Sorry, but there's no way you're building a billion mile long ship for sixteen dollars

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

@davidu you're not supposed to be able to pay debt with debt so they dont allow that. I have heard of people using workarounds to buy gift visa cards with a CC and somehow move the balance to their checking account to get some points but it seems like a PITA.

@TheCinesthetic Carrie Coon carried the whole series. Norah Durst is one of the most well-rounded characters of all time - and performed by the best of the best!

[cinesthetic. @TheCinesthetic]

The Leftovers (2014) is one of those rare shows that somehow leaves you emotionally exhausted and completely in awe at the same time. No other series captured grief, faith, and the need for human connection quite like this.
