by commodity i think you're implying it won't be that valuable. electricity may be a commodity, but few can provide large scale electricity, power stations, etc.
and i personally hate the term 'generative ai' as far too limited/simplistic vs where ai is going. it only means generate something based on what a human presented which is weak.

The winners will be companies like Nvidia selling hardware so we can have LLMs generate crap, basically fancy memes. Sure some will be useful, human like answers to humans asking questions. Some will be incredibly useful like in medicine, chemistry, physics etc.
crap huh? i'll just say i disagree as to where it's going.

OpenAI is very far from the company it was supposed to become; therefore the product itself is as well.
we are in the 'cave painting' stage of ai.

I never looked at it that way, good one.

It scares me to think about it actually.

one of my big concerns is ai written viruses and hacking attacks... they could be very rapidly adapting, very able to hide themselves (so hard to detect), and could potentially syphon ENORMOUS amounts of money rapidly.

but i'm not scared as there's nothing i can do about it, except try to keep up my own cybersecurity and have measures if everything gets encrypted with ransomware.

Problem is, the weakest link is the end user. We spend thousands of dollars on just mandatory training alone, but even that doesn't help overcome stupid. We had three accounts compromised this year using man in the middle attacks, luckily we caught it, and the attackers were just looking to trick accounting into changing bank accounts for existing vendors to their accounts. It could have been worse, they could have tried to install ransomware and lock our servers

That's why we're going to remove humans from all decision making and let the AI do it.

And I can bet AI is easier to trick. Now we won't even see the attack because we've removed human decision making

​​​​​​ That's a completely different type of attack. The attacks against corporate institutions are a lot more sophisticated. You would be amazed. 30 years in IT, some of them could fool me if I'm not careful

Cha ching, that's what I was thinking too!

Turn off traction control first.
I know that EV has the power to burn some rubber.

More problems @ Fisker

https://www.engadget.com/fisker-halt...140050091.html

The company plans to lay off 15 percent of its workforce — nearly 200 people — as it shifts from a direct-to-consumer to a Dealer Partner model. The company is halting all investments in upcoming models and will resume only if in partnership with another automaker.
