I suppose JK Rowling, regardless of her personal politics, made her actual money by writing the world's most popular children's book series. Likewise George Lucas I guess is probably a billionaire too. And Taylor Swift.

But these are examples of incredibly lucky creators of novel IPs. There's always been a handful of these people on the lower end of the upper end of economic power.

Spread responsibility thinly across as many organizations and departments within those organizations and across as many legal thresholds as you can to minimize blowback when something inevitably has to be held to account.

I would say "even busier" and "over-integrated" rather than "incomprehensible".

Not to start a fight or anything, but it almost reminds me of emacs, because it's like someone started with an idea for one kind of program, but they just kept adding and adding and adding to it. But emacs at least is free, flexible, long established, free, and quirky.

In person sure. It's essential for persuasion. But here let me just enjoy watching assholes get own goals.

Not so much because Elon is the way he is, but because the company is vital to the national interest.

AI is good for producing low-stakes outputs where validity is near irrelevant, or outputs which would have been scrutinized by qualified humans anyway.

It often requires massive amounts of energy and massive amounts of (questionably obtained) pre-existing human knowledge to produce its outputs.

This is not the medicine for curing what ails Wikipedia, but when all anyone is selling is a hammer....

JFC if there a uBlock list I can add to block most AI crap or do I have to get a new addon for that?

Says "I'm a guy IRL", so gay.
