this is the type of deal we're going to keep seeing when Big Tech needs to pretend it's not acquiring a company out of antitrust concerns but is basically acquiring a company (c.f. Scale AI deal). mostly curious if Trump FTC/DOJ care anymore compared to previous admin

i am not saying AI wont take jobs β€” far from it. but i dont buy the view that it will be a clean and easy replacement. i think at least for now it's going to be far more embarrassing than prognosticated about as fortune 500 companies create chatbots that are worse than ever.

the problem with all the "ai will take all our jobs" people is that it doesnt account for the amount of rehiring that will occur b/c of how poorly the first wave of shit being rolled out is going

they deserve it because this is the business they are in, and are now scrambling to figure out how to survive without killing the cash cows they birthed to become the dominant players they are now.

the irony is these companies created ad models that are polluting their own platforms (cf all top search ads for the average Google query) and are being eaten alive by AI searches. now they are all rushing to reinvent themselves before being killed by their own creation.

people are flocking to AI apps because the open internet was killed by the modern digital advertising business model. most web pages are a garbage fire of terrible ads by pure necessity of survival because all the $$$ goes to Goog, Meta and Amzn.
