“But AI is cheap!”

It’s not, it has horrendous hardware, server housing and water and power requirements; it’s just that VCs are financing it now so you get in on the hype and later they will charge you rent and it will cost you way more—with inferior results—than, you know, hiring the writers and artists it’s stealing from, but those will be gone by then.

For anyone who needs to hear this: it's OK to be wrong about things. You can have a change of opinion or beliefs after hearing more information and facts.

That's not a personal failure.
It's personal growth.

No, generative AI will not give you personalized movies from a book. Not in 5 years, not in ever.

Generative AI is complete and utter shit. More computing resources will just generate more shit faster.

I don’t understand how these people aren’t laughed off the Internet, it’s such a transparent bullshit hype.
