Not sure what you mean by this tbh. The client list in relation to the product? Do you mean the source code leak? That’s a bit what I mean by it not being safe for everything and trying to build a house out of 3d printed bricks. I’m not even certain the code leak was caused by AI generated code anyways.

I personally only build small internal apps for the rest of the team. We don’t ship software.

Granted, every tool has its use and most can be used for the wrong thing if you try hard enough. It’s also easier to use it for the wrong thing with AI, has to be said.

That’s kind of a point for it? If the code isn’t the product, then it doesn’t matter who made it if the product is built properly. And sota models certainly know where to put the nails.

A better analogy would be a 3d printer. Much quicker than carving stuff out of wood. Might fail a print but it’s still faster. It’s not exactly food safe so avoid using it for something important. Obviously, it works well for small things but trying to build a house out of 3d printed bricks is going to yield failure.

Not the best analogy though but nails and hammers and monkeys is just missing the point completely imo.

If scrapping YouTube is against the law, that just means Google owns all video generation as well as anything to do with speech for the most part. Whisper was built mainly on YouTube vids.

I used something similar in a research context and it did make me feel like a weirdo. I couldn’t look people in the eye because of the shame of it, which probably affected the overall results but anyways.

Both of those were built and aren’t on a border of a country but fully inside one. Not that I agree how the Panama canal is handled or was built, mind you.

A better comparison would be the gilbraltar straight, which obviously no one owns.

To be clear, I would be doing the same if I was Iran but it is worrisome. Furthermore, Trump deserves what’s happening but not because of some hypocrisy linked to the St. Lawrence specifically.

The energy is right but the comparison isn’t imo, that’s all.

The fact that it only leads into Canada and the US? It’s not a passage that is used by other countries for exports or imports. Any ship in it has business with one or the other.

I don’t think it’s comparable.

Everyone is quick to judge but no one has asked themselves if this is for the sexy ads. This could make things a lot easier.

Kessler syndrome though.

Sell licenses of what? It’s already all in the creative commons iirc.

It points to a deeper problem if they can. These companies have no qualms selling it to foreign states, fascist groups, etc.

I feel like luxury goods are harder to get into in terms of career change and it’s a bit off to characterize them as always needed.

If we enter a depression, people will have less money to spend on luxuries. I just think the percentage of people buying hand made furniture is kind of low. I think most people “buy” them from friends and family doing it as a semi-hobby, or are rich, at least in my experience.

Not trying to be overly critical, just saying it’s not easy.

As a side note, I’ve noticed no one makes nice wooden informational kiosks with integrated touch screen even though orgs like museums would likely buy them over plastic and metal ones. Just an idea if you were looking for a niche product.

Anything that’s done on site or with your hand. Forget about working from home or having your own hours though, most of the benefits you are used to won’t exist and it will be arguably harder work physically depending.

I’d pick something that can’t be automated since that’s also a risk even if it’s not directly AI. That means something to complicated for robots (not much), too big or messy, where it can’t be trusted entirely to robots (high safety like making plane parts) or most likely where robots can’t easily go (house plumbing and electricity for example).

A lot of trades and manual work pay very well but you have to look before hand, it’s definitely not all of them. Cooking jobs for example are pretty safe but don’t ever become a cook lol.

If you have dev experience, I’d go towards micro electronics. It’s too niche for AI to be good at it yet and has the physical part of prototyping and soldering that isn’t easily accessible by AI.

What? Ikea wrecked that a long time ago. Not that you can’t make a living but the demand isn’t high in any way whatsoever. Hand crafted furniture has become a luxury.

I was obsessed with a few YouTube channels for a while, mainly antscanada. It looks like a fun hobby tbh, I almost got myself a farm.

So I don’t know about culinary but I’m guessing it’s mostly for ant farms.

To sell. Foreign ant queens can be worth like 200$ a pop easy.

What’s the dead kid to dollar ratio? Only way to know if it was worth it.

Publishers usually get about 85 to 90% of the revenue on printed books, and 75% of the revenue on ebooks.

If using copyrighted data becomes illegal, they will get 100% of the profit from selling their data most likely.

This book should be aimed at them.
