Correction: no one can afford to acquire them.

You fail to mention the prior decades of really bad software engineers writing awful code -- off of which these models trained.

Yes, anthropic is not the only company in the world with some shitty code, and yet I feel no pangs of guilt over laughing about it.

Apple actually had the nerve to make it a point to say they’d made their keyboard intelligence better. What a joke. Can’t keyboard, my ass!

Yet Papa Johns still forgets the 20 oz soda I had ordered.

I can assure you OpenAI and Anthropic pay for hardware. They don’t receive it for free.

Fortunately, this won't happen. Trump is a populist. The war will end simply because the repercussions are far too great. And even though Israel would like to see the deaths of others continue indefinitely, they are still too small and too weak and too dependent on the US to go it alone.

Smart move. No clear path to growing meaningful revenue mixed with very expensive inference costs is not a good mix ahead of an IPO --- oh and not to mention competitors in TikTok and Instagram that are doing just fine.

Is it a smart move? Or just plainly obvious when Sora was probably hemorraghing money and had no future? A smarter move would have not to make this horrible product that no one wanted in the first place

After placing my hand on the red-hot stove, aren't I super smart for now removing my hand?


Depends, did you also fire the people who told you not to do it, and layoff the people who reluctantly installed the stove and preheated it for you as part of your exciting stove-touching initiative?

I think OAI is suffering from the Meta-effect.

That is, hiring Meta-exec's who focus on gaming numbers with no care nor sensibility of product.

Wild really. Well done Sam.


Well, now they're no longer even close to being the leader in image & video gen. They aren't the leader in coding. They are losing market share in the chatbot domain too.

So I agree with you, but also it makes me wonder what they're even selling when the IPO happens (supposedly as early as late summer 2026)? Data centers? Partnerships with the goverment?


This happening and it can’t be stopped. There is bipartisan consensus, so hard to come by otherwise, because both parties share the same corporate interests. Deal with it.

What nonsense. Does it count as a “clapback” when the CEO responds sensibly and takes responsibility? This is just pointless snark.

Between this and the Apple Vision Pro, does Apple just have one dude in their testing labs with a really really powerful neck? What is Neck Guy’s name and when did he join? Does Neck Guy work in Cupertino or is he contracted?
