a niche hobby, a guy came into a forum I frequent asking some questions, he posted that he was trying to get info for his youtube videos, which he linked to. Watching them, everything was great except some of the info IMO wasn't expert but, as he was, novice just getting into the sport. But, even now, if you search for that specific thing, you get this guys video. Where he protrays himself as giving you the info to get such and such job done. Which I have to say are well produced, but the content isn't top notch. If this is the case with something I actually know about (admittingly isn't a whole lot), what else isn't top notch info? The comment sections are even worse, ever since they gave channel owners the ability to moderate. Now only glowing praise that agrees with the channel gets through

With Big tech (Google/Youtube) is closely related to Hollywood, isn't he right?

For me it would be more interesting to see someone today outdo Primer (2004), where a $7k budget netted $500k at the box office, at a time when Myspace was social media and facebook didn't yet exist. Approx. 71x return on the budget (this YT got 10x+). Maybe the news of this youtuber is more notable today because of what a stranglehold big companies have on our society these days?

Or offer a good product that stands out over AI slop. Come to think of it, isn't this a good thing for someone exceptional? In a sea of crap, an oasis of good quality should be more in contrast right?

Its people typing in domains, and going to random websites, yeah that's the problem! /sarc. More like its that the world wide web has become a transfer of executables, such that you can basically run an OS https://www.windows93.net/ just think of the possibilities of running that level of code over just a basic document like how things used to be

JP Morgan has a market cap of $800b something, because they bring in $166b in revenue and net $58b. Exxon Mobil has a market cap of not quite $500b, yet they bring in $340b a year. What did OpenAI bring in, $4b in 2024 and an expected $20b in revenue in 2025 (according to a quick search)? Where are they getting this valuation from? Imagine the Shark Tank cast evaluating this, Kevin Oleary would probably be flabbergasted.

Being spearheaded by the Biden whitehouse and the NSA, you get an idea of the makeup of the core supporters of Rust. https://www.tomshardware.com/s...

It explains authoritarianism. Inability to think for oneself due to various disruptions of the mind, so thinking has to be done by central 'experts' who know better than everyone else.

"Annoying" is the word you should be using. Dangerous would be if they have to cut your bloody pulp remains out with the jaws of life.

Meanwhile their voters parrot attack against Big Oil. What did that other article today say, each rack uses 350kw now? Wow. Why even buy energy efficiency anything around the home when Big Tech comes in with their big money, vacuums up the power like a black hole, and blows up the price for the avg person? Not just that but wrecks the environment with much of that power comes from some toxic renewable like wood chips, fossil fuel like a combined cycle natural gas plant, or some other unclean source. Or the environmental toll of all the water used to cool. Or concrete/construction for new buildings. For what, LLMs? Sure datacenters are needed, but what on earth is going on with the buildup recently? For example land going for $615m for 97 acres in New Loudoun ($6m an acre). What will they last, 3-4 years before the racks of GPUs burn themselves out and need replacements? Yet when I go to checkout at a grocery store, plastic bags are banned for the environment. Hmm.
