I think this can’t be said enough and can’t be repeated enough times. We are pouring massive shared resource and social wealth into these companies. They shouldn’t be putting all their compute into prioritizing ads you see, vibe coding slop and hacking websites and giving excuses to companies to layoff workers. They should be solving global warming, fusion energy, and finding new materials that are cheaper and better to lower costs for everyone. This lack of focus is a real and pressing problem and in many ways we are part of the problem because we are not demanding and finding ways to force them to work on the right things. Capitalism is failing hugely here. At this scale, these companies are nation state infrastructure and should be benefiting everyone instead of pointlessly and destructively pushing up GDP on pointless bullshit products. submitted by /u/kaggleqrdl
