Oooh, it has been a while since I started avoiding large chunks and forgot that one.

I live pineapple on pizza.

There is one issue with how pineapple is frequently used on pizza, and that is heat retention. When pizza has large chunks of pineapple they tend to stay hotter a lit longer than the rest of the slice, so even after the sauce has cooled to less than magma temps, the large pibeapple chunks are atill able to melt rocks.

The solution is smaller pineapple chunks of course, and that is even better with ham since it ends up more evenly distributed on the slice in addition to improved temperature consistency.

Well, their products have been going downhill so I suspect that 25% was AI genersted and then their QA is less effective because there are no devs doing unit testing.

Selling AI as a solution for everything is absolutely a lie. Modern snake oil in nearly all the public facing uses.

There are a lot of good uses for AI in science and entertainment as a way to enhance work being done by humans. Pattern recognition for lidsr in finding kist civilizations. Finding exoplanets. Finding new compoubds for medicine and manufacturing.

Hell, there is even some usage for some personal things and LLMs are great at addressing certain people’s hesitation when interacting with computers. But like the prior examples, it can’t solve anything on its own. It must be controlled and thigs like search engines and processing job applications are terrible uses for AI when humans are having trouble doing that thing already.

AI only works for technical work that requires precision when it is doing something humans were already good at. It can do a lot of those things faster, but has to be babysat if the output matters.

It’s not outside capital that leads to enshittification, it’s leverage that enshittifies a service.

Technically more precise, but for companies the leverage doesn’t really exist without the outside capital. Musk taking over twitter was the use of capital to get the leverage.

I can’t think of any business where the owner did a 180 without catering to outside capital or the company being bought out by outside capital.

That out of the way, FSD sucks, and it’s getting worse, not better. When if first come out of beta it was okay. I remember describing it as driving with a teenager, they got the general idea, but would make bad decisions so you had to watch them. Years of updates later and it’s practically unusable to me. It tries to go way under or over the speed limit, it hesitates or slams on the brakes for green lights. It slams on the brakes for cars that pull out with plenty of gap but doesn’t even notice the risky merges. It can not seem to navigate intersections anymore, damn near stopping in the middle of a turn. It actually just updated yesterday and I tried it again, it took me less than 5 miles to disable it again. It is, in my opinion, a hazard to use. I talked to my partner about it and we both agree it didn’t used to be this bad.

Sounds like it still drives like a teenager!

Which of course is terrible since it should be improving over time.

Elon says a lot of things and they are all bullshit.

Not all dehumanization is the same.

Numbers on an outfit are different than numbers written on foreheads.

Once again you focus on irrelevant minutae to avoid acknowledging that it is a comparable dehumanization tactic.

That opinion is horrible.

They do, they just don’t care.

The ability to comprehend and make use of knowledge based on changing contexts. An algorithm doesn’t have the ability to understand why it is doing what it does, nor does it have a way to apply itself outside of a predefined context.

LG fridges sure do.

AI means Artificial Intelligence.

It means Alpaca Insurance!

Also, that is an algorithm and not intelligence. Logic isn’t the same thing as intelligence.

You just described a poorly managed company, which only continues to exist as a capitalist vulture that feeds on other companies.

Poorly managed can still make profit by running companies into the ground.

A business only needs to do layoffs when it is managed poorly.

I love how often the translate option shows up in weird places.

With less heavy breathing I hope.

If the cybertruck is so safe in crashes they would be begging third parties to test it so they could smugly lord their 3rd party verified crash test data over everyone else.

Bu they don’t because they know it would be a repeat of smashing the bulletproof window on stage.
