Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Gen AI should be private, secure, local and easier to train by it's users to fit their own needs. Closest thing to this at the moment seems to be Kobold.

These "AI Computers" are a solution looking for a problem. The marketing people naming these "AI" computers think that AI is just some magic fairy dust term you can add to a product and it will increase demand.

What's the "killer features" of these new laptops, and what % price increase is it worth?

What is even the point of an AI coprocessor for an end user (excluding ML devs)? Most of the AI features run in the cloud and even if they could run locally, companies are very happy to ask you rent for services and keep you vendor locked in.
