ok, well if youd like to trade in 14billion dollars of revenue for better quality feel free.

no i cant. chatgpt is a mobile app/website, not a model or agentic harness. if you are confusing these things then sadly you have no idea whats going on.

cant take anyone seriously who thinks

is an intelligible sentence.

Elon is a social dumbass with the emotional maturity of an edgy 14 year old boy, but calling him a fraud I'd say is false and unproductive.

what you view as subtly manipulative is just having good social skills

can you imagine two years in the future and still believe this will be true? You are just dragging your feet. You will give in sooner or later, and i would suggest sooner.

business success does not scale at the speed of increased profits from layoffs.

most businesses dont actually have an infinite amount of work that has extremely high ROI. every new project at google for example has to justify the engineering spend of developing a product that has comparable margin to the ad business. Why spend 10 million a year of engineering resources on a new product that might 1. completely fail or 2. be a decent product with 20% margins when they could do nothing and keep raking in 90% margins from the ads business.

theres a lot more to the MCP spec than tool calling, and also people ignoring the fact that remote mcps exist

if your brain short-circuits at ambiguity, or you're completely incapable of understanding intent and you take everything literally, that is a negative hiring signal.

the end goal is productivity growth, aka the point of nearly every technology ever invented. The human story is about how we learn to do more with less.

now youre arguing openAI has a distinctly better product not just that they are hoping for high switching costs

if a self driving car had the exact vision of humans it would still be better because it has better reaction times. never mind the fact that humans cant actually process all the visual information in our field of view because we dont have the broad attention to be able to do that. its very obvious that you can get super human performance with just cameras.

Whether thats worth completely throwing away LiDAR is a different question, but your argument is just obviously false.

the issue is clearly attention not vision when it comes to humans. if we could actually process 100% of the visual information in our field of view, then accidents would probably go down a shit load.

yes, is there any evidence purple districts represent their constituents better? whats the different between being primaried in a 90% red district and running against someone of a different party in a swing district?

yes thats right, the rise of Hitler was probably justified because the Jews were admittedly very annoying...

I mean if I had to choose between being ok with Jews or supporting Hitler, i can understand why people would pick Hitler. The election of Hitler was really quite an indictment of the Jews.

(I am not saying Trump is Hitler)
