@davejorgenson: Some AI tools are getting dumber and more expensive. In recent weeks, AI companies have either tightened up or hiked prices on their subscription services—or throttled access to the systems they offer. GitHub paused new Copilot Pro signups in April while announcing it would move to a usage-based system from June 1. OpenAI has introduced a wider range of pricing tiers at different levels in order to try and better capture the different ways its products are used. And last month, Anthropic was forced to admit it had accidentally been serving users a cut-down version of Claude compared to the one they thought they were accessing because of an error introduced when trying to make their models more efficient. It’s all part of the challenges AI labs face in keeping up with demand, and tackling what’s already considered to have been a highly subsidized product. Nvidia, which develops the lion’s share of the chips powering the AI revolution, says that AI can now cost more than human workers. Caption from article by Chris Stokel-Walker, Inc.com.

AI is NOT intelligent. It SUMMARIZES info. THAT'S IT.

Canela and Macaroni ◡̈ :

Hope this also means AI will stop being shoved down our throats in every conceivable facet of our lives.

i.luv_tea :

What "demand"? They're forcing us to use it at work and corporations are installing it on everything they sell while making it almost impossible to delete it.

hey.there. :

"The chips powering AI now cost more than workers." Yeah, who didn't see that one coming? If it's already not cost efficient in its infancy, that's a huge red flag.

Chase :

I hate AI and yet... I love AI Dave

Edain :

you cannot convince me AI companies aren't just a trillion dollar MLM

jessiijade :

Great, I will continue to not use AI and be happy to be "left behind."

Diana Lucifera :

LOL AI IS MORE EXPENSIVE THEN JUST PAYING PEOPLE LIVABLE WAGES

EP.346 :

My current bosses worship ai so much that if you don’t use it they’re talking consider you to be insubordinate. And the ai flat out gets information wrrrronnnngggg.

CSmith :

Nobody wanted AI on XBOX regardless of market conditions.

tsamneb :

Ai was always dumb, you’re telling me it’s getting dumber?? Oh god

Kat Mac Apple Jack 🌈 :

If only they would quit embedding AI into everything I use. I didn't ask for it, and I don't use it willingly.

Remember History :

Boycott AI. Don't spend 20 bucks/month

Ariella Monti Romance Author :

I wish AI would shrink itself into nonexistence.

Dakota26 :

This dude is such a creative genius at explaining stuff.

apollo421 :

Maybe we just need to realize ai is genuinely useless to most people

Tina :

We have movies about this…

Jordan Morales :
