Fuck AI

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?"

I would like to argue that when a company reaches a certain equity value, it should not have the option of closed books. if the government is going to treat a company as "too big to fail", then it's "too big for privacy"

It sounded remarkably stupid when it was announced.

wait, the artists at disney saw the advanced ai video editor and said "i can do it faster and cheaper on my own" and could convince the C-suite?

that's gotta be a real shitty AI

not even hegseth can dish out enough money to openai for them to avoid imploding

Defense spending goes brrrr

Slowly deflating would arguably be the better option.
