Not going to disagree with the tough world out there, I'm just going to suggest / ask a few things that are at least somewhat in your realm of control that might help.
- If you are willing to divulge this information - how much are you making at your current job, how much do you pay for rent and what are your expenses?
- Do you have any family members or friends you can reach out for support?
- What does the cost of living look like in your area? Any other options?

I do think it's a useful distinction considering open models can be more than 100B+ nowdays and GPT4 is rumored to be 1.7T params. Plus this class of models are far more likely to be on-device.
It's not a LLM, it's a much smaller model (~3B) which is closer to what Microsoft labels as a SLM (Small Language Models, e.g. MS Phi-3 Mini).

It's server-based so you need to be online to play. However you can pretty much play it solo without interacting with other players (which is how I generally play it, save the occasional events and challenges).
They've added significant amount of content post-launch which includes new locations, NPCs, missions etc so it's not too bad, although I would say NPCs aren't as well put together as other Fallout games.
ASUS is terrible not because they make bad products (in fact many of them are good), they are terrible because of their horrendous support.
There is no shortage of customer service horror stories because of this company. I would not give them money.
Great that ASUS is helping handheld PC gaming advance but from a consumer perspective, I cannot in good conscience recommend anyone buying ASUS products.
Their customer service is legendary for being abysmal and for something like the Ally you need good support.
I'm in the same boat but having a blast with FO76. I'm glad I waited since the rocky launch back in 2018 - while the game is still far from perfect, it's a lot of fun to play and Bethesda did a good job fixing up the game.
Sure but Google Search has been crappy for many quarters.
I'm not saying thats how it should be, I'm just pointing out what is.
I get your point but from a business perspective Google is doing pretty well (see last quarterly earning and they announced dividends for the first time). It's good to be a shareholder and from that perspective the CEO is doing a good job.
Time and time again markets have shown, within reason, poor user experience and anti-consumer policies do not negatively impact stock price.
It's probably the best and fastest "AI-powered search" I've tried so far. Think of it as a search engine on steroids, which can handle complex questions and give you tailored responses. It's also one of the few that really jumped out of the "text-based" chat format and really embraced more modern multimedia interface.
Simple solution, spend 1 second and decide to consciously ignore guy on internet for the rest of your life.
Works wonders for mental and physical health, zero downsides!
100%. The truth is hard to swallow but I've already seen people displaced by AI tech in other professions. It's no leap at all to think this could happen in the arts and film industry soon.
Also I don't understand the notion of "humans can do x so AI can't replace us". Fact is AI only needs to do 20-30% of what humans can do to put a ton of us out of a job. And it's a bit delusional to think one is immune just because they studied "cinematography".
Yeah I really feel bad for her, nobody deserves this
Hey, you do you, but a great example of being in denial and exactly what people should not be doing. Everyone should be thinking about how to reposition themselves to ride this technological wave to success, and not turn a blind eye and be washed away like the parent poster above.
"Near future" and "foreseeable future" is constrained only by imagination and can happen sooner than you think.
A false sense of security is worse than no security at all.
When the AI workforce breaks through the arts and film industry, what makes you think you're the one holding the keys and calling the shots on AI? Simply because you studied cinematography?
The point is the scale of the impact will likely be substantial and many potentially will be displaced. I would argue you should be studying this shift rigorously instead of being dismissive to give yourself the advantage.
Your perspective is very black or white. This tech can have a HUGE impact on human and our endeavors without needing to replace us.
