Wife is from Africa, buried her dad and mom.

If she wouldn't have put down her foot, they would have sucked her dry ( our money) we set a budget and they got what they got... But I can easily see other people/ wifes not setting boundaries and spending a ton of money..

Can you describe the escalation of asks?

Do we have a choice?

Management demands it

Gcp is hard to beat on k8s stuff. Performance and stability is crazy good.

But it's not aws are famous and costs money. Hence moving away seems like a good idea :)

You can run it on runpod for example.

As long as we don't find a new it energy to get stuff up, I don't think so.

Yep, that's why it won't help. The rest of the time at home, they will stick to the screen.

Like you make money with them?

It's for companies to replace people. Works out ok for them. Even four times isn't that much

Its simply not going to happen. People like Nadella call it 'tacit knowledge' - the reality is the work people do is much broader than what is producible by LLMs alone. Without the human, there is no work done. Unlike classic machinery, LLMs are not comparable in that you cant simply reduce labour input by X and be fine. Sure in the short term the consequences will not show up, but in the long term they will.

Altman and co. get down on their knees and pray that proposition is only transitory in the short run.

LLMs wont disappear, but they wont be large profit generators either. Especially not so whilst there is fierce competition and every dollar of profit is re-invested. The value of an asset is derived upon its potential cash return, net of reinvestment, taxes et al.

Altman is hoping to survive long enough to finance R&D to figure out how to encode the entirety of what humans do, to be able to come good on the asinine aspirations he has put forth that justify its valuation. But it will end in disaster.

Of course there will be humans, just way less of them.

Instead of ten, you just need two or three

You haven't put forward a compelling argument besides fluff.

This is so surface level and boring.

Most of you aren't really clued up on subject areas like Finance to talk about this stuff frankly. As long as a firm is beating its cost of capital, it will reinvest money to generate more growth. What does that mean? Oh. Hiring more people.

You forgot spacex, which will be also added, fast track :)
