I've noticed people who are using LLMs more, myself included, are starting to talk like that.

Oops I mean, you're absolutely right, those ARE hallmark signs of an LLM. Let me breakdown why this isn't just your imagination but actually...

This is like inverse drop shipping.

I agree. It's nice and fun for lifestyle use cases like organizing a small trip with a few friends.

Re:xAI has acquired X, xAI now valued at $80B on Saturday March 29, 2025 @11:16AM (#43516196)
I thought self dealing was usually illegal. I can’t sell my family member my house for $1 for example. But you can do the same thing with companies?

Yes but is the advice based on the state of others from the perspective of Buffett, or based on others from the perspective of me?
