    You know what’s crazy is we’re still in the “charge not enough to make money” phase of these VC backed startups trajectory. It’s gonna be wild when we aren’t in the “hook the users with unrealistic token prices” phase.

        I would say that Uber is a shitty company. Tipping is bs, you should get paid a decent salary and it’s your employer’s responsability to do that.

      They went from threatening people’s jobs if they didn’t use more AI, to threatening people’s jobs if they use too much AI.

      And it’s ALL the workers’ fault, the dummies. Let’s replace them all with AI.

      That’s a lot. I recently reported a coworker who was spending over 100 euros on ai. We’re a school.

          Sometimes Lemmy crowd really confuses me. Am I supposed to know what Poe is? Is it not ok to make a joke at its expense?

            Between the comments here and the article itself, there are exactly three mentions of whatever tf it is you’re talking about… all from you.

              It’s literally on the thumbnail… There’s 5 well known AI products and this random thing. Are they trying to make it seem that it’s on the same level?

                Have we really gone from commenting based on intelligently reading the article, to reading only the title, to commenting just based on the generic stock image thumbnail?
