  • Just coordinate the release of the urls and the transfer of the instance.

    I’m skeptical about this since you are squatting on at least 18 urls while trying to get volunteers to create value out of them. Nothing leads me to assume you are being altruistic.

    Edit: misattributed something, woops

    It seems like you are waiting for the next influx to potentially monetize and trying to hold the most potential instances without putting any work or money into it. It’s just my impression.

    I also think instances without users are a terrible idea and I’d rather real instances come about organically instead created by people that actually care about the subject.




  • The same can be said for any piece of technology that leads to job loss. Job loss should be seen as a benefit in these cases but the problem is with our economic system where it predominantly benefits a small percentage.

    That said, AI benefits a lot more than just the wealthy, especially compared to say automating a factory. Most state of the art models are open source and anyone who can afford a GPU or the 1.50$ an hour to rent one can benefit.





  • I was working at an assembly plant for plane motors (the big kind) and one of them literally blew up in the test bed. There was chunks literally embedded in the safety glass, it was a huge mess.

    Turns out someone left an orange rubber mallet inside of it. Over the course of a year, they reassembled the shredded mallet and traced it back to the toolbox that used it. The guy lost it and instead of reporting it and disassembling his last job, he just stole one from an other toolbox.

    Not mine but my buddy used to build kayaks. One of the employees took a dump in one of the kayaks and it only got caught because of a random QC test. I always giggle thinking of the client who would have received it.






  • You can use speech to text to transcribe meetings then have an LLM generate summaries. You can make an automated tagging system with the transcription or summaries as well.

    I wouldn’t have it manage appointments, just in case of errors. I don’t know for cpd, not really sure what that entails. For advertising, image generation can be a real boon but it still requires someone with some advertising and photo editing knowledge to get good results.

    It really depends on the specific task, it can fail monumentally for certain things but can be a real time and cost saver for others. It’s important to review what it does as well and test it thoroughly.
