First of many outages as they realize how much cash they are burning and can't stay afloat.

My company locked down our AI models to tech leads and chief engineers because the average user could save a lot more money by just using Google.

Good. Let’s hope it stays down.

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 3 points 37 minutes ago

Oh, well...

[–] tordenflesk@lemmy.world 6 points 1 hour ago

OH NO!, Anyway...

"it's not just you"? It's not even me. I wonder how many complaints there were - would be a good metric of actual usage

Rabbit: 2, spicy hay: 0!

tf you mean "it's not just me" never have never will. Entirely local I'm good with, data mines run by racist pedophiles is a pretty easy nope for me. Can you say the same?

Stop encouraging it.

It’d be great if it didn’t though.
