I was going to say. If such a wave existed, Microsoft (which has considerable leverage over, and integration with, OpenAI) rode it better than almost every other company.
Oh no no, they have NOT been riding this wave well.
Microsoft and Google have each invested like 200 billion into AI crap and Google wound up with a MUCH better product.
Apple has invested like 10% of that, choosing instead to outsource. IMO they are the real winners here (of the previously-established tech giants)
My prediction is that Anthropic will “win” the AI arms race in the US but it won’t really matter because Deepseek continues to one-up them and OpenAI’s bankruptcy will destroy the economy anyway
Why the fuck would we want to help? Every AI product I’ve encountered has been dogshit. There is no “actual AI”. Just slop machines shitting slop into each other and poisoning any data they are able to alter.
Microsoft isn’t working on those things. Consumer facing shit is what people are talking about when we bitch about AI. We’re not going to add an annotation with the few exceptions every time we post about how terrible it is. Besides that there’s plenty of LLM shit being put into medicine and science where it doesn’t belong too. People are going to die because of this crap if they haven’t already. For the vast majority of people there is no distinction and that’s dangerous as fuck. Better to conflate it all as shit and let the useful products rebrand behind the scenes than to keep shoving LLMs into everything because they’re riding on the coattails of a handful of good applications.
This comment is also bullshit. ML products that sometimes are useful isn’t “AI”, they don’t have anything in common but some group of algorithms that we called “learning” back then when we thought it’s cute to do this skeuomorphic naming.
AI doesn’t exist because the term AI doesn’t mean anything anymore. It barely meant anything back then when computers were the size of a room, and it means less now.
So when you’re trying to smuggly “y’all rubes and peasants, you know nothing of actual magic, only I know actual magic”, you’re starting with the wrong premise, where AI is actually a thing, while it isn’t, no matter how much marketing is throwing around.
The “AI wave” is a scam. Everyone missed the AI wave because it sucks at everything except making slop.

That’s why I embraced the Dagothwave.

Doesn’t exist, so there is the only one statement we can make about it, and it will have to be a blanket one.
