• What’s that, you say? Your technology dreams are okay, but the way you implement privacy, ethics, and security are actually shit and nobody wants to be near you, you say?

    Well, who am I to tell you you’re right.

    Maybe if your everything wasn’t constantly hostile and morally egregious, you’d find more success.

    Zuckerberg is stupid. That’s why he imagined what he did.

  • He’s too cheap to pay for better data annotators. I heard a few weeks ago that I’m getting a fraction of what others are paid at other firms for the same work.

  • Oh, I’m sorry, did you waste a fuckton of money on a bullshit regurgitator that isn’t profitable

  • Well, that’s because Zuckerberg felt FOMO and fired the Llama team over one bad experiment he probably pressured them into in the first place (as Llama 4 seemed like a “quick and dirty” attempt to copy Deepseek to me).

    He hired literal narcissists in their place, who gave him big promises they couldn’t possibly keep, given their background.


    Meta was literally at the center of open weights/open source ML land, which is where all this will eventually settle. Between that and PyTorch, they could have been at the center of the universe.

    But they aren’t, because Zuck is so unbelievably insecure.

    I’m not one to blame individuals for anything; systemic failure is complex. But he actually did this to himself.


    And what’s bizarre is, somehow, it will work out for him.

    I’ve been criticizing Facebook since I was in high school and it was all the rage. But here we are. Zuckerberg is more “revered” than ever.

      • You’re right, but let’s not forget that the facebook phone is really popular and the meta glasses definitely don’t look like nerd emoji. 🤓

  • But I paid so many Africans to post images of lobster Jesus for old white people to look at and share. Something was really supposed to come of that 🤔

      • Like actually? Early image models were given open ended prompts so they would just generate images based on the frequency of topics and traffic on the internet. Turns out if aliens saw our culture they would assume that some of our most important things are Jesus and crustaceans. Zuck’s dementia-ward demographic were mostly responding to any picture with a Jesus in it, though.

        But that was before generative ai found out that humans go absolutely ape-shit for neonatal face features

          • Oh my bad. Yeah just demented old people man. They do be liking stuff with Jesus in it probably because it’s one of the last things their brain still holds on to
