The only acceptable use case for AI is to decensor JAV.. and maybe to find ways to cure cancer. But mostly the JAV thing.
Definetly decensor pron.
Alternatively finally convince japan to remove their silly censoring laws so we can finally enjoy the good stuff.

Great quotes from Asmongold:
“Winning looks a lot like losing…until you win” 😂😂😂 Hilarious but sooo true.
Thing is at least the right let free speech, the left doesnt allow free speech. Do you really want an echo chamber of people talking the same thing everyday, or do you want shadow bans, and only allow one side to talk? Once X is taken over by the left again, it will go back to the same old twitter were people talk about 1st world problems everyday, and do nothing about how to fix it.
The main difference between a fool and a hero often is: One of them failed.

@@cyber_cryptoNah, my dad is smarter
Threads didn’t have basic functionality stuff. It should’ve had everything Twitter had from day one of release. Seems like a rushed release and the timing wasn’t advantageous enough to not have those things.
It wasn't available in Europe at all kek
And it lost the main focus again, not chronological but by popularity and showing you things you don’t care for.. tahts hy so many people left facebook..
The early access curse
@coconutanddog guess threads only failed cause they didn't get celebrities to have exclusive social media contracts.
"Why would you go out of your way to be censored" Absolutely hit the nail on the head, but most of the people that move to these highly censored platforms go to them because they like other people to be censored lol
I mean, that's what makes it so funny. They hate you for having a different opinion, but when it swings against them, hooo boy. There was a woman whose name I forgot, that was shitting on twitter for allowing certain people to express opinions and moved to threats. Within a week, she got banned a few times and had content removed. She hated it and started crying about how it's not "fair" for getting removed without notice. She did the same to others though... XD
@Zukoiu people love exercising power until the hammer of power swings against them. The saddest part is they genuinely don't understand that they did the same exact thing to many others beforehand. They are that self centered.
@@lgiprodigy7624are we talking about someone upset twitter is giving a platform to nazis and shit? Lol. That’s the self centered individual at play? Okay.
@@joelmcknight9995everybody is calling everyone they have arguments with online a Nazi these days. That word has lost its meaning.
The biggest problem with gov't regulation is that it's written by either geriatrics who don't understand what it is, or the companies to be regulated who add in barriers to entry. That limits innovation and competition. Happened with Walmart. Will probably happen with Big Tech.
hlaf of the problem with that in the US is the policy makers arent barred from owning stocks in the companies they regulate.. Insider trading is rampant
The most interesting thing to me is how hard the corporate media pushed Threads and crapped on Twitter/X. It shows you how little power they actually have.
100%
Mainstream media is basically irrelevant at this point.
They do have power to draw attention to something, which they succeeded in this case, but then it's up to the app in question to retain attention, which it failed.
Media.. I have to imagine.. is just a multiplier.
threads is pretty cool, reminds me of how cool google+ used to be back in 2010-2011, found my tech circle of folks to engage with. xitter will be sold for maybe a billion back to Jack in few years

Not having a dvd player killed it. But it was a solid console.
Asmongold described the big tech lifecycle pretty well at 31:20. The next big thing always comes from startups because they try to create value for users. Once a company goes big, their "innovation" focuses on getting investors interested, and investors are not at all innovative. They always chase what they believe to be the biggest moneymaker. The next big thing is never a moneymaker until it is. Big tech is trying to create moneymakers, not value.
It's one of the reasons I trust Valve currently. They don't have the incentive of investors to poison their vision and turn their backs on the consumer. The moment they become publicly traded is the moment I will stop trusting them.
Yes. I am reminded of Xerox.
The guy that invented the Photocopy process tried to sell his invention to big companies like General Electric, Polaroid or IBM and they all said no. Why? It worked but making the machines would be an investment which they were not sure would pay off.
The guy then went to a very small and struggling company that was on the verge of bankrupcy, Xerox. They bought the patents, started production of the first photocopy machines and became a giant multinational company in just a couple of years.
Giant tech companies don't take risks. Small ones do.
The first thing I can see AI being a big thing is in Gaming. Think RPGs where all the NPCs start out with a base script of dialogue and actions that is of course game world related. As you play, the NPCs evolve due to your presence in the game and your actions and the interaction with other NPCs daily routines. No more hearing "I use to be adventurer like you until I took an arrow to the knee." for the billionth time.
There's actually a chatgpt ai follower for skyrim
@@SparkPaladin Yup I've seen the AI companion videos. There's also a Laura Croft AI for the first Tomb Raider Game. I think I heard that AI is used for the NPCs in Starfield. So we are getting there.
you would need like 3 computers to run a game like that
@@1999evocurrently. If you take most modern tech and bring it back 10+ years ago it would be nearly impossible to do back then. But as time went on it became easier and cheaper, so sooner or later self learning AI will be available in many open world RPGs.
I see it in game development for environment building. You could build a house with barely a dozen of prompts; medieval style, 2 stories, old, brick walls, big fireplace, small garden outside... etc. Then the program would just spawn you a house and you can write a couple of new prompts for adjustment. Now you built a house in 25 seconds. You could built a city in a day with 1 dev.
People hate the industries they interact with the most because the industry leaders know that the people need to interact with them. There is no incentive to improve customer experience when you're never short on customers.
Meta was so clearly doomed to fail from the start to anyone in-touch with reality. I still can't believe so many companies were sinking multimillions of dollars into it with any expectations other than burning money
There was nothing wrong with the basic concept, but the execution and imagination were poor for the amount of money that was poured into it. And a lot of untalented developers/"artists" wasted the money.
The biggest reason is VR tech being so expensive and uncomfortable for the majority of people tbh.
It also tried to appeal to gamers but also at the same time to normies. Like the whole scanning your face to make an avatar in your image, gamers heavily dislike that and memed on it, while normies didn't find the appeal of jumping into VR when they can just facetime/video call and do other stuff while they talk with friends and family.
As asmon said, there was no added value, and the reason people didn't jump from VRC to Meta is because of all the rules and moderation that meant.
Seriously, try Half-Life Alyx or some other great VR experience and you will quickly realize why people invest in it. VR experiences has ruined flat screen gaming for me. Nothing is as immersive engaging and interactive as VR at the moment. The problem with VR atm is that to have a great experience, you have to spend A LOT of money.

Slack didn't start as a game. It started as an internal communication tool the company used while developing a game.

It keeps being fascinating to me, how Asmon just sits in his room and is throwing out either some of the most intelligent and/or funniest comments about random world stuff. I just don't understand how he does it, but it's very refreshing to me, compared to many other CZcamsrs. Thank you Asmon :)
everything seems great and intelligent until he got paid.
he will openly act stupid on paid advertisement.
This is just common sense, it seems intelligent but it’s not simply intelligence it’s just simple critical thinking which seems to be slowly declining making it seem otherworldly.
It's also why I watch him. I am almost twice his age and have a doctoral education. But Asmongold is literally like an ancient gymnosphist wise man sitting in his cave half-naked, yet Alexander the Great himself stopped his marching army to listen to him speak.
Commenters who think it's easy for Asmon to do what he does are ignorant. I consider myself an excellent speaker, yet I cannot just go off the cuff for an hour straight, and yet generate insights more enthralling than all the legacy network anchors put together.
@jaleshere
True, but its a more than just that.
He's really good at seeing things from others' perspectives, and taking that into forming his opinions.
Most people nowadays have developed some minor form of narcissism, so to have someone who can see things from someone else's perspective seems like a superpower now.
AI could basically be seen as a "Magnifying Lens".
Right now, all the companies are trying to show bigger lenses, harder lenses, funky-shape lenses and stronger magnifiers.
Meanwhile the person who uses them to make the "Microscope" will revolutionize the world.
We're just waiting for the right person to come up with what the "Microscope" of AI could be.
What about as a utility? There was a guy who made a Ray tracing camera which makes images by shooting particles back and forth. Maybe ots not a real thing. What if there's a way to have it based on FPS and maybe there's a way for the person to see again based on Ray tracing?
Though thats more of a hypothesis
I mean like people who are not only blind but maybe there's better way but to those who lost the physical eyes
@@oceanbrown7159 It's a Metaphor. I don't mean AI is literally a "Magnifying Glass".
It just means that at this moment in time (as of 29.12.2023) - the current iteration of AI that we have is a "component" of something big in the future.
Right now, all the companies are making "shinier" components - but they are still just components. Toys at best.
Somewhere in the future - someone will notice "hey, you know that LLM tech used for ChatGPT? What if we..." and they will invent something majestically huge.
It won't come from these Big Tech AI Bros though - cause they are too busy figuring out how this thing can make money instead of trying to figure out "how can this benefit people".
Eventually someone will figure it out.

Zuckerberg is trying to make the metaverse for AI waifu reasons, probably.
If it made a good waifu than weeb gonna buy it. But all I know recently all they do just add leg to Avatar lol
@@ghostering8they did add legs, also they have horizon world's running on mobile/web, they are working on a virtual keyboard that you can use on any desk and achieve 100+ wpm, increased the level of hand tracking so it's very close to controller tracking (in the right lighting), and it looks like we will have automatic scene recognition and understanding on quest 3 when it comes out next month. At least that's what they have done of the note in the last few weeks.
I agree with Asmon regarding the David and Goliath take when it comes to Twitter. I think Zuckerberg was counting on peoples irritation with Elon Musk to be enough to take all of his user base and at the end of the day, that’s not enough. Threads isn’t a good enough product on its own yet.
You pretty much need to make something as good as Twitter before Elon Musk came along in my opinion and Threads seemed like it was just thrown together at the last second in an attempt to steal Twitter's userbase.
Twitter was a total trashfire before Elon Musk.
Issue with meta is the barrier to entry. Several hundred dollars as apposed to just signing up. But itll get to where the hardware is basically gave away to fund micros

Considering the current birth rates? Somehow worse.
Lisa the Painful
@@corystarkiller You realize birthrates going down isn't entirely a bad thing. Only a limited about of space and resources to maintain people. Also doesn't say much about relationships, what about the people whom don't want children? Not to mention the countless other factors that could be happening, like people around the world having less children be it the state of the economy, or having less children in general because half of your kids don't die before hitting 2. Looking at birthrates is only a menial factor in considering how relationships are.
@@benjaminasmus3980 Birthrates going down is an absolute catastrophe for modern civilization. Everything that increases standard of living depends on there being more young people working than old people consuming. That's why mass migration is being used as a bandaid in all the developed countries.
He's got a point on the whole term limits and corruption thing at the end there. We already have a mechanism to fix corruption and we don't use it. If someone is corrupt, don't vote them back in.
Corrupt government is largely the fault of the voters just being stupid and picking 'their candidate' no matter how corrupt they are.
Almost sounds like most democracitc systems are flawed and dont work the way they should.
They are all corrupt, though, they blacklist anybody that isn't corrupt with faux outrage and smears, because they worry that they won't be able to control them. They are all buddies and they hold power by pitting citizens against each other.
I'd argue there's a lot of money involved to pay anyone who gets into office so no matter what we're getting someone corrupt.
I still think the large majority of people over retirement age are not fit to serve and are fairly corrupt as is though.
What we need is a system that prevents money from exchanging for government positions. Lobbying should be illegal in every capacity. I think we'll find a lot less corruption when the candidates we elect aren't looking for money.
Yeah but voting doesn't even matter, obviously.
@@BRBingeDrinker Any and all outside revenue streams for public officials, even those in the running for election, should be illegal and on the level of treason for both the entity paying and the one receiving.
"regulatory capture" is why im skeptical of government regulation
Indeed. I Disagree on Conservatives stopped calling for regulation after Elon bought Twitter. Well, for many, sure. But as far as I've seen, conservatives, including myself, just gave up. Elon showed us where censorship was coming from...K0vernm3nt, so there's literally no point in calling for regulations anymore.
Jesh can't even say government cuz it gets hidden -_-
Anyway, Elon didn't buy this platform, and although some things are allowed now (probably so people stop complaining) this platform censors far more than ever, yet people hardly complain anymore either.
I hardly comment now, because I have to check every single comment on another browser and change it until it shows up. It's ridiculous. We are completely at their mercy...
Well, I had to rewrite what shoulda been 1 comment close to 30 times sighs... not allowed to express myself is utterly depressing
Threads should've had more features and what's shameful is they have the infrastructure to do it in a day by its been a few months and things like direct messaging is not even implemented yet.
It's probably also due to lack of workers and irresponsible team leaders of the groups they have. These corporation idiots instantly jumped the gun to want to pay less people. But they are too greedy and stupid to look into the technicalities.
It's similar to them wanting to use A.I. art and skip the artist. What makes a good animated movie isn't how it looks. Even if that's a factor, it's the imagination of the mind behind it.
and that's what all these copycats don't get..
to get the users who are on X platform you need to have all of those features day one and then some more just to get people to jump over, nobody cares about oh it's coming next month reasons, nope pepople stay with the thing they're with untio changes or.....OR perhaps the company making the copycat platform is seen as a joke?? in which case all efforts are for nothing
example, tik tok is not an alternative or an attraction to me thus YT and their shorts don't interest m, I like the longer videos FFS, i've sat through 6 hour horror story videos.....spent the whole day listening to just one story? that's dedication man.....
or another when facehook came on I didn't jump over cus i never liked the site that much, I liked Myspace but as Myspace got worse I quit altogether
closed my account out and walked away I never even joined the bird....ugh very not my thing even now as X or whatever, I figured Elon would call it 420 or MJ or something lol
The problems are not the regulations. The problem is that when gov makes regulations they always over extend, abuse and and fuck things up. As for the social media, the problem are not the lack of regulations, ofcourse things are regulated, the problem is that the regulations are bad. Which brings me to the previous point.
The EU commission is singlehandedly proving your point wrong, at least from a theoretical point of "could this in theory function or not?". And that's a multinational collaborative effort that has to reach agreements. Imagine what just a single nation like the US could accomplish.
The main risk here is more so that the US political scene is quite frankly at rock bottom and is incapable of being trusted with any major responsibility outside of paramount national security risks.
Everything else has become politized but the political scene is constructed in such a way that it 9/10 times is the less fit candidates that get the spotlight.
@@Real_MisterSirUS political scene is like watching two monkeys throw mud at each other while saying that the other one did it first. Its hilarious to watch, but absolutely nothing gets dones outside of "get food, eat, and sleep".
US Government is also the exact reason why term limits should be applied to everyone. You have congress people working for decades while voting only for the things that supports the people giving them money. Having new people ensures that you don't have 20 70+ year olds deciding what the policy for the hot new thing should be.
@@Real_MisterSir I agree with what you're saying, but at the end, nearly everything you encounter in your life has something to do with politics. How can we make something poltical when by virtue of living in the USA nearly everything you see has something to with it, if not made by it, then can be controlled by it? This is like saying modern/historical war games aren't wholeheartly poltical, when the wars they base their games off of happened because of poltics. In fact most military actions are done for the poltical spin. Welcome to reality, the government has found a way to sink into your life everyday.
@@benjaminasmus3980 The first element is to find ways to influence the root - which is not politics, but people. Look how BLM took off, how cancel culture has risen, how distribution of power shifts if enough people are enabled to rally under a common cause, regardless of what the political scene may say about it. Look at how little it actually took to tip the scales of a giant like Bud Light and associated brands..
The issue here is to make people actually care, because most people don't - unless they personally identify with the issue at hand already. So the way to start, is to talk about the issue in a way that is actually relatable to the common person - to first capture their curiosity, and then when you have it you speak to their emotions.
Politics in the US has grown to exploit the common society's indifference towards division - and its tolerance towards being presented with artificially limited options as if that's just how the world works. The duality is crazy, how everyone keeps advocating for a small government and not to trust politicians with your money, to keep taxes to yourself, etc - but at the same time people entirely succumb to the concept of binary options when presented by those very same political entities that they're supposed to fight back against.
Just ask yourself, why is it that in a country of over 300 million people, only 2 are actually legible to run for presidency? And ask yourself, out of these 300 million people, are those two chosen spokesmen actually the most fit candidates in the first place? Why is nobody rallying against this dystopian world construct? Why is nobody even debating it? We have 100 new internet talkshows arising every single day, but nobody seems to want to tackle the elephant in the room.. So the option of being the first to do so, is still out there, up for grabs. You could be that one to grab it - or your friend, or your neighbor. Anyone really, who just has a somewhat fair idea of the concept of binary politics in general, and their destructive natural byproduct of civil division.
@@Real_MisterSir "The EU commission is singlehandedly proving your point wrong" LOL
Asmon being against term limits shows his severe lack of knowledge when it comes to the framers of the constitution.
Asmon doesn't know how to feed himself. Being politically savvy is an unrealistic expectation.
What do you think terms limits would genuinely solve? Without taking the money out of politics you’ll just get new corrupt faces every few elections instead of the same one. It only makes it marginally easier for non-corrupt people to win because they can potentially not face an incumbent.

Yep. I work in the healthcare IT industry and there are already shipping AI tools that helps doctors/nurses get through all their non-clinical documentation so they have more time for patients. One example is generating a draft to respond to a patient message. The AI has even been rated by users as more empathetic than an overworked doctor! AI has tons of similar uses, but it's not going to go right away as a business to consumer tool, but as a business to business tool where customers benefit indirectly.

The reason the metaverse isn't happening is because the hardware isn't advanced enough for the vague vision they have. They jumped the gun. They should have done this in 2028 instead.
this exactly, these companies are trying to move really really fast, and you know what I respect. the more resources they pour into it the faster it will mature. if they all just gave up nothing will grow because it's not the time yet.
I don't think we'll even make that much advancement on VR by 2028 😅
Also making VR not use PCs for 90% of the things being developed nowadays took away any kind of power they previously had. Now they are just glorified smartphones you put up to your eyes. Is it more practical? Yes. Is the experience worse? Also yes.
You mean 2068. Hardware limitations are quickly becoming a reality. And I mean like data storage and cooling. We'll have to overcome that before considering a metaverse.
More like 2050 as long has the metaverse needs an heavy vr it will never be popular.
Something I have not seen talked about with AI, big tech, or just tech in general is Universities. They have been looking into AI for decades and decades. Grants from government and private areas. Talking about early AI, not AI but just go witth it for now. The super computers used to play chess against Chess Masters. Deep Blue started development in 1985. In my opinion Universities can be thought of as tech companies due to the research they do in countless fields of study.
When you understand why one good driver being able to drive safely over the speed limit is not a counter-argument to why speed limits are needed, you will understand why one good politician with a lot of terms under their belt is not an argument against the existence of term limits.
When you put it into the perspective of video games, I really do hink when the company gets in on the ground floor matters. For example Shash clones have recently been crashing and burning, not due to a complete lack of quality, but due to the fact that the thing they're trying to compete with, has had so much more time to experiment, and do everything they're attempting to do, far better.
It was the fact that their was market shortage and the people who built that demand for YEARS became second priority over just money. It was a loyalty test
Tbf about the ebay v amazon online marketplace debate (or at least how it is on the German version of those platforms): by now ebay has a way better search function, properly working categories, useful filters and _way_ better prices than amazon (especially the prices thing has become consistently worse for amazon over the last few years), but they keep their customers because those are too lazy to try something else
@@Tracker947 I don't know if thats a German thing but here the yardsale ebay is actually its own website and app called eBay Kleinanzeigen (~small listings) while the original eBay is 90% more or less professional online sellers
@@Tracker947as someone who is often selling stuff on Ebay I have to agree.
Ebay is like a yard sale, but like a bad one. You have no way to look or test the stuff before buying. Probably 1/3 of everything I buy used on Ebay, especially older stuff has some sort of defect which was not declared as such. But I do not have the nerves to fight with the people so I usually just accept it and try to fix it myself.
Additionally Ebay tries so screw you over as a seller. I recently got an Email from them to turn my account into a "business account" or otherwise they will semi ban my account. Why they are doing that? Well. They earn much more money from business accounts so they push you into it when they see the opportunity.
I would love to have an alternative to Ebay, since the many flaws of it do be frustrating a lot of times. But the only alternative that exists are *actual* yard sales and for the rather specific stuff I sell this isn't a realistic option for me.
IMO EBay hasn’t gotten any better in years in terms of search narrowing, it’s just that Amazon is absolutely flooded with garbage now.

That is a great take from Asmon, these companies don't have a good canvas for AI at present and I know this from my own experience of being on these AI platforms and wondering wtf to actually do once on there. I am sure in the future this will just be common sense and it will be hard to remember times where it was like this but for now this is absolutely an issue imo
Chances are, they're collecting data on the user's inputs to see what they can sell in the future. Matter of fact, I know a couple: checking text structure, finding errors in code, making homework and corporate emails.

Has Asmongold ever started a voice only podcast? He'd do so well as a radio personality, seriously. No dig on him I think he's got the skillset to hold court in tense interviews

Then get sucked into a reputation spiral for having an opinion.
When you get above a certain iq, things start getting repetitive. It’s a bit different when your experience and advice is what people seek.
I’m not sure the internet will be forgiving during his learning curve for interviews but he’s prepared and his audience would be a vital support and something that would likely become part it.
In a way he is beginning to have an interview format as he interacts with real time conversations. And takes us on these mental adventures in unexpected ways and thought processes.
Just would hate to see him exposed to more trolls that may exploit emotions and a system of oppression triggered by keywords and phrases and a lemming army that doesn’t question orders…
I want to see him do well and succeed and be a rational voice in the gaming scene. Something that’s badly needing player representation and a voice.

Just noticed you broke 2mil subscribers. Congratulations 🎊
You will find that the biggest have the best quality assurance systems and those that either aren't the biggest or were at one time the biggest, either let their quality assurance drop or just never reached the level of quality assurance that the big ones have.
KI is already being used in Norway to screen for bone fracture and results in answer within 5 minutes. Also tests have shown that using KI to go over screening of breast cancer have improved the margin of error by a significant amount.
i am sorry, but what is KI?
Bro young people dgaf about BIG TECH. We can’t AFFORD FOOD
I want an AI supported software to annihilate cheating in gaming. Its still mindboggling to me that there are actual f*ckers who think their wins mean jacksh!t when using cheats. Why bother playing in the first place?
It's merely an attempt at control, while at the same time being so bored and disinterested that they don't care enough to uphold self integrity. Imagine feeling it's always your team mates holding you back, and even if you feel like you play good enough and deserve to improve, it feels unreasonable that you should fight harder without getting an equal reward. So they lock on the cheats relative to the effort they believe is demanded, and see it as an equalizer towards what they preemptively assume they deserve.
When you take this further, the next question becomes "I could easily be better than these people if I actually tried, but I'm too bored to give so much of myself but I still feel like I deserve recognition for my potential", so they lock on cheats to get results they believe they deserve if they put in the effort - because to them the mere presence of potential is enough to warrant a sense of being rewarded for their potential. Like someone who made an amazing song, and then just collect royalties the rest of their life without lifting a finger. The only difference for the cheater is that they haven't actually proved they're amazing, but their self centered idea of dormant potential within them makes them feel like they already deserve the reward that in their mind they could easily achieve if just they put in the effort, but they're again probably too bored or detached from the idea of grind to even consider striving for that reward. So they click the button and get the reward and "instant" gratification. In their mind they are already a grandmaster in terms of their potential, it's just a matter of whether they want to spend 1000 hours grinding in game to prove they can achieve that rank, or on the other hand just click this button that skips it all for them, and they can reap the reward of achieving their goals instantly. Major problem with instant gratification. It's the same as people who buy level boosts - literally just slotting in a coin to get a reward now, rather than putting in hours of work to get the same outcome (in their mind). Only difference here is they ruin other people's experience in the process, but they're oblivious to it because to them, this is the natural thing to do if you want something, and to them it's just everyone else choosing not to cheat. They see it as a choice for everyone, rather than a major moral conflict.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
There are softwares like this people just don’t use them, it even works against ai cheats
@@SCRKT007That is only because they are comfortable. When reality or the real world really starts to burn and they are threatened I'm sure they will want order again real fast.
My father's generation I think would have hated these people.
the senate hearing was really good actually
14:45 only THREE! multibillion dollar companies?
...only 3? "Those are rookie numbers!!!"
always on point. like hot knife thru butter... love from SG
I didn't even know Threads existed until today
Reminds me of the big short or the stock market crash 2007/2008 "the housing market has always been stable" yeah..
User value --> "Winning looks a lot like losing... until you win"
Its crazy people still think meta spent all that money on the metaverse just because the verge said so (who have no idea what they were writing about). That figure of around 20 billion spent on the metaverse is the actually the total expenditure of reality labs which incompases all of their game studios, their research into vr, ar and smart devices. It may also include the ai expenditure which is more than any other company on the planet but i font really know.
@31:08 what game is asmon comparing overwatch to, I don’t get the spelling
Winning looks a lot like losing... until you win. - your boi
It indeed about quality and expectations. You can have 100 videos about 100 topics that are well explained and rich in content and enlightened. When more videos on the same topic are posted. Is it a series that needs to be followed in a sequence? Or should every video be that good that if a random video (for example about Diablo 4) is viewed by a person that liked videos on other topics (the voice and narration) should grab their attention.
If you want to keep every one's attention, how can viewers that didn't followed a serie distinguish the different between an enlightened video or a serie?
Keep on rocky with steady feet on the ground as usual!
OpenAI is pretty sick IMO.
I played with it a little bit with simple things like: "Make a simple index.html file, which shows the current ip and the current date" and it was pretty clean and it explained me which code block does what. Than I asked it to add the time, which he did but in PM/AM format which I let him change to 24h format, than also add IPv6 to the index file, its pretty neat tool, but can get dangerous if its get feed with harmful sources, manipulating it knowledge.
Agree.. you don’t enter a space with nothing new to offer.. thats the problem with threads. There really is no purpose.
Being First is nice but being better matters more to users in the long run
"I know no one here probably has a job, that's why we're watching this at two in the morning"- I work until 10pm everyday, 10:30pm-6am is my gaming time lmao
Term limits are necessarily to prevent career politicians
Really good video, always love Asmon's opinion and his perspectives. Makes watching videos on my own feel lonely. Though, the dude's video he's commenting on had a real annoying monotone voice (side note).
The smaller the team, the more personal they can be with their playbase. That can be both good and bad.
funny how he talks about the republicans like the democrats weren’t doing exactly as he described before elon took over lmao. good one though
Literally why Musk bought Twatter, we were all sick of being censored for practically no reason
gmail is not a good mail program if you are looking for protection or better yet privacy.
28:20 If anything its better if big companies burn a bunch of money because that means its going back into circulation to pay people.
agreed. money is the life blood of progress in many ways and it needs to circulate
@@jeffreypeterson2That is one of the most stunningly ignorant statements I have ever read. Money is fungible, for one thing. Secondly, these corporations do not have Scrooge McDuck vaults full of pieces of paper.
Right now, assuming you have anything above zero dollars in a bank, credit union, etc, your money is being “circulated”. The bank takes your deposits and then lends it to other people. These people may be building a house, expanding a business, buying a piece of machinery, or buying a car.
Yah but instead of the money being burned it could've went to them actually paying their taxes and not getting a write off
No it's not. Have you ever thought about why these things cost this much?
@@TheSpicyLeg i aint listening to some dude named spicy leg
the biggest miss with Meta was the expectancy of how many people would get VR and how many people that already had it, as it in no way would balance out the amount of investment they put into it
AI covers of popular music has to be the best use so far. Plankton just puts so much passion in ever lyric.
Someone needs to make a game like wow that is run by AI who controlls all the NPCs and quests.
Threads is a cheap bet and there really wasn't any reason not to make it. Especially if there's even a 0.5% chance of Twitter failing entirely.
It's selling point was overzealous one sided moderation. It never stood a chance.
@@AimbotFreak this is just dumb, Threads appeal was to liberals as they dislike Elon Musk, simple as that.
@@ethan6627 Nah, that's you living in a bubble. Liberals were as censored on twitter as conservatives. The people whining about it are the progressive garbage and legacy check marks which people clowned on for years.
Google has a cellphone company too.
I work on an e-Bay OpenAI project. It's outsourcing where we teach thr AI to differentiate between certain products. It's easy fun work from home 😊
The worst are the people on twitter that have Threads in their username or Deleted twitter.. while continuing to use twitter.
I see the current iteration of AI as being best used for search algorithms. As the internet got larger and more content, it has become almost impossible to find what you need without the search engine placing their thumb on the scale. Now with AI language models, the first thing you get at the top of each search (ie: Google) is a snippet of what the most visited sites have to say on a given topic. AI language models have allowed us to search the internet again and hopefully it will get better but I expect the same basic issue to reappear down the line.
36:58 my god does that robot look strikingly like that olsen girl that plays scarlet witch in the mcu, but ofc uncannily so
43:30 Historic example was pennicellin. Dude discovered it by accident.
Almost every single company having a negative sentiment in public is a sign you live in a system vulnerable to regulatory capture, where consumers and vendors aren't as important as buying off the representatives that govern them for favor and special treatment. When this is the standard of every type of industry, competition goes down and monopolies form. Reform campaign financing and subsidize the little guys to have a shot among the wealthy donors and their candidates! Move away from fptp-voting and toward better representation!
I've only use threads for for two backlinks
Proposing regulation for big tech is not an unpopular stance imo. Maybe it is in the states. But in EU most people (obviously not all) are for sure in favour of regulation.
Could divide it further and say its one half of the states that doesn't want regulation for big tech.
laptop mic documentary
Threads is the twitter killer, ahahahaha
Hi conservative here. No we should still regulate big tech most of uss know if we don't as a country they will keep gaining power period. Still regulate period ask any of uss
20:00 problem l've seen personally. big tech controlles and regulated the goverements. not sure on the solution but more goverment may be not the right thing to do currently. but change how they interact instead of how much
And this is why AI is being used for Art alot. Because thats the only thing people is able to associate AI for rather than the "wide canvas and nobody knows what to paint".
1st time ever hearing about "Threads" was lefit 1 week ago as a pop up on instagram. Lol
Been off social medias after i graduated high school in 2013 lol
