    AI is starting to show that it isn’t worth the investment and they are STILL building more?!? WTF is going on?

      Because I do not think AI is the actual end goal. I think the actual end goal is cloud computing. They want everyone to use thin clients and connect to their data center instead of using a pc at home.

        I think the real goal is the billionaires uploading their minds to achieve immortality. Definitely impossible, but that’s what I think.

          That was my theory to why Zuck was so interested in his Metaverse. Every billionaire is planning some sort of post-life or extending their lives one way or another. The same way kings and emperors of history have.

            Chinese emperors often consumed mercury in pursuit of eternity. Zuck and friends want to print themselves onto silicon. Coincidence?
