OpenAI, a non-profit AI company that will lose anywhere from $4 billion to $5 billion this year, will at some point in the next six or so months convert into a for-profit AI company, at which point it will continue to lose money in exactly the same way. Shortly after

      The funniest part is that all the AI hype is focused on all the wrong things. There are absolutely great AI tools that get very little mention.

      For example, I’m visually impaired and use AI tools A fair bit to help me get around the internet and such. Especially when it comes to using AI I to generate descriptions of images.

        O that’s very cool! I also heard it’s super good for auto subtitles (which admittedly is a bad thing for people doing that for a living 😿).
