But the marketplace! But my friend from highschool I haven’t spoken to or even sent a message in decades! Keep clinging to those excuses to hang around.
Tell me this isn’t corruption.
Corruption implies this isn’t exactly how it’s meant to work.
so corrupted that i couldn’t help but lol at the headline
This isn’t corrup-hahaha sorry I can’t even finish the sentence
Just need to readjust thresholds a bit friend. For example, I used to think that using the office of the president like a QVC platform to promote a bunch of cheap crap made in China for personal financial gain seemed pretty corrupt and not to mention just plain gross. After giving myself a violent lobotomy though (don’t tell me you haven’t thought of it too) , I’m happily purchasing a subscription to the new presidential perfume and find that it is really helpful in attracting all kinds of incel friends.
Zuck bending his own knee in the vain hope he won’t get bent over Trump’s.
Maybe he should have spent a little less attention on Caesar and tried to learn a few other lessons from history.
Dude think he’s Caesar but he’s Crassus…
Nah Elon is dimestore Crassus because he’s richer. Marky mark is Lepidus because of his horse face.
Why not Marc Anthony? He gets left in charge and everything goes wrong.
Because I don’t want to watch Marcus Zucitus run the lupercalia
Let me get my little black book of boycott.
Oh. It’s already there on the first page since forever.
Maybe I’ll just flip off Zucky when I see him next time.

This blatant cock gobbling makes me sick.
They make a nice couple. Orange lizard team.
All lick the anus
That’s a good band name
What
Lol. Our society is straight pathetic.
Our ancestors are turning over in their graves.
We’re going to end up being the most embarrassing era in American history. Assuming history is taught in the future.
I’m descended from an officer killed by the British in the American revolution.
My parents and my brother all voted for Trump.
Lol. That’s so shameful.
I’ve spent the last decade witnessing how lies and propaganda can warp people’s brains and it’s still hard for me to wrap my mind around.
Unless a miracle happens, we are set for a very dark future.
the tech CEO to right-winger pipeline is well greased in the year of our lord twenty twenty four
Someone needs to pay for all those people to attend, otherwise it will be a ghost town on the National Mall.
Whew folks lined up to kiss that ring FAST!
What about my inaugural fund???
Watch his inauguration be empty as fuck like it was last time
Supporting a fascist gala… $1,000,000.
Banning TikTok… Priceless!
The biggest problem in America is the largest most profitable companies pay 21% instead of 15% corporate income tax, apparently. Meanwhile all peeps of no taxes on tips or SS have disappeared.
I get social security not being taxes (as its literally the federal gov giving money and then taking some back), but why wouldn’t tips be taxed if they’re just additional wages?
Like what is the logical arguement, and if they weren’t why wouldn’t I ask for all wages just be “tipped” to me?
Logical Argument: It gets politicians votes.
Otherwise it makes no sense.
If there’s any good that comes of this blatant corruption, I hope it’s Trump leaving open source ML alone instead of giving into whatever monopoly Altman is pushing.
There’s basically a fediverse vs Facebook war going on within AI land, and the tremendous irony is that Zuck is a huge open weights proponent.
Because THATS the most important thing right now
No, but it’s not unimportant.
As dystopian as it is, we are stuck with AI, and there are two futures:
-
Stagnant, earth burning, censored corporate APIs.
-
Open weight, power efficient, extensively community modified, locally or “swarm” run models.
And it really is urgent, because the later has a great fighting shot now, but funding/regulation dries up for it, it will never catch up again. Altman an the “AI bros” know this which is why they are pushing the AI danger angle so hard… so you can only by it from them.
You don’t have to use AI. It’s only being crammed into proprietary software. You can steer clear of it with FOSS operating systems.
-
It’s simply a silver lining.
Frankly, I’m fine with Zuckerberg reading the room and doing what’s needed. It shouldn’t be what’s needed, there’s going to be huge blatant corruption under Trump. It’s terrible that America has put itself in this situation. But America has put itself into this situation, here we are.
So if someone lobbying for something that’s good has to suck up to Trump to get it done, that’s unfortunate but at least something good gets done. The proper fix is to get Trump back out of power again and put a more reasonable government in its place. That won’t be for a while, though, and it will require the DNC to read the room to accomplish it.
Zuck is a huge open weights proponent.
No he isn’t. It’s a position he holds for the moment to harm competitors. It allows him to take the work of others for his own profit.
The moment his engineers create a competitive improvement, it will be proprietary.
That’s, unfortunately, the position of everyone “big” in the open weights ecosystem now, just in different flavors.
If Meta creates a solid foundation of open AI to get to that point then I will give him credit for that, though. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Meta’s doing the right thing right now, if you reject that because eventually Meta will do something that isn’t then you’ll get nothing at all.
