Yeah sorry but if all our basic needs could be provided via AI and Robots then there is going to be an increase in immigration.
Some to escape, but the rest because with basic needs fulfilled they will have to availability to travel for personal pleasure and such.
Or you really don’t understand the profession in question.
The Tech bros are not the standard of a Programmer (if they even are programmers by trade to begin with.)
And ass lawyers that defend the corporates and dictators are not the standard of a lawyer by Trade.
It’s Capitalism that is to blame as things like AI are profit generators
Oh indeed that there is certainly a big flaw and I hope the Wikipedia volunteers can counter that
Not when the source is paying that part of the bill, AKA the AI company (or in this case Microsoft.)
“You can plug our site into your AI models. But you need to pay the estimated cost of the increased traffic plus some odd percentage.”
I am honestly only guessing myself since greed doesn’t make sense for a non-profit foundation that is funded entirely by good will donations
I am referring to the reply comment from surewhynotlem. They say that cost is 180 million while Wikipedia has 170 million on hand. That is a 10 million deficit.
While probably not enough to shut down the site it is still operating in the red.
Where I was going is explaining how it’s possibly not greed. Just the foundation looking for another revenue source that theoretically would not ruin the site.
That alt being a deal that gets Wikipedia more traffic
Well as mentioned Wikipedia seems to be in the red and not making enough donations to pay for the expenses. So maybe the foundation is thinking it would help with the deficit.
Also chances are Microsoft will instruct Co-Pilot to prioritize Wikipedia whenever it scours the internet for information.
Think it like that eye rolling Google paying Firefox to be the default search engine deal.
You do know Programers are behind the Fediverse correct?
It’s a non-profit foundation with the majority being volunteers. If greed was the case one then would have to ask is why not just go ahead and inject ads
Now if GW made nice and let fan works be allowed

Given how the stock collapsed and is stabilizing back up Trump probably does mean to back off. If there is anything consistent it’s that he backs out when the pay day doesn’t look forthcoming
