So the TLDR: i am going to need the new deal V2, Nuremberg trials V2, and woke V2. You might as well call 2028 the start of the era of sequels. "I won't make you pay taxes" fucking miss me with that. You want to woo me? Start talking about how blood thirsty and battle tested your AG pick is.

Like where the fuck is your vision??? Like I don't want republican light. I want a cheerful warrior ready to do battle. Ideally some one who understands that the entire point of being a politician is the people you serve and convincing them that this is the way.

You will never have a better opportunity to say accountability matters, to make the case for immigration being the life blood of our country. That the laws apply to the tech industry to, and our data, privacy, and creative works should never be allowed to just get pirated away.

But that means 2028 is a one in a generation opportunity to rebuild things fresh. You will never have a better opportunity to fix the bullshit with the supreme court. You will never have a better opportunity to sell people on green energy and not being reliant on other countries oil.

I don't need doom and gloom about how you might as well pay less because the government can't do any thing. I need some one with a fucking vision. "Yes we can" is a powerful fucking statement. yeah the trump administration fucking broke things really fucking badly.

I was the first and only person in my family to go to college. I was only able to do so because of financial aid and the generosity of others. It is so fucking important to me that the ladder to success and stability not get pulled up behind me.

Dear DNC it feels like maybe you need a vibe check again. I do not give a fuck about tax cuts. I am an upper middle class liberal.I have since day fucking one been aware that the deal is an making for my values is that I pay more.

Plus I could seriously make the argument that the more money you have the more I can trace you directly benefiting off of public goods and services. Like these corporate and billionaire leaches need to pay their fair share, and their share is more because they benefit more

I just dont understand why a Dem can stand up and say we are all part of a society with their full throats. Like if you enjoy the idea that the government can occasionally step in and bail you out of your terrible mistake, than congrats taxes for you

Like the world is littered with examples of valuable tools with great return on value that small companies don't use because in the world of competing priorities they can't afford them. Again i want to stress What I am not saying is that there won't be any ai usage. Just that it will look different.

Yeah I understand what you are saying, I am just thinking smaller companies where the budget for Ai tokens/ ai services isn't unlimited. How you engage in using ai services is going to look very very different. Which is why the unsubsidized costs are so interesting to me.

In an area sourcing devs with salaries in that first bucket rather than the second. Bear in mind I am not even debating that AIs doing code reviews has a lot of value. And if you are looking at paying for salaries in the second bucket and above it might be a steal of a value.

I think there are a lot more engineers in that first bucket than people realize. And a lot more companies that need an inhouse IT/software person or two but not a whole shop than people realize. I think the break even point/affordability for 30 dollars a pr looks a lot different if you are

The first is maybe 65000 to 170000, you are a software developer making a good salary in a medium sized city. The second is maybe 170000 to 45000. You are a software engineer in either an expensive city or you work for on of the big companies.

I think this statement might have unlocked at least part of the puzzle as to why there is such a disparate views on the monetary costs of running AI. I have a tendency to forget that there are buckets of salary ranges. Like if I had to guess they are

But you have to make the case for each specific use case of AI and be able to cleanly defend what it is doing and why it does or does not introduce more risk. And for that you have to have a human willing to accept and own the risk.

Is crazy, and I have seen MANY software developers bitch about too much paperwork and process all the way up untill the point where it saves their ass. I can think of a lot of different points in the process where you can use AI to help speed things up.

Knowing that humans are not perfect and can make mistakes, can be lazy, is very much a baked in part of the system. I used to work for a company that had software as a medical devices. Depending on your risk tier of the device, the amount of paperwork generated to prove you did what you said you did

Because in regulated scenarios like this, there is literally quality control on the output of the human and internal audit processes to ensure that the humans are following the processes correctly.

Like I am genuinely fascinated by what the requirement gathering process for that app is, because the companies incentive to show you your best self with the make up on, vs. The consumer desire to have the truth are very much not always aligned....

What happens when you physically put the makeup on for all the aforementioned reasons. Like on the one hand gen Ai might really be able to help with altering the image to match what you look like with the product on. On the other hand I swear to good the app has never felt like it has been built

And then you get into either using an uploaded photo with its on set of complications on resolution and lighting or trying to let their app take the photo. Frankly their app has crashed a lot when trying to take control of the phones camera, and the photo manipulations have historically not matched
