@GossiTheDog I wonder what lead him to assuming that they have this "social permission" in the first place
@djvdq @GossiTheDog They got the deals to build the data centers on other people's property, mostly in rural areas where potential new work places are welcome to stimulate the local economy. This is the "social permission" they're bound to lose. Also legislators restricting the use of these data centers. Europe for instance faces a major energy crisis at the moment, with the climate crisis on the door mat, electricity is becoming a very scarce resource.

@djvdq @GossiTheDog Money. As a society we've let people and large companies accumulate control over a large portion of our resources, which they are able to use for pretty much anything they want. The only reason he is worried about it now is people have stopped giving him money.

@GossiTheDog Not yet found an application that uses general AI (vs machine learning non-LLM as a subsystem) that doesn't hinder my work. Easier to work it out myself from scratch and refine it than to correct a mediocre billion-dollar hot mess. #ai #genAI

@GossiTheDog They never got social permission. Most folk seem pretty set on burning AI.

Microsoft CEO laments that he needs to find something to do with AI, or lose the social backing needed to sell it? LOL.

The social permission's already gone, it's just waiting for upcoming elections to manifest. -

LOL, Nvidia'sJensen Huang. You don't give a shit about hurting society. You care that your business may suffer when all that AI slop, on which you and your wealth cohort chose to spent a trillion dollars, doesn't succeed in the market.
As they tell every investor, your investment is not guaranteed and is vulnerable to risk of loss. You don't get a bailout because of how big you or your bet are, jack ass.

I use AI all day, every day, just not copilot. Copilot sucks. Like anything Microsoft creates, copilot is 75% finished and twice as sucky as anything anyone else creates.

@GossiTheDog I wonder if Nadella really doesn't understand the difference between impunity and consent; or if he's just playing dumb.

@djvdq @GossiTheDog people happily picked up ChatGPT and started using it to form everything longer than a three word sentence, so I'd say the social permission is very much there.
