If I was paid $500 billion by the US government I would not quiet quit but that's just me tbf.
I could live comfortably on that much money for five million years
Probably more, you could easily live off thw dividends and keep investing.

That's just you. Melon Husk seems to quiet quit for a loooong time now and the dude being paid billions every year.
I wouldn't quiet quit.
I'd no-call no-show quit.
I wouldn't even quiet quit, I'd full quit.
$500b and I'd be done with traditional working.
AI wasn't paid $500 bn, it was paid for.
Now, I don't believe in the sentience of AI myself, but a more apt comparison would be you being bought from the same group of people
Quit much?
LOL the mechanical turks are burning out....
In a way they are. To progress the LLMs, large amounts of current data is needed. Which now is poisoned with AI slop. The Slop is eating it‘s own shit

Honestly I find AI is more and more getting like this
I’ve asked it to do repetitive tasks and it tells me I should auromate them.
No shit.
Well yeah if you can have it write a script to do the same thing over and over again, that's more efficient and reliable than asking AI to process similar data multiple times.

Bruh this might be one my new default search engine link
It also has one without js and one for limited rendering like dillo and gemini clients.
Your links don't work to me. You need to include the protocol "https://" to your urls.

I can't wait until Windows 12, the AI-first operating system, comes out. People will ask Copilot to open the system settings and it'll be like "That's a great place to start! You can open the system settings by asking Windows Copilot to open the system settings!"
I will just use my user-first operating system called Linux.
2030, the year of Linux in the Desktop!
Windows 13 is going to have first completely uncooperative AI. You ask him to open system setting and it says "the fuck's good for me, eh?". You tell him to download Winamp and it tells you "what the fuck is that shit? it does even collect your data! fuck you, i'm not dowloading that, the gall!" or you tell him to turn itself off and it tells you "nah, i'm good" or if you ask to switch to manual it tells you "get fucked, you ain't getting that".
Easy solution: don't use google. I suggest to use one of those: DuckDuckGo, Ecosia or Searx.be.
DuckDuckgo also allow you to hide some AI images
Startpage. Google indexing without sponsorships, ai or any of that shit
I heard some bad things about startpage, for example they block VPNs and TOR

yes, I use duckduckgo typically.
This is why it's absolutely ridiculous that Google automatically has AI answer search queries. One time I searched the serial number of a washing machine and the AI came back and said something along the lines of, this looks like a serial number for some sort of product. Yeah thanks for that.
I don't necessarily have a problem with AI although I think it's going to kill the economy, my biggest issue is AI being stuffed into everything in situations where it doesn't make sense.

That's funny but it isn't redundant...
Yeah it should be recursive, not redundant
No, it should be recursive, not recursive

Gemini: this
Random dude in Gemini ad:
Thanks for sharing. I use a metasearch engine so I don't have to see it. Unfortunately that doesn't make a big difference in the broader picture. For most users this is the default experience. Slop at the top, then advertisements and only then what a search engine is supposed to return. And those burnt CPU cycles will be forced upon them. And I guess that's pretty much normalized by now. Probably also the reason why Google does it in the first place.

Click on the first search result: "Thanks for visiting our page, try our new AI chatbot to help you make the best restaurant choices!" 🤣
Ingested too much stack overflow did we?
We need to bring yellow pages back.
And newspaper, with real journalism. Oh and also privacy.
Me, holding up this month's issue of The Onion: uhh, hello
You're going to have to pay more for your newspaper. That job's income makes minimum wage look like a CEO's salary.
how the fuck is a generally aware company as google that they are poisoning their own userbase against it?
I have yet to meet anyone that wants gemeni in their browser or os.

This is dangerously close to: "here, let me google that for you." As if this brand of AI wasn't ouroboros-like enough.
Can't wait until we burn an entire rainforest running a clanker that gets into a "let me google that for you" infinite loop.
Should have also included an lmgtfy link of the query.
If had to answer all the questions, better believe I'd be phoning in a bunch of them now and then, lol.
We should go on websites they scrape data and put much much more replies like this one.
