    I’ll never forget the time Gueseppi needed investment in his AI. And I needed investment in my AI. So we invested in each other’s AI at the same time. Can you imagine that, me investing in his AI, while he invested in mine? What year was that…?

    So that means they can pay the fines for pirating all the source material right?

    Oh yeah?

    And when will this deal be be finalized?

    Because pushing a press release to juice the markets is a lot different than Anthropic actually finding $200 billion in their office couch cushions.

    This seems like a circle jerk, but with everyone involved it’s less of a double circularly linked list and more of a map. A map jerk.

      The whole US economy is just 4 robots jerking each other off and handing the same $20 bill back and forth

      More of a middle out jerk. It’s more efficient.

        I think something we didn’t consider is that a node can only link to two other nodes. Because two hands. And a node can only be linked to by another node, because one penis.
