The world is so cooked. It is so unbelievably over. Looks at most viewed Yup it is over.

You missed the keyword "mostly".

There are 100 different sources to learn from. And they certainly aren't as good as one another.

There being 100 different ways to learn though is questionable.

Learning is a loop of reading/listening > applying/questioning. The rest is gobbledygook.

And when I say learning, I mean understanding the material, not just remembering a bunch of information for an exam.

Every learning method you can think of has been thought of before and all variations have been implemented in classrooms throughout time. It is mostly pseudo-science. You either put in the effort to learn and struggle until you succeed or you don't. There is no secret sauce.

I don't miss university at all. In hindsight most of it was a scam and I learnt most things on my own either by opening a book, starting my own project or through research.

You don't need a 50 point list to learn anything even to a proficient level. Exams are bullshit.

They are expanding into the adult market because they are running out of ideas. I think common sense is enough to decide what is what here.

Best case: Hallucination

Worst case (more probable): Lying

You are telling me a language model trained on Reddit can't solve novel problems? Shocking.

Edit: we are in peak damage control phase of the hype cycle.

>Carl Jung and others who explore archetypes and symbols understands this well.

Anyone who dates and has sex understands this. Masculine energy attracts feminine energy. You don't need a PHD in it.

Sometimes I wonder if microplastics are a bug or a feature for companies selling us food that contain them. Same with a lot of other products that mess up your hormones.

We are in the late stage of the hype cycle for LLMs where the comments are becoming progressively ridiculous like for cryptocoins before the market crashed. The other day a user posted that LLMs are the new transistors or electricity.

The vague snarky response is very telling. Some of you clearly have a personal stake at this but if I was you I would start selling those Nvidia stocks.

The extreme majority are not plus users. Most people do not care whether they are using GPT-5 or GPT-5 mini because most users are just people who want something like a holiday itinerary or a gift idea. You live in a bubble that's why you can't see it.

For most people it is just a search engine that allows them to avoid webpages that have turned hostile. The second biggest users are probably students who want their homework done for them.

So yes there is a market but that doesn't match the level of investment. A bubble doesn't mean the product is useless.

>The current AI wave has been compared (by sama) to electricity and sometimes transistors. AI is just going to be in all the products.

Sorry, but you have to be beyond thick to believe any of this.

Societal collapse is on its way. The first domino to fall will be the AI bubble bursting which will lead to massive economic problems. The rest will follow after as society is already a giant powder keg with a wannabe dictator in charge.

Yup, I have now observed this a few times go up and down a couple of times. Very strange behaviour surrounding this without any negative response. Society is cooked.

Very interesting that this got downvoted. Shouldn't even be controversial on HN. There might be an actual cult around this drug and not just a moderator issue.

We are fully in the grifting stage of society. No one wants to work anymore and everyone wants to invest in imaginary outcomes (cryptocoins (most of which no one uses with little to no real use cases) and now AGI (science fiction)). Once the stock market crashes within an already low trust brittle society I imagine that there will be catastrophic outcomes. Maybe I am just a doomer who needs to touch grass but maybe not.

Of course there will always be a mixture of things. Some of these people attacking could just be insecure people trying to justify their life choices through strangers (ton of those across the internet) but it is at such a scale and consistency that the stakes seem higher than that.

There is a popular subreddit for people with hair loss ("tressless" with almost 500k members) and anyone who recommends the drug Finasteride (banned in Sweden and full of bad side effects e.g. depression, erectile dysfunction, muscle atrophy) gets upvoted and anyone who recommends against it gets their post removed from the front page of the subreddit and a squad of people attacking you. It is obvious some pharmaceutical company is behind this.

Breaking News: If you leave your child on TikTok unregulated you are an idiot.

The world is hostile and full of exploitation. It is no different on the internet.

>There's a reason why 'AI = Actually Indians' is a meme everywhere on the internet, and it isn't racism, it's just people observing the reality around them."

Both can be true. The Indian takeover of tech probably also fuels racism.

Not surprising the country is heading down this direction. Once worked at a school briefly, everything is heavily monitored and low trust. If you are new you have to show a certificate showing you have nothing on your record and ID such as a passport. Then you need a badge that you need to wear at all times or else have a staff member with you at all times. You are never allowed to use your phone unless in staff room. You must sign in every time you enter the building and sign out when you leave. Anything can be said about you and land you in HR. Everyone is like a walking CCTV.

This is the future for broader society as the government has no trust in its citizens and believes the only solution is to monitor and control. The above will just be extrapolated where it can.

>Oh yes it is.

>It's enhacing the capabilties of radiologists.

So it is not replacing radiologists?

Everyone is aware: https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/18/middleeast/pakistan-saudi...

This just led to a defence pact with Pakistan (with nuclear weapons) and Saudi Arabia. Turkey is significantly ramping up domestic military production. The scale and threats will only increase as long as Israel continues attacking several countries.

>That was a young Gazan girl

Are we sure we are talking about the same child who got blown up? There is quite a few.
