  • DurkMcgurkin
    Durk McGurkin (@DurkMcgurkin) reported

    @truestormyjoe Hear me out. The AI battle serves as a proxy for the economic battle with the Deep State - specifically the CCP / “deep state” version of China that has spent the last five decades trying to weaken and destroy the U.S. economy and military. The growth of the big tech giants was not organic. Most of them began as university projects funded by CIA or DARPA grants. Once a suitable commercial host existed, those projects were advanced and funded more directly. In exchange, they were seeded with technology that had already been developed inside classified programs. That arrangement did two things. First, it moved dark-project capabilities (mass surveillance, data collection, and related tools) into the mainstream, where they could be used openly and “legitimately.” Second, it capitalized those technologies so they could become a long-term funding stream. The Magnificent 7 (NVIDIA, Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Tesla) now have a combined market cap of about $23.7 trillion, or roughly 24% of the U.S. stock market. That value sits on technology originally funded by U.S. taxpayers. In that sense, the wealth should belong to the American public. The problem is practical. If these companies are fundamentally illegitimate, how do you unwind them without wrecking the economy? Evaporating 24% of U.S. equity value overnight would collapse the U.S. market and take the world with it. So how do you extract that wealth and return it to American citizens? You bring manufacturing back to the United States and you make the big tech giants pay for it. It is, afterall, public money. The first bill they should cover is electrical infrastructure, the real bottleneck. Even if the country wanted to reshore everything lost over the last five decades, it could not do it on the current grid. Power generation and transmission would choke the effort. A basic, usable rebuild of generation and transmission would take at least five years. The grid is already worn down. Layer after layer of regulation has made it harder to plan, permit, and bring new generation online. Climate initiatives functioned as a brake on new capacity. Even the LED lighting shift, looked at this way, reduced load enough over two decades to justify retiring or delaying generation - on the order of a 5–10% hit to needed capacity. The pattern, in this view, was deliberate: hollow out the manufacturing base, move it overseas, then let the power system age while blocking upgrades. The aim was to break U.S. supply chains so the country would no longer be an economic or military threat. The claim now is that the Magnificent 7 are under patriot control, and that their wealth is quietly being used to fund the electrical and industrial rebuild. “AI” and “the race with China” are the cover story. They are not entirely false. The CCP version of China did take a large share of the U.S. manufacturing base, and that did leave the United States more vulnerable - economically and militarily. In this sense the AI race is real and is of strategic economic and military importance and it has to be done carefully to prevent an implosion of the economy.

    $AMZN - AMAZON SOLD ITS AD AUCTION AS SECOND-PRICE. THE FTC SAYS ADVERTISERS PAID THEIR OWN BID 80% OF THE TIME The FTC and the attorneys general of 22 states sued Amazon on Monday over the auctions that decide whose ad appears beside a search on its store. Amazon has described those auctions for years as second-price: win the keyword and you pay a cent more than the next-highest bidder, not the number you wrote down. The complaint alleges that in 2019 Amazon quietly added an undisclosed charge, called internally a "soft reserve price" and set by what one of its own documents calls an "invented auction participant." The share of Sponsored Products advertisers who ended up paying their own full bid went from 30–40% in 2021 to roughly 80% by 2024, according to the complaint. None of it is proven. For scale, advertising billed $19.8 billion in the June quarter. The concealment is the mechanism rather than a detail of it. Bid into a first-price auction and you shade your number down, because you pay exactly what you write; bid into a second-price one and you go close to what the keyword is really worth, because someone else's number sets what you pay. A surcharge like the one alleged only keeps earning while the people bidding still believe the old rule holds.

    Gabby Haze (@GabbardRH) reported

    @Valdain @omgsidewalks I don't think anyone is talking about anyone being "unrestrained". Here's the issue -- American workers are now competing with some of the poorest people in the world for jobs. At first, it was just manufacturing plants that were moved overseas. Then, call centers and customer service were moved to India. Today, you have companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Apple, IBM, and Netflix that have opened global capability centers in India doing software engineering, product, AI/data, and finance operations. The outsourcing of labor overseas is moving rapidly up the food chain. An American company must comply with regulations placed on them by the government ON AMERICAN EMPLOYEES. They can't force the company to use American workers. Each regulation makes American employees less and less attractive compared to international alternatives. So, the regulation better be worth it.

    @SaveUSAKitty The bad part is that in very few years the space needed will be much less, energy too. As the tech advances it will use less materials and use less electricity. We need to win the A.I. race, but there are other factors we must cover. Electricity is not the issue. It's the water systems used to cool the equipment. If money is invested into the system, it's usually fine. If not, then the surrounding area will be affected. Not to mention the "grey" noise. It can cause health issues for some, especially older folks. I'm not saying don't do it, but why not place them away from people like Amazon already does, even Facebook does. Most of theirs are in the middle of nowhere along the Columbia river between OR & WA. Umatilla, OR is the center of the "hidden" data centers for the big 4

    @amazonnews Hopefully Amazon gets broken up. You've screwed over small sellers, consumers, or employees for far too long. Whether what appears to be stealing the ideas for their products and design like the pouches, not allowing people to set prices lower elsewhere even on their own websites, all the data that you collect, the way that you treat your warehouse workers, your anti-union approach to business, drivers having to pee in bottles, or a number of other things. Take your pick. Amazon is by far one of the worst and most predatory companies. Even your logo looks like an evil grin. Hopefully you get broken up.

    @StephenJ_Caruso @ThePatHenderson Patrick is right. The old concept of having servers on-site is on the way out. If those server farms you speak of still exist I would say the physical size and number of servers have decreased by a huge amount maybe 90%. Virtualization and SAAS have replaced many of those old servers and are being hosted in data centers. I have lived in server rooms since before Y2K. Servers became much more powerful and one of those servers could host hundreds of the older servers virtually. Instead of sitting in a server room in front on "my server" I would sit at a desk outside and see the same exact thing. Around 2010 I started to see those servers disappear as Amazon started hosting the virtual machines. At my desk or mostly at home I would see the same thing on my screen but it was now hosted in a data center and this explains the huge growth we are seeing.

    THE NINTH LABOUR "The man with his back turned is Heracles, standing by his ship, waiting to be handed a belt that its owner is unbuckling for him" She is the queen of the Amazons, a people of women warriors living on the northern shore of the Black Sea The belt was a gift from her father, the god of war. Whoever wears it leads the whole nation The daughter of the king Heracles was serving wanted it. So he was sent across the sea to fetch it The queen came down to the harbour and asked him why he had come. When he told her, she agreed to hand it over. No fight, no bargain. But Hera, the goddess who spent his whole life trying to ruin him, took the shape of an Amazon and moved through the crowd saying the strangers were carrying the queen off The whole nation armed itself, got on horses and came down at the haảbour He saw them coming at him with weapons and thought he had been set up. He killed her, stripped the belt off the body, fought the rest of them, and sailed away

    Amazon is officially shutting down Mechanical Turk after 21 years.  When Jeff Bezos launched it in 2005, he called it "artificial artificial intelligence" a marketplace where companies paid micro-cents to real humans to complete digital tasks machines couldn't touch, like identifying objects in photos or transcribing audio.  The ironic plot twist that killed it: Researchers discovered that up to 46% of the human workers were secretly using ChatGPT and local LLMs to do the work for them.  AI was paying humans to act like computers, but the humans ended up paying AI to act like humans acting like computers. With the data feedback loop thoroughly poisoned and modern labeling platforms taking over, Amazon is pulling the plug. End of an era for the internet's weirdest gig economy.

    Amazon is a net debt company. Naturally, it's a company with a free cash flow deficit. This is the way Amazon has grown up until now, but the difference from the past is that back then, the online platform itself was so innovative and outstanding that as long as they pulled in funds through debt, they could achieve massive growth, but now, even if they pull in funds, there are way too many competitors and no significant differentiation between them, so it's questionable whether it'll go well.... Plus, if they issue corporate bonds, I think there'll be chaos with the bonds.🤔

    @MatthewBerman @LLMJunky @bot Best use case is a chief of staff for a developer with a 5 year old going back to school. I don’t need a bot that shops on Amazon. I need one that stops me from being the middleman between GitHub and kindergarten. In the morning it checks GitHub and my email, tells me which PRs actually need me, if CI is broken, and drafts replies in my voice. Nothing goes out unless I say so. If a meeting is going to make me late for pickup, I want to know before I find out the hard way. At night it reads the kindergarten emails. Forms, supplies, allergy notes, who picks him up. One simple list. It puts the dates on the family calendar and invites my partner. It never writes to the teacher, never signs, never pays. After he is asleep I get twenty minutes. Either it quizzes me on the PR I didn’t finish, or it helps me explain whatever he asked at dinner in words a 5 year old actually gets. Grok puts it in front of me. I decide. That is the hour I want back.
