Arrogant Big Tech Is Realizing Money Can't Buy Success

Have Companies & The US Government Pay You!
app.silomarkets.com/launch
FAANG should probably give up on trying to win AI. This might sound like a controversial statement at first glance but when you take a look at the facts, it makes a lot of sense. You see, past performance has been clouding the judgment of these big tech giants. Since they were able to make it big in search social media or email, they think that they can also make it big in AI as long as they spend enough money. But, the reality is that most of these big tech companies haven’t launched a successful hero product in over a decade and the reason is obvious. It’s simply extraordinarily difficult to replicate the success of something like KZbin, Facebook, or WhatsApp. Not to mention, people aren’t exactly fond of these companies or their shady behavior when it comes to privacy and monopolization. This isn’t to say that big tech should leave the AI scene completely though. A smarter choice, however, would be to play a background support role and become a backbone of the industry instead of trying to create the next big thing. This video explains why FAANG is losing in the AI race and how they may be able to turn things around by slightly shifting their focus.

These companies aren't trying to answer the question of what customers want from them, they're just trying to fight each other for control of their customers.

[@Bancheis]

True. Companies that get big like this tend to forget what made them successful in the first place. A hard working and dedicated team with leadership that shows loyalty to them working on a product designed to appeal to the desires of their customer base. The larger they get, the more they bring in people and ask "How can we get this to people who are not yet customers?" instead of asking "How can we continue to appeal to our customers so they tell others how great our product is and market it for us?" Seriously, make a good product and it sells itself. You don't need to then dump millions into marketing, you just need to play to your strengths and let the work speak for itself. For example, Pepsi and Coca-Cola. For a long time, the soda giants were battling with each other over TV commercials and product placement, trying to appeal to their competitors customer base... but in the end, they realized everyone out there knows them already. Everyone out there either likes a specific brand, dislikes one of them, or just doesn't care which one they get. Restaurants have one or the other and are unlikely to change, and a Pepsi fan is not going to change his mind because he saw a commercial either. This is why you barely see any advertisement anymore for these things. Twitter wasn't successful because of marketing and convincing people to use it, it was successful because they listened to their customers and gave them what they wanted. Remember when messages were limited to 140 characters? The customers demanded more, and they doubled the length. This change alone brought in a large portion of people who had either quit or were on the fence because they could not express themselves. Their downfall and reason they sold was because they lost sight of this vision, and could no longer accurately give the users what they wanted. You could even say they went too far and started giving in to demands from small groups of users with loud voices rather than supporting the majority of users, and that twisted the space into a warzone because things were changing that the average user didn't want or care about. They started using anti-consumer practices against the everyman while all they cared about were their super popular and wealthy users rather than the majority which outweighs the few.

They've fallen for the idea that people never know what they want and need to be told it

[@JessicaPradoHanson]

@@maudleyFYI I learned the hard way that people that think this think slavery is a normal part of life they are entitled to exploit. More of us are in jobs that fit the modern day slavery metrics than we realize. When I was sex trafficked I went to look it up and fount out that I worked one intellectual slave job and another labor slave job that led to me being homeless and sex trafficked. I was shocked to learn that right now there are around 50 million slaves on earth that we estimate. During ALL 400 years of the Atlantic slave trade there were estimated 12-14 million slaves trafficked. It is unreal that they did this while brainwashing most of us to think slavery was over. They really did move the chains from bodies to minds and it is time we break those chains! ⛓️

[@Electric_]

I worked for a tech giant for a very long time, and Product was so slow and bureaucratic that small companies with 1/10th the development team were able to code circles around them and overtake them. I watched with amazement as a startup competitor came out with in-demand feature after feature while our Product team coded things no one asked for or wanted, and took eons to do it. I feel like Musk has somewhat cracked the code for avoiding this by slashing Twitter down significantly and orienting it like a startup with a new mission. But most big tech companies can’t do that. They should play supporting roles in other tech, but once they start trying to get directly involved in something else they usually fail. They also have to keep their Product team fresh and avoid bloat. Bloat can be useless developers or simply useless job roles. All bloat adds time and cost to innovation.

In my modest opinion as a big fan of Ready Player One, I LOVE the concept behind it, but I just think Zucc did the worst possible thing - set on fire so much money and had to show for it something that looked like 3 people in a garage with a potato pc and 3000 dollars would make. Maybe starting smaller, making something less ambitious but incredibly good might have saved Meta a shit ton of money while still creating something truly impressive. I know one day a big brain gigachad will come and create The Oasis, but till then, we’ll keep getting disappointed, ig. Won’t even get to see the Zucc vs Musk fight, that was another letdown from our reptil friend

[@Xazamas]

Most charitable explanation is that Zucc's Metaverse has been ridiculously future-proofed and built for ability to scale, all the money went to the back-end and front-end is a crappy placeholder. But this raises the obvious question, why not let the thing cook first before showing it to the public? you can only have one first impression.

[@HishighnessMrL]

Zuckerberg simply had to create the infrastructure for this concept and allowed for individuals to come in and handle the whole direction of meta from design to app interconnectivity. Meta should've been a better Roblox and their focus should've been growing alongside creators who took up the mantle of creating on their platform. A Ready player one like platform will come to exist but it's going to come slowly and with a lot of cultural milestone driven by consumers and creatives not platforms trying to manufacture that reality.

Great video, as always. I will say though, Google is MUCH MORE risk-averse when it comes to AI. But make no mistake, they’re ABSOLUTELY a leader in AI research and capability. I mean…they LITERALLY CREATED the Transformer at Google Labs. In fact, by releasing the paper “Attention is all you need” and gave it out for free, they effectively enabled EVERY SINGLE STARTUP that utilizes LLMs today. Google Bard is shit…no doubt about it. But it’s nowhere even close to being powered by their most powerful model. Not to mention, they are set to release Gemini, the first LLM built from scratch for multi-modality in the next few months. ..and Gemini 2 is already reportedly in training. I guess my point is…no one can sleep on the literal creator of the technology that is causing all this mass hysteria.

Truly. Money can't always buy you genuine happiness. It's fleeting, and I mean to say money in this context. People realize it a little too late that being materialistic has its own consequences.

[@KC-zw4mm]

The word "materialistic" is really misused. Life is changing overtime in a fast way, and every X amount of time, another product becomes a must to live. You'll be at a huge disadvantage if you don't purchase the next essential thing. Like, everyone should have a smartphone, but you don't have to buy a new one every year.

[@MyVanir]

People always forget to attach "overly" before "materialistic". Life is always improved with money - people who claim otherwise are simply spoiled by already having it. The crux is in knowing when to cut back on getting more money and to switch to actually enjoying the benefits it produces in your life.

[@shadowninja6689]

Google may have worked on AI first, but they failed to be first to the market, and they flopped very badly after rushing to get it out to the market. And worse yet, they proved everyone wrong who claimed that Google was years ahead of the competition and just didn't want to release it yet because it might be a threat to Google Search.

[@haydenbicky9690]

Yup, This video talked a lot about how people were only clowning on Bard because it looked like a copy cat and I'm like l, dude have you actually USED bard? I've used it since launch day and it is nowhere near as good as chatGPT. Like you said Google made bad decisions with AI, and that includes putting out their transformers research for free, which is now the foundation for openAIs entire approach to AI.

This was a very different take than what I've been hearing other places. It seems well thought out and makes sense to me. I appreciate the research you did here. That stat on how much Google has been spending on AI for the last decade is shocking 😯. Nice video!

[@2memeornot224]

Your right the titans are throwing a lot of money at it, for diminishing results. However for companies that collect data, using ai is very profitable because you now are able to figure out what the person is thinking about much clearer. Imagine if someone using chat gpt on writing a report and the data is then processed by Microsoft for providing ads to that person when they use edge. Or if it's research related companies would like to hire people who do that type of research like pharmaceuticals so they can send job ads to those who use ai assistant for specific jobs.

[@LogicallyAnswered]

Using ai for analytics and launching ai products are different though :)

[@mrw0lf364]

I'm sorry but you missed the point. It's not the bad reputation of the company that impedes Bard or Threads to thrive, it's the quality of the product. Gpt4 is WAY BETTER than Bard, that's it. Twitter is WAY MORE POPULAR than Threads, that's it.

[@rayoflight62]

The way AI is structured, i.e. make bots, train bots, promote/demote bots after a test, rinse & repeat - is very limiting. People recognise that the army of bots which are assigned to solving a task - operate following a black-box model, and that is true. The black box hides the topology of the network where a sequence of logic decisions bring to the final result; this structure is very limiting, because you can correct any error exclusively by trial and error. This has never happened in the history of human engineering; sooner or later, engineers first devised an empirical method to calculate a machine or device, and successively they always found an analytical methodology for locating the proper solutions. Arrays and matrices of bots don't scale up very well; the telephone engineers of 1920 faced the same problem when the telephone network expanded first locally, and then internationally. The future of AI will require that software engineers join forces with mathematicians, and together they intervene inside the black boxes. Thank you Harry for this video on AI. In parallel to what you said in the video, I like to add that the AI development is akin to the Race of the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland...

Then those people just end up harming themselves and others. Life is always healthier when things are more equitable so people are treated as equal and meritocracy can happen. But this is crony capitalism where criminals push any healthy people out that they can.

No geofencing, no 'control center' (ran by humans), no lidar, only 8+ cameras and neural nets. This architecture has practically no ceiling to how good it can get. Biggest constraint going forward will be compute power (i.e. Tesla is buying NVIDIA chips like crazy, and designing their own for Dojo).

Especially the ones who don't want a social Internet orofile. It is doable that something takes over the hype, but it becomes less likely as we go forward. Too many, too much big changes. It literally burnes through options. It is quite inconsiderate to expect your user base to follow you around in every wimp. You can have a huge base where most people are sleeping accounts. The USSR base has another problem. Tell me which users spend 1500+ monthly on apps? So you can say that big tech has trouble with conversion, but that's entirely due to distorting markets and money distribution. Why should it matter where the money comes from? A Dollar is a Dollar, consumers or businesses should not matter. Pouring out products, ridicules the user. It are mostly gaaget based. As if for example parents can play their way raising kids. Real consumer focused needs is something entirely different. At some point you can't take these giants seriously with their combined financial and intellectual power, they are still disconnected from reality.

Google's resilience when they believe in a product is something that shouldn't be underestimated.

[@kentpirate2411]

Very interesting. There’s one huge financing not mentioned though which is the tax money (taken from people who actually work for their living) which is given to these companies in power to secure the information. All adding to a false economic continuum.

Can someone explain what a FB poke was?

[@theobserver3753]

Threads is one of the best examples why it wad better for Elon to buy twitter than create a new one.

[@goggins_amazing]

Finally, someone said it. It's not easy to migrate a loyal userbase from a competitor unless you are providing something truly mindblowing

[@hiskishow]

They are spending money on salaries of people, just like any good company with loads of money. If anything they should spend more money.

[@PajaKulebrc]

With regards to Microsoft and Google shifting towards services such as cloud - who would have thought that controlling the infrastructure is a good idea?

[@harryd8419]

Hey dude, in case you didn't realise, your audio is out of sync with the video of you speaking slightly

[@apc9714]

I hope google AI efforts weren't just focused on a chat not, but will allow them to expand in new markets selling to corporate America (ex, machine learning applied to biotech, research and others). I think Amazon might be the worst offender, trying to compete and dominate any market in existence at once.

[@Hexspa]

Threads is neat because it feels smaller.

[@AugerHybrid]

Why the YT video player must have rounded corners...

[@FantasmaNaranja]

the thing is that AI can only differ so much from one another if they're both being trained on the same data (all of the internet that you can scrape)

[@ZeeengMicro]

Is that you talking in blue background? I feel like the audio isn't sync very well and it makes this weird effect. It doesn't feel like the voice is coming from you. I thought it was a stock video for a moment.

[@innocento.1552]

08:40 I was just wondering "what is a better investment: hosting a world cup with that money or inventing BARD?" 🤔🤔

[@kentpirate2411]

There's a petty aspect to big tech that not a lot of people realise. If you comment online against them they go after you. You won't see that they're going after you and you might think it's bizare that you have nothing and might even be unemployed yet to have them going after you is what I call real power. The positions and money is all from people's government taxes too. Plus ai has occurred unexpectedly years ago without development or building towards.

[@undivided_unified]

@5:52 "vocal minority" well played sir

[@lexd5136]

Is it just me or the lip sync voice over is off with the video? seems like the video was recorded separately to the voice over.. and I couldn't stop noticing it

[@BAMvideos12]

I highly doubt anyone at Nvidia ever planned on making their own ai. They're a semiconductor company, not software. t someone in the industry.

[@robintitus4058]

Loved the call / put analogy 👍

[@LogicallyAnswered]

Ah, wasn't sure how many people would get the analogy. Glad to see you liked it!

[@dysfunc121]

If the rumors are correct, it would appear rather then direct competition in AI, Meta aims to improve their own and utilize open source communities to help test and improve their own stuff, some of it is perhaps out to make openAI's framework of selling tokens to use the models, obsolete; "According to an initial rumor, Llama 3 will be able to compete with GPT-4, but will still be freely available under the Llama license."

[@ea_naseer]

Yeah Llama 2 runs on an M1 Mac so I think Meta's game is something similar to Android.

[@vincentleong0511]

One thing is for sure is that Apple has to improve Siri.

[@bazukamimi5721]

Bard should come up with FREE text to drawing or sketch to precise architectural drawing functionality for instance, if it wants to turn this chatgpt upside down

[@leonoradompor8706]

I love CapCut, thanks Chinese business owners

[@reggiebenes2916]

I met Mark Zuckerberg. He stared at my feet way more than is socially acceptable. It was awkward. I'll never go to Old Navy during a hoodie sale again.

[@Andres-Estrella]

I don't buy that big tech can't or have it harder to "win" AI, but everything else regarding failed projects is very interesting

[@MVera1044]

They are buying network effects, new projects have no network effects
