They were named by an old lady from the Southern US. Say it with a twang.

This is 100% what is wrong with the US economy. A non-profit is concerned with money over their product/service. We are fucked.

AI provides no knowledge and only makes its users dumber for relying on it. Don’t we have enough SciFi episodes out there to have already learned this lesson?

I always look for the companies that are advertising heavily. If we could see their books, I'd say the ones that spend more on marketing than engineering, product, and ops are likely the ones who will enshittify, eventually. They are building the product or service to sell later so they are trying to drum up users and corner the market.

Unfortunately, this is just about everything in the US now.

A special kind of stupid cult at that level. The top guys are con men and the followers are rubes.

And here I thought that was a screencap from the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Very true. Pretty much everything is made up from something they saw on CSI or NCIS the night before. They are trying hard to make their "industry" cerebral when it just isn't.

Same here. Both my brother and I are left-handed. I'm the analytical engineering type. He's the musician type. I'm about as creative as an algorithm. He got the creative talent genes in the family.

I'm not saying you shouldn't. I'm just saying that we tend to sensationalize the wording more and more each day. Eventually, there will no longer be words strong enough to get the appropriate attention and people will suffer because of it.

I'm not faulting Anker. I'm faulting Gizmodo.
