Damn I have 8 AIs in my mouse???
My mouse has 19 buttons i can program the ai on!
God, they're so fucking dumb.
This whole thing is a bunch of rich people trying to trick each other into buying into whatever grift is a new frontier to exploit
"A fool and his money are soon parted" is such a dumb saying. All rich guys are exactly this dumb and manage to stay rich.
That's because they crossed the event horizon into such incredible density of wealth it's impossible* to divest them of truly obscene amounts of wealth.
*Unless someone does the thing in Minecraft
Time is money. Life is basically just how we experience time. We're not killing the rich. We're taking away their money. By killing them. Look I don't make the rules.
Whoever started calling this LLM shit "AI" deserves to be shoved in a locker and then dropped into a canal. Techbro dweeb? Marketing ghoul? Some fuckwit internet cretin? I don't care. Get in the goddamned box.
I remember when article spinning was consider blackhat seo. Now it's a feature of major mouse brands? Lmao.
The biggest dickheads on the planet took over the tech companies. At least the nerds that originally built it actually cared about it like... Performing a function. None of these dickheads care if they destroy it. They're not builders, they're deconstructors.
At some point along the line software technology companies went from building things into "disrupting" things and that change was essentially the act of going from constructors to destructors.
Move fast and break things !!!1!
From the blockchain to NFTs to the metaverse to AI.
I wonder what the next tech marketing fad buzzword will be.
They're going to combine it all into one thing and it's going to be a colossal waste of money and electricity but they're going to force it to be a thing for like 3 years until apple recoups 1% of the cost of developing the vision pro
this was the peak of product design in the early 00s. "look, we added a brightly colored button whose only purpose is to open up our unoptimized crapware that no one will ever intentionally use. that counts as a feature, and therefore a reason to purchase our product instead of the competitor's on next shelf"
Remember when Radio Shack tried to make cat-shaped barcode readers a thing?
Ngl there's something charming about these weird aborted versions of stuff that we figured out later, like this one is just "QR codes but stupider"
The guy who invented that thing also invented some "proprietary technology" to find bamboo fibers in ballots to prove that the 2020 election was stolen by China.
I want a mouse with a special button that generates deepdream images of thanos's cock
I want this for twitter replies
I dont think this LLM in everything trend is going to last very long. It's way too expensive for it to be in literally all consumer things. I can imagine it finding some success in B2B applications but who is going to pay Logitech to pay OpenAI $30 per million tokens? (Lambda for comparison is $0.20 per 1M requests if you pay the public rate)
There will be another massive financial recession when it finally dawns on them this shit was never gonna make any fucking money for anyone
What’s wild to me is that there’s continuing mass layoffs in tech in the middle of a huge AI bubble…when it finally bursts it’s going to be utterly brutal.
Yeah, this feels like it should be obvious to everyone it’s a bubble now
The crypto bubble lasted a long time, and unlike it, AI actually does something (not anything useful, or terribly well, but something), so I expect the bubble will last a while yet.
Throwing unlimited money and resources at the "make customer support chat bots 3% better" technology while the world burns.
Throwing unlimited money and burning fossil fuels to do that which makes the world burn faster.
Will my hand look like mangled ai art hands when I'm done using that mouse?
I cannot wait for this bubble to burst
If you enjoy popping videos, then watch this!

Consumer computing power has been a solution looking for a problem for a while now.
I love the future and I can't wait until every aspect of my life within distance of a smartphone or computer is harvested for the benefit of AI generated "content".
I have this grim vision of your phone ai summarizing your posting for the fbiai that will create a summary for the judgeai that will order your neighbors cousin drone striked based on the results of ai terrorist network modelling.
None of the people behind this stuff know what the I in AI stands for do they
This is not a new phenomenon.
Anyone remember "Turbo" or "DTP"?
Yes, there was a Turbo-mouse and a DTP-mouse.
That's what I was thinking. The Bixby button lived and died (?) long before I had to start talking about LLMs at work.
How are those wifi pressure cooker sales doing?
idk about wifi ones specifically but wasnt the issue with those more the fact that they saturated the market and anyone who wanted one either already had one or could basically just get one in perfect condition secondhand from someone who didn't use it much? I mean its kind of a gimmick, but not nearly as much as other kitchen gadgets
They surpassed the blockchain hype level long ago but I guess the difference was that concept never got the normie marketing polish that “AI” has.
Much like the old blockchain guys, AI guys get real upset when u call the tech overhyped to their face irl
Main difference is that blockchain never had an actual use case (speculation doesn't count) beyond buying heroin and running ransomware. Machine learning had practical applications for years that nobody really thought much of at the time, and the marketers got a hold of it after it was fairly well established without them and right at the point of a massive wave of breakthroughs in the area.
That being said, there is a fucking massive AI bubble. A large portion of the things we're seeing will survive when that pops, but boy are there a lot of very overconfident investors who are going to get burned hard on this.
Yeah the halcyon days of “NLP” made me like the tech but I never had any notion of the concept replacing anything but the most tedious work. It’s so bad that my bartender friend was scared for a moment that a robot would replace service work
So have we reached the end of the gee-whiz rapid overturn in consumar technology era and now the grifters are trying to keep it going because phones are powerful enough to perform any reasonably desireable operation and no one buys real pcs for home use?
These shitty gimmick is the best they got to try and monetize a technology that costs billions of dollars. Thank you Capitalism, this is really innovative! A button that only does one thing! Great!
No, it's not even one of those pointless/hazardous to information security Internet of Things…things. It's just a rice cooker.
Laser mice were the last good innovation for mice. From now on, mice only have a left click, right click, and scroll wheel.
I'm guessing you haven't used an MX Master mouse yet.
Ball baring scroll wheels are very nice. The MX Master is peak mouse technology. Unlock the scroll wheel and hit it with a constant stream of compressed air, and you might actually get to the end of the internet.
forward and back are also allowed
but why
like theyre gonna have to phone to some shithouse, theres no way its running locally on a mouse
When the hype reaches its apex, everything becomes "AI".
