we’re nearing 20 years since the 2008 financial crisis, seems like we’re due for another.

but there also needs to be incentive for sites to host content. if it all gets hijacked by search engines that isn’t sustainable.

bluesky is populated “enough”.

they would never do such a thing. not after calling out hillary clinton for using private email servers.

The problem is LLMs are programmed by biased people and trained on biased data. So “good” AI developers will attempt to mitigate that in some way.

i might. depends what the tradeoffs are.

the funny thing is they changed the movie to be different from the predictions of reddit.

I think i still agree with you though, with millions of fans speculating online some are invarably going to be right. Just make the movie you want to make.

I suspect the missing piece in a lot of cases is hiring writers/artists who are actually fans of the IP and want to do it justice. If you have that to begin with, you don’t need fans to tell you what they want.

it’s a vastly different type of business. It’s more like building roads than consumer electroinics.

weird they chose Black Panther of all the MCU movies. should have given the nod to Iron Man just for kicking off the whole thing.

AI is changing how work gets done, but not eliminating entire roles. At IBM, “a couple hundred” HR workers were replaced by AI agents, CEO Arvind Krishna told The Wall Street Journal in May.

While we have done a huge amount of work inside IBM on leveraging AI and automationon certain enterprise workflows, our total employment has actually gone up, because what it does is it gives you more investment to put into other areas,” Krishna said.

The company used AI savings to hire more programmers and salespeople.

so they did fire a couple hundred HR people, but claim that allowed them to hire more people in other areas. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

no, which was the whole point.

Phone is just an app on my phone. and god help you if you use it on me without texting first.

the person above is also assuming 0-100% charge every day. most people won’t go through a whole battery charge every day, at least for the first couple years.

you’re also assuming 0-100% charge every night which most people won’t do. so very likely much more than 3 years.

don’t feed on the rage bait.

i think they could have said it would have been less of a visual difference if it was made today. Fashion and design i think changed more from 50s-80s than it did 90s-2020s, and visuals are a huge part of making movies. But the author didn’t do a good job of making that case.

Also we did have Wonder Woman 1984. Granted the time travel was shoehorned into a superhero movie but it was almost exactly the time jump in question.

just looking at his imdb page… goddamn he was in non stop terrible movies lol.
