So you're saying they might not need a new engine and all they have to do is rewrite half of the old one?

He might've borrowed them from a library.

OpenAI could've trained on borrowed ebooks as well

Also a valid solution to the poop on the carpet problem.

Just saying

Knife, scissors, stuff like that probably

Won't block YouTube ads.

lmao you're so wrong on ads being more profitable than premium, especially on a per-user basis

According to this you can expect to make around $18/1000 views. That's with 55% going to the creator and 45% to Google. Which means that Google makes around $14.5 per 1000 views.

Coincidentally, that's also rougly the price of YouTube Premium. Are you telling me that you watch a thousand videos per month?

They might be allowing them to run the boxes for free, but the ISPs are saving money on bandwidth, too.

Get enough users for the ISP to care and they'll work with you. Otherwise, you probably don't have all that many users to begin with, so the overhead that maintaining and distributing these boxes would create wouldn't be worth it anyway.

I saw a picture of the lemonade dispenser herw and the caffeine content was shown quite clearly

Yeah, fair enough I guess. Depends on her intent, which would be impossible to prove

Could be fraud, she took the money under a false premise.

Hard to say though, not a lawyer

It gives them a loot more than ad watchers though. Especially on longer videos (it's based on watch time)

Worst case, they can keep chugging along without any changes, except maybe stopping the donation "nag".

It's honestly kinda perplexing.

Everyone keeps talking about taxing the rich but when someone offers to give a nonprofit we all love a billion dollars it's suddenly the worst thing on the planet.

If the deal were real of course

Honestly, they'd be stupid not to take it.

Imagine how much you could do with a billion. It'd perpetually sustain the organization, it'd allow them to hire translators and writers, resulting in better content for all of us.

Hell, I'd take it, and 99.9% of people on this planet would too.

It's a meme

Yes, pure html pages are so much better and nicer to use!

Won't work, can't work.

There are companies which have insane revenues but tiny profits - let's say manufacturing, where you need to pay a shitton for materials and workers, just to get a bit in return.

There are also companies where the main source of income is selling people's time, say a consulting firm like McKinsey. Their income/revenue ratio is gonna be totally different from the first example.

I'm sure there are good ways to do it but this ain't one of them.

Hell yeah
