- Comment on Netflix is starting to phase out its cheapest ad-free plan 4 days ago:
It’s because netflix’ strategy has been to use the vast amounts of analytics they have to design shows that are so incredibly specialized and focused on targeting unseen metrics that they are entirely devoid of substance.
Even buying into their logic that one could do that, they essentially overfit the data. Find a trend? More trend more betterer more moneyer. Doesn’t work very well.
- Comment on AI products like ChatGPT much hyped but not much used, study says 5 weeks ago:
“The people are just using the technology wrong. If they used it how I do and for what i do, surely they’d see how good it is for them.”
That’s cope. Plenty of worse solutions to invented problems are adopted much faster and more prolifically.
- Comment on AI products like ChatGPT much hyped but not much used, study says 5 weeks ago:
This sounds like cope.
Plenty of people have tried, I have tried repeatedly in various distant ways.
Maybe the people aren’t wrong, and chat bots are in fact just not all that useful for most people.
- Comment on AI products like ChatGPT much hyped but not much used, study says 5 weeks ago:
You’re saying people don’t use chatgpt in their daily routine because they didn’t give it a fair shot?
Not because it’s just objectively lacking in utility for the things it’s marketed for?
- Comment on Author granted copyright over book with AI-generated text—with a twist 2 months ago:
To play devils advocate, talents are things you develop with practice, if you have conditions which prevent you from developing those compared to people without those conditions and which you would like to be able to do, reasonably this is an ada accommodation.
This is a fairly well recognized accommodation to boot.

Sealion all you like, you know what’s being discussed and why. Feel free to respond when you’re willing to engage with the conversation.
- Comment on Dragon's Dogma 2 updates will give you new save option and make player dwellings available earlier 3 months ago:
Blatantly the incredible use of microtransactions in dd2 and the increasing frequency that games are monetized in general.
- Comment on Dragon's Dogma 2 updates will give you new save option and make player dwellings available earlier 3 months ago:
“You don’t have to pay for any feature! They just made not doing so arduous and inconvenient exactly as much as they think they can get away with to maximize profits in spite of objectively worse design choices and a worse experience overall!”
The conflict of interest is there, it’s impossible to pretend it doesn’t exist.
