Summary: Computer-generated junk (CG, but misframed ad infinitum as "AI") isn't particularly revolutionary or useful; it's something people get over as Microsoft services and products perish (ignore the media's Microsoft-sponsored smokescreen)
THIS was more or less expected. In an effort to distract from
this year's mass layoffs Microsoft "invested" in OpenAI and "invested" (read:
bribed!) the media for never-ending puff pieces, hype, and praise.
Are we past the fake hype? Not fully, but we're getting there.
It took nearly a week and we've checked
this page every day, expecting it would "soon" show further declines -- or figures for the month of August. We were not wrong. After about 100 checks (since the start of this month) here is what we see today:
So in the month of June the domain is said to have received 1.7 billion "visits" (requests), then 1.5 billion in July, and then just 1.4 billion last month. This is a very considerable 3-month decrease. This fall is actually longer than 3 months in duration. So how long before it falls below a billion and the company, which cannot make money (it's
losing money), declares bankruptcy? A bankruptcy
is already expected because the company floats on Microsoft's temporary money infusion, helping to fake "demand" for Azure (abandoned and unwanted workloads; idle machines without a purpose anymore). Maybe
this man will have his wish fulfilled within months.
