I remember playing around with Writesonic in my days of spammy seo tactics (some of my products weren't allowed on marketplaces & advertising platforms due to hazmat products so..). Often times I would see my own product descriptions nearly verbatim in the output.

100% creators should get compensated by ai platforms for their work.

Further, I can see a day where someone like Reddit will close off or license their data to llms. No doubt they are losing traffic right now.

Is 100+ FPE the new normal?

I had a free 3 month trial I just terminated. I deemed it too expensive.

Does Claude turn out to be what 'Quantum' was promised; crack bitcoin? This could be fun.

I think it would be interesting, once the dust has settled, to do a compare with a less expensive model (time, capital, compute) such as deepseek 4.

looks nice but, no thanks

My free trial ends this week, which i'm obviously canceling.

Ah yes the classic pump. Has a 3x parabolic move ever maintained price over extended periods of time?

My AI use is significantly down. I'm sick of following Chat GPT "advise" only to learn how egregiously incorrect it is. Don't ask for DMV advice on registering an out of state car!

It would be nice to kick google to the curb. I hope this product matures.

HIMS has known this was coming for a very long time. How much has the CEO cashed out with ? I think i saw 133 million. Sounds criminal. Where is the Occupy Wall Street movement when shit like this happens?

Too me this smells of projected cash desperation. Do people actually pay for Grok?

Possibly good for Nvidia as I have doubts OpenAI will be able to pay their massive IOUs in a timely fashion, if ever.

Did Oracle spin off Cerner yet?

I think I read 11,000 is when Saylor is completely broken, again.

Have you never used a tape measure before? How about a speed square? Yes easy comes natural for me. I like that.

Imperial’s base-12 (inches) is more factor-rich than base-10:

12 divides cleanly by 2, 3, 4, 6

10 divides cleanly only by 2 and 5

Obviously downvoters who've never used a speed square nor tape measure before.

Aren't imperial units considerably easier to calculate on the fly in construction and when squaring? They seem to come more natural for me.

can i bet on when prediction markets will collapse due to rampant insider bets?

I'll toss in my 2 cents: 1. people that have no business whatsoever now know what linux is ie sales dawgs that only touch a computer for the occasional spreadsheet. 2. 70 year old man fed up with windows, moved to linux. it looks great, its fast and responsive let's make this happen.

I'm going long net manufacturers. Good strong nets will stop these things dead in their tracks.

I use their browser called Comet for finance related research. Very nice. I use pretty much all of the main ai's, chat, deep, gem, claude - all i have found little niche use case that i'm sure will rotate at some point in an upgrade cycle. there are so many ai's i don't see the point in paying for one. I'm convinced they will need ads to survive.

excited to add mistral to the rotation!

A few years ago i forgot my id, i boarded my departure flight with my costco card and the return flight with my sams club card. both had pictures and my full name. to top it off, I was escorted right past everyone in line by security. it was great!

Theres alot of forces tugging at American "healthcare" - lawsuits, uninsured non-payment, subsidiation of 3rd world drugs, heterogeneous population, over eating, under exercise... usa practices reactive medicine. and maybe part of that is due to hectic modern life, but it certainly adds to the cost, time and money, that could potentially be avoided or at least reduced in a more preventive, educated system.

that being said, one can certainly find cheaper insurance (a policy to limit liability) if one knew where to look.

for instance a self employed single male, 27, queens new york, healthy non smoker, can have a national network $300 deductible, aca qualified policy, $329 a month.

I'd like to see them pull all support for Bitcoin and crypto related "companies". As we all know, bitcoin's only use cases are scamming little old lady's out of thousands of dollars at atm's and speculation. It is not an investment vehicle, it is not a currency.

If someone at the NWF is reading this, please take this into consideration. Let's start to take action against the fraud and grift, and try to make humanity a little better, one step at a time.

Thank you.

Yeah looks like the data proves im right. how much you want to wager again?

shitty little mena countries suck.

I was surprised to see a children's game is publicly traded. So there is no real incentive to protect children, just max extract as much money as possible.

Yes, X is the new /pol.

How many of these accounts are Russian? I bet hardly any. My money is mostly from a small country in the middle east.

I'm getting ai fatigue. It's ok to rewrite quick emails that i'm having brain farts on but anything deep it just sucks. I certainly can't see paying for it.

In 2001 we used Erdas Imagine to do this type of work. It required humans to train the software using heads-up digitizing. Dare I say machine learning on Pentium workstations?

edit, looks like they have ai too now. could be neat to play with after how long has it been. jeesh.

I'm on Macos and Chrome has a Gemini button that functions very similar to Grox on X.. It's useful and unobtrusive.

I also use Comet for specific financial research, also very useful.

I have edge with Copilot. Never use it. Microsoft is gross.

I have an invite to something called Strawberry but at this point, I'm tapped out. Sorry OpenAI, you're late to the game for me.

Maybe next week.
