@sridharfyi Why does the investor care about a 1% shareholder? Or is there a large percentage of equity sold to these small shareholders relative to the founders ownership?

@EvanVieth I’m not sure Coleman is a positive for this offense.

@ChaseDaniel They haven’t played a very good team.

@Trace_Cohen Banking on a $10B+ exit and making the mistake that since 4 tier 1 investors are in also, that is a likely outcome.

@SillyPutty78 Well, this argument is pointless as it’s called Artificial Intelligence whether you like it or not. Which is better than Super Intelligence that the government is trying to promote.

We have record employment. There is always something to be scared of in the future. For my parents, it was the imminent threat of nuclear war. For other generations, it’s been climate change. You can’t live in fear. The only thing that will ensure the collapse of our economy and society is a declining birth rate.

[Craig Lawrence @clawrence]

I think you are confusing intelligence and consciousness. We have been using the term artificial intelligence to refer to computers for nearly a century and people understand what it means. It is not the same as human intelligence, which is why the descriptor ‘artificial’ is used. Just like artificial meat is not real meat and artificial turf is not real grass.

This seems quite bad for the US economy.

@davidubben I assume the cameras are on the side of the goalposts outside of the field goal.

@lousyapp @Owennfa True. And I didn’t resent my grandparents for the pensions they were on that were gone by the time I got into the workforce.

@kwharrison13 I guess we can still build things when we want to

@Danainhawaii Or, your uncle got hacked or phished. It happens all the time.

@Frigidlid2025 @Owennfa Congratulations, now you are the new boomer. Enjoy the next generations crapping on you.

@HearBen34135 @Owennfa Not sure how that's relevant to this thread, because income tax rates were actually higher than today back when I was in my 20's and 30's.

[Craig Lawrence @clawrence]

@hankinster @Owennfa Yep. I had a roommate up until I moved in with my now-wife. I never lived alone, having to handle a full rent or mortgage payment or utilities, groceries, etc on one income.
