that crash and burn will be the onus of the consumer not being able to consume.
we will lose access to free range computing and have to live with asking AI for permission to use the computing power and network resources to play a game or pay our bills online. And paytoll for that permission.
I brought my 2003 laptop back to life for shits and giggles recently. It’s made me realize how bloated software has become. It’s still just as usable as it was 20 years ago when you remove all the fancy crap and use programs designed for tasks rather than living in a web browser. Sure its not fast, but once I replaced the spinning drive with an ssd, it became pretty damn usable in a modern day scenario. I really thought I would just upgrade as far as I could for fun, then slap an old archived distro on there from my college days for some good old PTSD/nostalgia. But it’s actually usable so I occasionally pull it out and do stuff on it. I’m ready to slap jaunty jackalope on it and relive going to my uni’s library to write a 10 page research paper thats due the next day, but it’s still ready to rock in modern times.
It needs to crash. If it doesn’t crash soon, things will only get worse and worse for consumers. We’re already over the edge of the cliff (imo), it’s just a matter of how far we have to fall now. If it crashes hard enough, we won’t have to live with “asking AI for permission to use the computing platform”. By the way, an LLM isn’t really capable of that at the moment, and the sooner it crashes, the less likely anything like that will happen.
I can’t wait for it to crash and burn, this bubble is getting so ridiculous.

that will be the crash and burn victims here.
