This is affirmation to me that what we're seeing with AI is circular financing so that these corporations that have had so much power, retain their power. I think that the tech elite saw the writing on the wall that social media is toxic, and destructive, and it's only a matter of time before the government comes for them. SaaS is stagnating, and everything is commoditized. They needed a new spark to perpetuate their wealth and power, and they found it.

We're in a very, very scary time. I guess the upside is that future generations won't be exposed to toxic grandpas yelling about chemtrails and pizzagate. Downside is, they'll be exposed to AI deepfakes and chemical weapons.

So I worked for a year and a half at an AI startup that was way ahead of the curve on leveraging LLM's and other generative models. Like way ahead. I lost my job there months ago, but I can tell you that the AI psychosis is real and I watched it before a lot of the rest of the world. Maybe the CEO was always like this, but he went from being a likable, and liked person, to a fucking maniac. Multiple people who had worked with him for years that he brought on, were either fired or quit. One person who quit - who I would literally walk into the pits of hell for - told him straight up that he didn't know what happened to him, but he did not want to work with this version of the person he knew. I survived 3 layoffs before getting laid off, and you should see what they are producing now. If I didn't care about alienating myself from a lot of people, I'd share a link. It's honestly a mad king situation now. He's surrounded by a couple of sycophants - some of the most disliked, toxic people at the company, and who I've had the pleasure of working with - and the company is going down in flames.

I 100% can see this being the case not only with Zuck, but with many other companies. I am flabbergasted that I am a lowly peon in the machine, and yet unless I'm missing something, I seem to be a lot smarter than most of the people I see running these companies. I honestly feel like someone in the future is going to write a Greek tragedy about this time, because it's going to get real bad very soon

What's the upside of this over HighCharts which is an already mature product?
