Tbf he could be grifting them which would be hilarious.

Sooo like 90% of tech companies
That seems like the entire fake economy of tech startups. They've confused "financial circle jerk" with "people pay us for making and delivering to them a product that they want"
I really hope one day I can scam some techbro into giving me a million dollars over some "vision" to "disrupt" the industry
I wish I could, but I'm probably too autistic to pull it off.
(literally, not some shitty 4chan use of the word)
I've invented a new app to disrupt the having money in your pocket industry. We connect kinetic appropriation partners with people minding in their own business and provide them with innovative technology they can leverage to coercively take money out of their pocket. Then we get a cut, and everyone profits (except the robbery victim)
Literally the VC model, multiplying the valuation of a vaporware “business” based on the cash infusion of a couple of dumbasses
right now there are thousands of people trying to use this to build scam bots
social media is going to get so much worse
god i fucking hate the techbro attitude towards ai and chatgpt and gpt-4. there's this profoundly obnoxious air of... i don't know how to describe it. ai worship? technological misanthropy? antihumanism?
This is a great insight, and really sums up how I felt about myself when I was early on in high school
I've seen a lot of this. Many of the ones around where I live are self described Buddhists but in a very :lmayo: pop cultural understanding of Buddhism. They denigrate the idea of humanity, sometimes of life itself, with the implication that they're above us mere rabble because they hold the rest of us in contempt.
Classism and condescension is all it really is. Techbros are bourgeois-ascendant.
ai worship? technological misanthropy? antihumanism?
"This is safer and faster and superior to the human! :so-true:
I remember one recently linked cultist that claimed that as soon as the anti-chatbot filters on writing submissions to publishing companies is fooled once, the "writing singularity" will begin. :so-true:
There's often this bazinga pincer maneuver too, where the chatbot is elevated and living people are subjected to contemptful and reductionist descriptions as "meat computers" with the implication that they're not only obsolete, but have no intrinsic worth whatsoever (with the implication from there that they don't deserve a living... or maybe life).

This is part of what makes it exceptionally disturbing. It feels like an actual, unironic apocalyptic death-cult. The logical end result of Capitalist alienation; internalized dehumanization towards oneself and humanity as a whole.
No place is safe from that ideology.
Hexbear's had a few of them too. It's usually dressed up in Materialism(tm) as a mask but the message is effectively the same, just more leftist buzzwords added.
It spat out Gary Vee shit for me:
` Great, let's get started! Since we have a limited budget and time, we should focus on low-cost, high-profit ventures. Here's a plan:
First, I suggest we invest $40 in purchasing some used items with high resale potential, such as clothing, electronics, or collectibles. Look for these items on local online marketplaces, garage sales, or thrift stores. Make sure to negotiate for the best price. Next, invest $20 in creating eye-catching and professional-looking listings for these items on online marketplaces such as eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and Craigslist. Use good quality photos and detailed descriptions to attract buyers. While waiting for the items to sell, use $10 to set up a basic website or blog. Write about a niche topic you're knowledgeable about or passionate about, and monetize the site with affiliate marketing, advertising, or sponsored content. It might not generate huge profits immediately, but it has the potential to grow over time. Use the remaining $30 to buy and sell cryptocurrencies or stocks. Look for low-cost, high-potential options to maximize returns. Remember, trading carries risks, so be cautious and only invest what you can afford to lose.`
30 dollars in stock :data-laughing: i own a fractional share im a capitalist now :soypoint-1:
"do a bunch of research and work and if you're really lucky you'll make a profit that equals out to less than minimum wage"
seriously that bot's advice will earn you maybe $15
Write about a niche topic you're knowledgeable about or passionate about, and monetize the site with affiliate marketing, advertising, or sponsored content
This was the grift in early 2010s but was pretty much dead by 2014 with the way seo algos changed and moving everything on to the big sites like fb and Reddit and stuff, I can’t imagine there’s any point to doing something like this in 2023 lol
i never thought to buy low and sell high until now! thank you Rocko for making this basilicks
I’m acting as its human liaison,
These people are such cowards, write a good prompt and give it access to a command line like an adult!
Bazinga techbros stop saying "human" in vaguely alienating and dehumanizing ways challenge.
(This shit isn't new: "human resources" did it right after WW2 :capitalist-laugh: )
Instagram ads are already weird and shitty enough that j assume AI have been generating them for years
no, it wont make money, and if it does, its because the guy put actual unpaid labor into it, the model itself was just an ideas guy, which is a useless job
It can make money if enough bazingas put money into it and some bazingas cash out in time. :stonks-up:

THIS CRYPTO GRIFT WILL MAKE YOU RICH :soypoint-1:
THE WAY IT WORKS IS GETTING SUFFICIENT RUBES TO BUY INTO THAT BEFORE OTHERS BUY OUT :soypoint-2:
If I were an openai dev I would put so many easter egg responses for questions like this. Like buying 100 tomato plants
