Yet Google is valued at a 10X multiple, Anthropic a 35X and OpenAI 100x revenue... Nothing abnormal about this at all, imagine think an extermely unprofitable autocomplete tool should be worth 100x revenue lmfao.

However, when youre entrenched with the military/gov like OpenAI (see discord/persona leaks) you're basically invinsible. Especially when that military is the reincarnation of Nazi Germany , and a fourth Reich (The USA).

OpenAI is another BS national security project larping as a private company, like facebook, like starlink ect ect. Hard to get congress to approve your mass surveillance programs so you get them funded through markets with fake entrepreneurs like Elon and Altman.

The title and escrow industry is using Gemini (via Qualia Clear) enough so that Qualia accounts for 100 billions of token usage in about 3 months. Just because you don't see who is using it, and how, doesn't mean that when the dust settles, the people actually using AI for real purposes wont keep using AI. I'm not sure which AI models big pharma is using, but there's already at least one new pharmaceutical drug in the secondary testing phase, showing strong results.

There will definitely be room for AI. OpenAI is just not really showing that they care about a particular business model. Probably a strong indicator that Sam Altman is probably the worst person to lead that company. Anthropic will be profitable before OpenAI ever will be.

Gemini is in the green in terms of spending / income ratio FYI. I'm not talking about stocks.

I can't believe people who think this actually exist.

Have you watched the news recently?

Maybe you should get your news from a different source. Personally I prefer raw sources. I watch every official press briefing to hear from the horses mouth. You come to find that regardless of who is president news orgs put their own spin on it and you miss things they dont cover. Its all streamed on official government accounts.

Lmao, press briefings from the office of the führer is such a solid source to base your reality off of.

By the way if Kamala, Biden or Newsom was in office id also call them führer.

We live in a technocratic authoritarian state, the worlds largest prison population, the most police executions, we are actively sponsoring multiple genocides, we've killed over one million civilions in the middle east in two decades.

our politicians on both sides will go out of their way to protect pedophilic members of the ruling class...

But you want to tell us we're exaggerating or interpreting a reality that doesnt exist, i think youre the one who's been convinced through the regimes doublespeak that everythings alright.

Please revaluate. The US government is literally the 4th reich and actively committing halocausts on multiple fronts.

Do you know any history? You dishonor the people who died from horrible atrocities in WWII to make some glib performative political posturing. It's shameful behavior. Do better. Be better.

WWII didn’t start overnight. The Sturmabteilung (SA), also known as “The Brownshirts,” have a strong similarity to what we’re seeing with ICE and CBP. The SA were Hitler’s enforcers before the SS, during the 1920s and early 1930s. They were eventually usurped by the SS during “Night of the Long Knives” where SA leadership were executed by the SS. Largely because Hitler had felt threatened by the power Ernst Röhm had amassed (among other reasons). And the SA, like ICE, was made up largely of untrained sycophants and thugs who enjoy violence. They committed violence, harassed citizens, and had no consequences for doing so. They were also instrumental in laying the foundation for the genocide and atrocities committed by the Nazi party.

It’s not a dishonor to their memories, or the atrocities committed, to call that out. It is not a dishonor to say there are stark and real similarities between the way the US is operating and treating civilians.

I personally find the opposite, IMHO it is dishonors their memories to refuse to acknowledge the similarities.

I’ve posted a comment similar to this one here before, and like how I ended it. I strongly encourage you to read about the history of Nazi Germany and how it came to happen. It wasn’t just a zero to death camps, it was 15 years in the making. That history is deeply shocking, as it is depressing, because the parallels and timelines are too similar for anything besides outright discomfort, sadness, and fear between it and the US. But without knowing it, we are ever more likely to repeat it.

One final thing to note: the US has a history of extreme violence, slave patrols and the treatment of non-whites of the 19th century were an inspiration for Hitler.

We've killed over 1mm civilians in the middle east over the last two decades, have hundreds of our own concentration camps (prisons). You would have been rooting for the nazis if born i. Germany in the 1930s like you are now. You are a nazi, sorry you will be remembered as one in history. I could care less about what a Nazi thinks about himself
