Musk famously co-founded openAI (the team behind chatGPT) in 2015 and left its board in 2018

Since that time he founded a new venture, xAI with a team of former Google and Microsoft AI experts

In order to showcase that he is really obsessed with the letter x, he has named the new company xAI (cf. SpaceX and X)

The AI space is becoming increasingly crowded and it remains to be seen whether this new product can really take off - can it compete with bingAI and bard?

why is he obsessed with the CHI letter?
Because way back when he was trying to make Paypal, he wanted it to be "x.com" and be a constantly evolving website, but everyone else was like, "that's stupid" and didn't do it. So for the past 20+ years coupled with being high on ketamine, he decided to make his obsession a reality.

But why x.com?

The answer is he is childish and it's in the word sex

Dude literally named his cars models S Ξ X and Y

In a sane and logical world, Musk would be a lolcow. Instead, we are layers deep in a post-Harambe timeline where someone like him is taken seriously. You humans ruined the timeline by killing that ape

Elon's fanbase are a bunch of leftist brainlets.
SylverReZ is having some trouble with his memory, he thinks it's still 2020, Elon Musk is still a green power pushing hippy, and SilverReZ is still a Republican.

Dementia is cruel.

There are instances where he manipulates the platform known as Twitter and constantly criticizes others for their takes about him, many only care about what he does instead of focusing on his negativity.

AI is this decade's streaming. A lot of other companies will join and try to pitch their own AI solutions, and at some point there will be a "golden age" of generative AI. But very much like streaming, only one or two companies will last at the end due to rising costs of operation/low return of investments; general public and business just settling on one big AI solution and they stick to that; government regulations; companies abandoning AI to pursue a new FAD.

Some models are open source and can be used by anyone, smart business will create their own models that fit their brand. I imagine Disney would train their own AI instead of hiring some AI firm instead. And if Windows 12 does come with generative AI tools, I wonder what's left to xAI and other aspiring AI firms besides being hired to mass produce and promote fake news.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
