Rolex watches don't have batteries. That is why they are so expensive.

Are you angry? I can't tell.

AI was just an excuse for having layoffs that they wanted anyway.

The AI was an excuse for layoffs. They fired thousands of workers.

This is signaling to the current employees that the layoffs are done, to prevent them from quitting and finding other jobs.

This indirect messaging is annoying until you compare it to the Zuck/Meta direct way of saying, "We laid off low performers" immediately hurting the job search of any former Facebook employee.

Yes, during the Obama era. If you adjust for inflation, it dropped even more in other eras.

Not practical yet.

So, one time? In the 90s?

Just another wrinkle in the strategy map.

Stealth aircraft don't yet have countermeasures.

Drone defenses are coming.

Once the drone defense gets figured out, drones are just going to be another wrinkle in the strategy map.

If you see an enemy 1000 meters out, no need to have extreme shooting accuracy. Send a drone out and take care of it.

In the fight between the VCs and the people trying to make the world a better place, the bankers won and took control.

Yeah, I remember when I had to read the entire internet to learn how to talk. I was lucky though, I had access to those resources in preschool.

Some kids weren't able to completely read millions of books in their training data until they were in fourth grade, or even fifth grade. Most of these people have Slashdot IDs between 1423380 and 1423382. It's sad, really, how they talk. The inequality. We should take up a collection pot for them.

OK and yet you show no comprehension of the subject at hand.

If you're close sourced and expect to make back trillions of investment in AI infrastructure by charging people usage fees, they're going to use your competitor's free and unencumbered product instead.

They haven't achieved entanglement yet, which is rather important.

So while it is cool, it's like a CPU that's missing the ALU (that is, not a CPU).
