I've been happy with Samsung's 27" 5k which has a decent clip-on camera: https://www.samsung.com/us/monitors/flat/27-viewfinity-s9-5k...

I've got one. It can be a bit annoying because I have a Samsung TV in the same room, and turning the TV off with its remote sometimes also turns the monitor off.

"They've specifically avoided trying" is also a possibility. Because what do they do if they actually find a critical flaw? Publishing leads to mass chaos. If they don't publish but it leaks, also mass chaos. (Probably just leaking the existence is enough without the actual proof). If they're "responsible" and report it to NSA, there's a good chance that model development gets forcibly halted and some chance that the entire company gets seized on national security grounds.

But this is the age when large government is generally seen as undesirable or a threat to the individual

Donald Trump would agree that the government should have a large amount of power.


The correct takeaway from this is that the AMT should be reformed, not that seizing large portions of founders' companies is fine.

that would still only account for a 6x increase in revenue-- not the 10x increase that they need to fulfill their contracts

Assuming you're talking about the $600 billion or so over the next decade, they don't need a 6x increase to cover that, they're already pretty close based on the $65B run rate as of last quarter.

their revenue is super concentrated in just a few customers

20% for the top two customers is not actually that concentrated. If both of them go to zero, at their current growth rate (45% from Q2 to Q3) it would take about 6 weeks to replace that revenue.



If the rich guy loses $1000 and you lose $10, is that good?

Well, these days when the rich guy loses $1000, the government takes my $10 and gives it to him.

I think we'll see a lot less people willing to share if the end result is just to feed the machine no matter how they arrived at it.

I don't see why I should care about this any more than I cared about "somebody I don't like could read my code and learn from it" in the past. The frontier labs can generate or buy all the training data they need; not releasing your app isn't going to hurt them in the slightest.


Give it another 6-12 months until the big AI shops shut those capabilities down and running local ones becomes cost prohibitive

I don't expect that to happen, but I do expect Apple et al to spend trillions of tokens hardening their platforms against users and red-teaming to find these sorts of holes before release.


Fair point. The megacorps probably are able to outspend pretty much any grassroots mmovement bar maybe a government led one.

People enjoy different things. Its not strange.

Yes! Which means that the argument frequently seen here of "AI is terrible because everyone hates using it" is not valid.


I wouldn't say I've seen that specific argument. But insomuch as people say that, yes, its not a valid argument.

I've seen plenty of people here claiming things like "anyone who enjoys coding hates AI," "anyone who enjoys the process as much as the outcome hates AI," "anyone who's creative hates AI," etc.

It's all projection to make themselves feel better about their difficulty adapting to change.


Those are different statements than "AI is terrible because everyone hates using it" though.

It's the exact same function applied to a different argument: "everyone" vs. some defined subset of everyone.
