- Comment on AI Is Too Expensive 1 month ago:
I think AI is a huge red herring for a lot of the massive layoffs we have seen. this is class warfare masquerading as a technological shift but I dont trust for a second most of these CEOs believe what they are saying (the dumbs ones for sure do).

- Comment on Why aren't non-selfhosed AI models/apps private? 2 months ago:
you ask the user for it if they want to recover the account and hash it. if the hash matches your previously stored hash then you send the email
other providers that position themselves as secure for activists or journalists do exactly that and they cannot handle that information
- Comment on Why aren't non-selfhosed AI models/apps private? 2 months ago:
in that particular case the people involved were identified through their recovery email which they did not hash like ‘safe’ other providers do. they have positioned themselves as safe even for activist and journalists and have failed to deliver in that account consistently.
no surprise since their CEO is a MAGA guy

while this sounds awful. there is little correlation between patents and actual features. companies patent whatever they can. it mean little if it is a good idea or not. they just want the largest possible patent portfolio.
