At 17:00, on Monday, the 30th of June, in Granary Square, London, PauseAI will be holding our biggest protest yet. It's already Tuesday, July 1st

I gave you the data, as they say "facts don't care about your feelings."

At least the AI doesn't mean to lie to you, unlike the intention of the rest of the site.

I believe that's what a write down generally reflects: The asset is now worth less than its previous book value. Resale value isn't the most accurate way to look at it, but it generally works for explaining it: If I bought a tool for 100€, I'd book it as 100€ worth of tools. If I wanted to sell it again after using it for a while, I'd get less than those 100€ back for it, so I'd write down that difference as a loss. With buying / depreciating / selling companies instead of tools, things become more complex, but the basic idea still holds: If the whole of the company's value goes down, you write down the difference too. So unless these guys bought it for five times its value, they'll have paid less for it than they originally got.

A fairer comparison would be Eliza vs ChatGPT.

They absolutely will. AI is great if you drastically lower your standards.

A carrot perhaps... Or a very big stick.
