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.

We built the entire modern world on the assumption that the internet is always available. It's not.

Tipu.

UMNO sekarang ditubuhkan pada 1988 oleh Dr.M untuk kill off geng Team B. Memang dendam pun, sebab dia exclude member2 Team B.

Takda raja or istana yang terbabit. Yang ada, Agong Tanpa Tengkolok je.

Kalau tak baca sejarah, memang senang kena tipu dek macai UMNO.

Hehehehehhe.
Sebagai orang yang kerja dalam bidang psikologi kekeluargaan ni memang merisaukan tau.

I am afraid because I see society starts to look at children like they are a burden. And apa-apa kita buat untuk anak itu kena dapat reward. And suami seolah-olah WAJIB bagi reward walaupun tak mampu. Sedangkan suami jaga kebajikan dia. Atas sebab tak bagi reward, dicanang satu dunia.

Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rojiun

Being pregnant, go through delivery process is described as "wahn ala wahn". Allah iktiraf kesusahan itu. And parenting is the hardest job I would say. Do you think any human can repay that? Nope. Only Allah can.

Ihsan suami mestilah penting. Dan menjadi isteri/ibu bersyukur juga PENTING.

Do you see the problem?

> RAC - Train tracks

KKR covers:

very bizarre to hear someone bragging about their incompetencies 😃

I joined the company in season 6 as the 8th member. At our peak, the team grew to 10.

[null @aaghep]

…and finally, Ee. Even the season 7 characters, Annisa, Azim, and Aiman didn’t stay for long.

It's a bit sad, but the show goes on

[null @aaghep]

A farewell not like the others, the last standing character from the early season of the company's journey finally moving on 🫡

At the moment, most of what we see are LLMs and RAG systems. They’re useful, sure, but their use cases are still limited and only benefit a small group of people. The question is whether subscription revenue alone can cover how expensive these systems are to run.

[null @aaghep]

AI is in a bubble right now. It’ll only work once there’s a real breakthrough, something that actually changes the world, has a benefit to humanity, and brings in serious money. That also depends on whether infrastructure and energy can keep up.

Saja sembang-sembang.

Diaorang ada cakap harga Myvi sepatutnya RM25k je. Kalaulah harga tu (dan harga kereta murah lain), mungkin satu rumah akan ada 4 kereta dah. Masalah parking kat sana sini di kawasan perumahan bandar dan jalan raya pasti makin sesak.

Sebenarnya ramai tak ambil kira, kita punya tempoh pinjaman, interest rate dan purchasing power kita.

Indonesia dan Thailand, majoriti loan kereta max 5 tahun je untuk kereta. 7 tahun jarang sangat. Interest rate pun lagi tinggi dari kita. Mereka juga wajib bayar 20% downpayment (Indonesia).

Jadi bulanan biasa hampir 2x ganda dari kita. Kira-kira mudah, kalau kereta harga RM50k, dan 5 tahun loan, sebulan RM1k installment.

Maksudnya walaupun murah, mungkin ramai tak mampu juga di sana.

Itu belum ambil kira average net income kita. Dengan Thailand pun haritu ada baca data kita dah 1:2. Apatah lagi Indonesian.

Maksudnya?

Kalau Vios Thailand RM67k vs Vios Malaysia RM90k.
Rakyat Thailand perlukan 30 bulan income nak bayar RM67k tu. Malaysian hanya perlukan 22 bulan income nak bayar kereta RM90k tu. Sebab ada perbezaan ekonomi dan purchasing power.

Vietnam lagi teruk. Kereta murah tapi interest cecah 10% variable.

Tambah tolak, sebenarnya lebih kurang sama je. Part nak balance infra jalan raya dan income kerajaan (Malaysia RM10 billion dari cukai kereta) tu yang ramai tak faham dan nampak.

Kita nampak mampu sebab ada loan kereta sampai 9 tahun dan 0% deposit. Rasanya takde negara yang buat begitu kot di dunia. Sebab tu rasa mampu sebab negara kita mudah berhutang.

Kalau kereta lagi murah 20%, tapi max loan 5 tahun (aku paling setuju ni) dan kena 20-30% deposit, baru balance semula pandangan masing-masing.

Itulah.

an old friend in san fransisco relied heavily on porn and constant stimulation... music always playing, phone always in hand, never a quiet moment.

on the surface, everything looked fine... he had a sharp mind, had good routines and was ambitious

but spend enough time around him and you’d notice that… he couldn’t tolerate stillness, deep conversations drained him and anything that required patience felt unnecessary.

he wasn’t addicted to noise, he was addicted to distraction and over time, it dulled his ability to focus, to connect, to sit with discomfort long enough to grow.

the dangerous part is how normal it looks, porn doesn’t crash your life… it just slowly rewires you to avoid depth while convincing you everything is fine.

Increase salaries and regulate developers so Malaysians can own homes

🇲🇾 Gomen : ❌❌🤢🤮

Keep Malaysians homeless/ in debt and encourage rich foreigners to sell overpriced houses Malaysians can never afford and maximise developers profits

🇲🇾 Gomen: 😀👍💰💰🤑

Sebenarnya, jika kita sedar betapa sukarnya menjadi orang yang taat, kita pasti tidak akan mengutuk pelaku maksiat dan pendosa.

Sebab perjalanan hidup ini panjang. Manusia boleh sahaja berubah jadi baik bila-bila masa. Mungkin mereka jauh lagi soleh dan banyak amalan kebaikan dari kita sebelum mati.

Semoga Allah terima semua amalan kebaikan kita yang sedikit di bulan Ramadan ini.

Mungkin kita je yang rasa banyak. Tetapi rupanya ada ibadah dan amalan yang dibaluti rasa riak dan ujub yang menyebabkan ia tidak diterima Allah.

Semoga kita istiqamah melakukan kebaikan dan berada di jalan yang lurus sampai mati, Ameen!
