The way I see it, all these general LLMs and AIs are just the learning tools for the actual future use for ML.

Companies are throwing money and research at them for easy gains, but once the bubble pops, most of them will be irrelevant and will die off. Once there’s no reason to “move fast and break things”, the actual slow and methodical research will start happening to find where ML belongs in this world.

In the future, specialized companies will utilize all the research being done today to craft more focused tools that do things that machine learning is actually useful for.

ML tech isn’t going away. It just needs to mature to the point where these useless bots aren’t worth the effort.

My guess has a few factors to it (in no particular order):

Cost soda syrup is likely a lot cheaper than the chemical concoction for energy drinks.

Safety Energy drinks pose a much greater health risk if the concentrations are off. Companies would have to prevent young children from accessing the machines (if they are used in restaurants). They would also have to prevent customers from drinking too much. I can also imagine chugging a bunch of the syrup would likely kill you (it’s bound to happen).

Flavor Control soda companies already accept and plan for the difference in fountain vs bottled sodas. I feel energy drink companies want as much control as possible to keep their brand image perfect.

I always like it when it pops up on my feed

Thanks 😊

I have. Made a post there a week or two ago.

You’re talking about !FloatingIsFun@fedia.io right?

Mine is doing surprisingly well and I still don’t fully believe it. It’s simply pics that make you think of the person you care about most, like a best friend or partner.

600 MAU, 260 subscribers, and plenty of upvotes. I guess people love being sappy 😆. I wasn’t expecting much activity to be honest. Not many people post their own images, but that’s alright by me.

Honestly, I really just made the community for the person I started falling in love with. (We’re talking about starting a serious relationship soon 😊). I haven’t shared the community with them yet, but I plan to soon. Now that it’s filled up with posts, I want to write them a long, sappy letter and share all the posts.

Sadly they are not mine. All of the pics I find are from random places on the Internet. A person in my house has severe allergies, so having pets is out of the question. One day I hope to be able to get my own pets.

Adorable!

It really is a special community to me. Some day soon I want to show it to the special person in my life. I’ve been secretly finding all these pics just for them 😊

That makes me happy to hear! 💕

I’m so excited about the Deckard. I really want it to be good enough to replace my Index.

Scavengers Reign 100% it!

Even found the clip:

New complain is this:

In a complaint filed Friday, the NLRB’s Los Angeles office said the tech giant imposed “numerous” unlawful rules on workers, including confidentiality agreements, non-disclosure policies, non-compete policies, misconduct policies, and social media policies that violate the National Labor Relations Act.

This is a fun extra from last year:

In June of 2023, the NLRB regional office in Oakland, California filed a complaint against Apple alleging the company illegally fired, disciplined, threatened, and interrogated an employee for engaging in protected union activity at its headquarters in Cupertino, California. And in December 2022, the agency’s Atlanta office accused the company of interrogating employees and forcing them to attend anti-union meetings. Both of those cases are awaiting rulings from NLRB administrative law judges.
