    still don’t know how to monetize it.

    They do know how to monetize it. API access generated $1Billion in 2023. There’s also huge R&D potential in fields like genetic research and medicine.

    Profitability is another question though. Likely we’re waiting for advances in cold fusion or late stage renewable development for energy costs to go down enough.

      AI having to wait on cold fusion for profitability is one of the funnier concepts I’ve heard today, thank you.

      People pay for the “premium” because they believe the makers who said it can increase their profitability and make them money.

      My employer keeps trying to shove it down our throats too.

      They’re desperate to find anyway to make it reduce work, be cause they’ve already paid for it under the assumption it would let them cut staffing

      Now they’re finding out they got swindled, do you think they’ll re-up on AI?

      The AI companies offloaded how to monetize it to consumers and scared them into being left behind unless they discovered how to use it.

      It’s a short term bubble.
