"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

They spent 38.5 billion on 13 billion in revenue last year. Even if you take out training costs, operational margins are negative at a cost of 14.8 billion as long as you include sales and marketing, which you absolutely should because they are clearly hiding expenses in that bucket. Nobody would spend 5.7 billion a year on marketing when they're already losing 20 billion.
