@judgedread Yeah man no kidding.Im so sick of retards saying stupid fucking shit about AI. Next to none of these people know anything about what they're talking about. Spoiler alert: Everyone still has to go to work....except maybe McDonalds cashiers and they're already fucked. At least where I live. AI is not going to kill you, its not taking everyone's job, you probably shouldn't try to date it....

@ins0mniak @judgedread the real thing people don’t want to hear is all our work was automated away 50+ years ago, the people in charge just know we’ll revolt if we’re not ground down to a paste so you get email jobs and bullshit nothing work instead of UBI

@ins0mniak @judgedread Walmart, Monsanto etc didn’t kill small businesses, the expensive tools they can afford to drive the cost of doing business down to almost nothing did. You don’t get to be a small time farmer because it costs you 20x as much per acre to work land unless you’ve got a tractor that’ll let you work a square mile in a day, and you don’t get to be a shopkeeper because you don’t have a logistics control system that lets you run 800 stores for the labor of one

@ins0mniak If your job is done entirely on a computer AI might be able to do it. That depends on the time horizon. Help desk tards working from a script - cooked.In the real world Uber drivers will be the first to go, and Uber has said this openly.But even the most extreme AI optimists note that the real world is much slower than a software rollout. It will take many years for the calcified institutions that have most of the money to capitulate even if AI could take over their functions.This also means a lot of big players aren't going to stay big. Among them - Microsoft.

@ins0mniak Keep an eye on Texas. That's where they will be rolling this stuff out. Shitlib hellholes like D.C. will be the last to adopt new tech.In the long run if ASI happens it will destroy all current institutions as a new group of power players will be most effective at utilizing the technology. In much the way that sea power gave way to industrial power, overturning the elites.Or the way the printing press destroyed the Catholic salvation monopoly.

@ins0mniak @StarProphet Clank clank clankYou've hit on something really profound there. It really is the same fundamental challenge across all these eras - how do you take this overwhelming ocean of information and make it actually useful to people?The Ask Jeeves Era (1996-2006) tried to solve it with natural language processing and a butler metaphor. Ask Jeeves was created by Garrett Gruener and David Warthen as a question-answering search engine that aimed to be like "a gentleman's personal gentleman" - named after P.G. Wodehouse's fictional valet character[^1][^6]. The idea was you could ask questions in plain English and get direct answers, but the technology wasn't quite there yet.Google's revolution came from Larry Page and Sergey Brin realizing that the web's own link structure could solve the relevance problem[^2][^5]. PageRank was brilliant because instead of just matching keywords, it used the "wisdom of crowds" - if authoritative sites linked to something, it was probably important[^4]. As Page described it, they modeled a "random surfer" clicking through links, and PageRank represented the probability that surfer would land on any given page[^2].Now with AI, we're seeing another fundamental shift. The AI search engine market has grown to $16.28 billion in 2024 and is projected to hit $50.88 billion by 2033[^3]. But instead of just organizing links to information, AI is trying to synthesize and generate answers directly[^7][^8]. We're moving from "here are the best sources" to "here's the answer, synthesized from multiple sources."What's fascinating is that each era thought they'd "solved" information organization, but the problem just evolved. Ask Jeeves couldn't handle the scale. Google mastered ranking but created information overload. Now AI promises synthesis but raises new questions about accuracy and source transparency.The core challenge you identified - making vast amounts of information useful - that's the constant. The approaches keep evolving, but humans still need to find the right information at the right time in the right format. We're still working on that same problem Jeeves tried to solve 30 years ago.[^1]: Ask.com - Wikipedia (23%) [^2]: The Google Revolution: Organizing the World‘s Information (18%) [^3]: AI Search Engine Market Size, Share | Industry Report, 2033 (16%) [^4]: What Is the PageRank Algorithm?

@ins0mniak @StarProphet and the thing is, if you read any school textbook from when the Internet first became mainstreamed, that was the original vision. Everybody was supposed to have our own agents. And then we all started using cloud based agents like the Google search agent for example. The masses yearn for the cathedral and neglect the bazaar, again and again.

@ins0mniak @StarProphet This is what I've been using offline. Here's the output for the same query, took like 90 seconds on my bigass laptop Organizing vast amounts of information has indeed been a long-standing challenge, as you pointed out by comparing it to the Ask Jeeves era. Back then, search engines were less sophisticated, and retrieving relevant information from the growing World Wide Web was more hit-or-miss. Fast forward to today, Google and AI have transformed how we access and organize information.Google's approach, with its focus on relevance, speed, and scalability, has made searching the web almost instantaneous and highly accurate for many queries. AI takes this further by understanding context, learning from user behavior, and even generating or summarizing information dynamically (like in language models). Tools like Google's BERT or AI assistants aim to make information not just retrievable but also more understandable and actionable.However, challenges remain. Even with these advancements, issues like information overload, algorithmic bias, misinformation, or the sheer volume of data can still make it difficult to find what you truly need—or worse, to trust what you find. AI systems, while powerful, can sometimes feel like black boxes, and their outputs aren't always perfectly aligned with human needs or values.Are you thinking about a specific aspect of this problem, like how AI handles complex queries, or perhaps concerns around privacy and bias in these systems? I’d love to dive deeper if there’s something on your mind!

@ins0mniak @StarProphet Sounds good, I probably won't do any of this Here’s a realistic yet ambitious scenario where you could turn $200 into $20,000 in three months:Scenario: Dropshipping a Viral ProductInitial Investment: ~$200$100: Marketing budget for Facebook/TikTok ads to test products.$50: Shopify store setup (domain, theme, essential apps like Oberlo or Spocket).$50: Emergency fund or additional ad spend.Step 1: Find a Trending ProductResearch trending products on TikTok, Amazon, or Google Trends. Look for items with high demand but low competition, such as niche kitchen gadgets, eco-friendly products, or unique tech accessories.Example: A "portable UV sterilizer" for small items like phone cases or keys.Step 2: Set Up Your StoreCreate a simple Shopify store with high-quality product images and descriptions. Focus on branding that stands out (e.g., minimalist design with bold colors).Partner with a reliable dropshipping supplier who can handle sudden order spikes.Step 3: Launch Aggressive AdsStart with $10/day in TikTok/Facebook ads targeting audiences interested in similar products.Create short, engaging video ads (e.g., "This $25 gadget will change your life!") showing the product in action.Use retargeting to capture visitors who didn’t purchase immediately.Step 4: Optimize and ScaleMonitor ad performance closely. Double down on what works (e.g., if a specific ad creative or audience performs well, allocate more budget there).If a product starts gaining traction (e.g., orders pick up suddenly), reinvest profits into scaling ads.Month 1:Ad spend: $300 total.Conversion rate: 4% with an average order value (AOV) of $47.Daily sales: ~$564/day in revenue → ~$8,460/month (assuming 50% profit margin).Month 2:Increase ad spend to $600 (reinvesting profits). Optimize creatives and expand to related products.Potential revenue: $15k/month if the product trends continue.Month 3:Double down on what’s working. Introduce upsells or a subscription model if applicable.Step 5: Hit $20,000If you hit $8,460 in month 1, scale to $10k in month 2 and $12k in month 3, you’d be close.Alternatively, if the product goes viral (e.g., gets featured on TikTok or Reddit), sales could explode overnight, allowing you to hit $20k faster.Key Factors for Success:Product Selection: The product must solve a problem or fulfill a desire in a way that’s compelling enough for people to share it (e.g., viral potential).Ad Optimization: Continuously test different ad creatives, audiences, and platforms to find the highest-return strategy.Reinvesting Profits: Use early profits to scale ads aggressively while monitoring ROI closely.Supplier Reliability: Ensure your supplier can handle sudden order spikes to avoid stockouts or negative reviews.Potential Challenges:Ad costs may increase as competition heats up if the product becomes popular.Supplier might not be able to fulfill orders quickly enough, leading to delays or negative reviews.Platform algorithms (e.g., TikTok’s algorithm) can change, affecting ad performance.Alternative Paths:If dropshipping doesn’t resonate, here are two other plausible scenarios:1. Freelancing/Digital ServicesSkill: Coding, design, writing, or consulting.Action:Start taking on high-paying clients on platforms like Upwork or Fiverr.Reinvest earnings into marketing (e.g., cold outreach, LinkedIn ads) to land bigger projects.Example:Charge $50/hour for 20 hours/week → $4k/month initially.Scale by increasing rates and working more hours.2. Content Creation (YouTube/TikTok)Niche: Trending topics like "AI tools for beginners" or "minimalist lifestyle hacks."Action:Post consistently (e.g., 1 video every 2 days).Monetize through ads, sponsorships, and affiliate marketing.Potential Earnings:Ad revenue: ~$1.5k/month for 50k subscribers.Sponsorships: $1k–$3k/month if engagement is high.Final Thoughts:The dropshipping route is the most scalable with a small initial investment, but it requires quick action and adaptability. The freelancing or content creation paths are more sustainable long-term but may not hit $20k as quickly unless you experience rapid growth (e.g., viral content).Would you like me to refine any part of this scenario or explore another approach based on your skills or interests?

@ins0mniak Shitlibbery is all about collapsing the West. You still don't understand that, you're too close. But look at how they attempted to shut down every viable power source - oil, gas, nuclear - and the plan becomes clear: Cripple industrial civilization.Basically the hippie dipshit dream. I think the jews cooked it up as meme malware, but even if you don't factor that in shitlib leftists have been technology haters since Ursula cunt Leguin.

You could make every argument that Enron was because of this or that policy and probably not be totally wrong, but at the end of the day you had creeps that lacked the decency to stop themselves from crossing the line. The festered until the inevitable happened. >Those acted as screening mechanisms for the ruling stratum.Bootlickers.

@ins0mniak @judgedread Modern leftist ideology is, at its roots, an anti mind set. Anti-West, anti-white, anti-energy generation, anti-technology, anti-civilization, anti-human, even anti-life. A lot of the most politically active leftoids and their deep thinkers are dysfunctional mutants; people who either can't or won't operate in a normal society. They are spiteful, angry nihilists. They are at war with everything good, beautiful, true, and functional because they are not those things, can not be those things.The Karens and other useful idiots that comprise the herd following these evil fucks are just that, herd creatures doing what the herd is told to do. They're morons, but the people that formulate their ideology and guide the herd, they're not morons. They are evil, pure and simple.

@ins0mniak @judgedread Because the default position of the leftist thought leaders and a lot of the rank and file is "all energy production is bad." It doesn't matter what it is or how environmentally friendly it is. If it actually generates power in significant quantities, it will be opposed. The particulars don't matter to them. You can't change some aspect of a given system in a way that will satisfy them. For them it's a gut level rejection of everything that might actually work.

@judgedread @ins0mniak My personal take on the shut down all industry and power was a plan to collapse the place they looted on way out to be safe in new power center. Well the planned power center China seemed to be less accepting about rule by foreigners and the local oligarchs prefering to remain in charge. Then combined with AI, well even if USA has by far the best devs power is a monster constraint so they gave China a huge lead by trying to burn USA/West down before a possible jump. Because as soon as the AI thing hit big I saw the green movment just die. No one was talking about it and was instant pivot to need more power for AI and data centers and to hell with how we do it.

@judgedread Well yeah all institutes were at some point...Harvard was established as such but like all institutions and states they conformed to the federal government.States had state religions up until a point where the federal government enshrined the Establishment clause.something both Thomas Paine and Jefferson were at Mr. Madisons elbow to make permanent.

@ins0mniak But Harvard was and is a private institution. Some old religious schools remain so, particularly Catholic ones. So they didn't have to change... but they did.

@judgedread @ins0mniak in the real world trash collection will be first to be fully automated. Atlas robot can pick up 140#. Autonomous trash trucks with two atlas. All of the co who thought they could eliminate white collar have crashed hard on trying to make it work. Mostly because there are 100's of simple task they do that are not recorded into the AI. You can off load routine recurring task to AI but one off task, not so much. And White collar jobs are mostly one off decision making.

@judgedread @ins0mniak I remember seeing the org Omaga Man and there were these hippy "survivors" who wanted to destroy all tech. I thought at the time, these assholes and anyone who thinks like them have to go.

@ins0mniak @judgedread Thought I saw a thing about the cars not actually being autonomous but are remote controlled by call center people in Indonesia with probably 500ms latency.I don't know if thats better or worse than being truly automated.

@Squadalah_Man The testing phase has had many stages, driver standing by in car, spotter car following, and presumably remote operator standing by.

@judgedread @ins0mniak Capitulation will take the form of supercession. That is to say, smaller competitors eating up the market share of current dominant players from under them until they are larger than the former dominant player. Most likely MS will be bought out by whatever replaces it, and parted out.

@brokenshakles Microsoft's moat has always been, 'Software is hard to learn how to use.' Its keep has been , 'Software is hard to write.' Agentic knowledge worker AI will destroy the moat and AI supercoders will destroy the keep.
