Lol, no. We don’t want to use our tax payer dollars to fund your failing tech.

We don’t even have government healthcare for all but you want us to pay for this? Absolutely not.

And saddle them with the debt. Fuck the investors and the cyclical scam machine. They should forfeit that money outright.

The correct thing to do is to announce that there will be no bailout, and there will be criminal liability for any fraudulent practices that drove the hype cycle. Anything else will just encourage an even worse mega-scam next time. Let 'em burn to the fucking ground. Until and unless there’s proper accountability and meaningful controls, we don’t need LLMs.

Yeah, because the government picking winners has such a stellar track record. /s

I like this idea. Let the government print tons of money and buy these companies, and while they’re doing that, my net worth will go up since I hold my net worth in Monero and not Fiat.

Edit: Maybe this will teach people that the government doesn’t care about you and that the only safe thing to hold is something they can’t print out of thin air.

What the actual fuck, Guardian.

If it sounds dumb, it’s because it’s meant to. “Buy them if they fail” debate leads to more onerous alternative proposals. The US is on a mission to make Skynet for Israel or China wins. It’s hard for them to fail when Skynet will pay high prices for their datacenter time. But if they fail, it will be because they are too expensive, and “American people” owning them doesn’t pay American people anything if they are stuck losing money forever. And the other alternatives that stem from debate, is “why not just throw government money at bubble top rates?”

What? No. You want the government to be in control of this tech directly? Jesus Christ, I can’t tell which is worse, our situation now, or if we nationalized it and the goddamned federal government was calling the shots directly.

We should seize control of them by legal process and explode them with due process in law and all that shit.

All this bubble pumping bullshit is a desperate attempt to maintain their AI monopoly.

The reality is most tasks AI is actually useful for do not require >75% of the full AI model to do said tasks well.

This is why they’re also trying to monopolize computing power. Because once people realize they can run AI locally without a gaming PC these digital snake oil salesmen are fubar.

here’s how hard I hit the “ef” on that “fuck no”:

F

The bubble is getting ready to pop and big investors want their exit liquidity. If they can’t plunder your 401ks and retirement accounts then they they will take it via taxes and public debt.

As much as I like Bernie I think he is playing right into their hands on this one by suggesting the government take a share in these companies.

Fuck that. My tax dollars will not be funding corporate bail outs.

NO.

WHAT THE FUCK, BRUCE?

From space to telecommunications, the US has a long history of fostering technology for the public good.

This one sentence alone is enough to dismiss the entire knob-slobbering article in my eyes.

Edit: A word.

They should force them to open source their models, datasets, and research
