    So. Everybody knows that "AI" is the future and inevitable and everyone loves it.

    That is why Microsoft and Google are paying influencers between 400K and 600K to sell their AI products:

    But hey, those are very serious businesses, they must have done their research and run their cost-benefit analyses to ensure they spend their money wisely, right? Quote:

    "Creators can charge up to $100,000 per post, Eckstein said.
    “Some of these bigger companies have so much money to spend,” he said, “that they don’t care to negotiate.”"

      @tante Meanwhile, IBM is already marketing „quantum-enabled AI“. Because executives from lots of companies believe they want it.

        @tante capex investments grabbing headlines (which they’ll never recoup), but the ongoing investment in product, sales and marketing is probably greater than the revenue they’re getting. Just a huge hole that they’re trying to dig themselves out of by adding more shovels

                        @tante Indeed, but it's probably safe to assume part of that recklessness in spending is caused by their jump in valuation from the bubble

                        It's stupid anyway, though, I don't see how that 100,000$ given to a YouTuber could provide a substantial return on investment

                              @tante People have to believe in a product for it to be profitable. Influencers have a lot of impact on society. 600k is a small price for advertising some development that has cost billions.

                              The worst thing that could happen for them is that ai gets rejected like the mini-disc.

                                  @tante they have a reason to try to speed things up since I think many, professionals at least, are beginning to see right through the hype. Babysat machine generate text is not #ai. When even the biggest players resort to six-figure influencer deals instead of letting the tech speak for itself, you know the emperor has no clothes.

                                    @tante Indeed, but it's probably safe to assume part of that recklessness in spending is caused by their jump in valuation from the bubble

                                    It's stupid anyway, though, I don't see how that 100,000$ given to a YouTuber could provide a substantial return on investment

                                    I think the issue is you are applying logic to the situation.

                                        @tante they threw too much money pushing it into everything that didn't need any AI. Take Copilot in Windows, or in Office: just unnecessary.

                                        But the tools for software development, i can tell you as a software engineer, that this stuff just revolutionized our field completely. It's a tectonic activity that just changed it for good. Those who deny it are those who still haven't used it seriously and in 2-3 years will be at risk, if they don't start now.

                                          @ariarhythmic not fully true. Microsoft and Google do have the cash. Not from "AI" revenue but from all their other sources.

                                          @tante @ariarhythmic And that's the worrisome part for me. It's almost a given that most of these AI companies won't survive because they aren't profitable. But Microsoft and Google don't necessary need it to be profitable. In the end, AI will likely stick around and be controlled by one a few companies. Doesn't sound worrisome at all...
