"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

They are spinning this as some sort of "nah, we decided we didn't want a billion dollars cause we're doing something else instead."
But as you said, that is horseshit, no one leaves a billion dollars on the table.
I bet the reason is that Disney got a peak at the actual capabilities and were like "this is garbage, why would be pay a billion dollars for something that isn't any better than the janky shit that goes on youtube?"
