@bahmanm@lemmy.ml @hrefna I know you've been intimately following up on the fate of Haidra & Nivenly. Would love to know your thoughts re 👆
Has this always been the plan? For one of the big tech companies to acquire them with less of a negative press hit/backlash?
If Twitter ran for decades on a loss, so will OpenAI. Worst case scenario they get completely absorbed by MS and have the bill footed by them. Kind of what happened with Youtube.
One of the reasons tech companies were able to operate for a long time at a loss was due to interest rates being really low.
I think the increased interest rates are the reason for twitter, reddit, and other companies trying to monetize harder.
I could be wrong, I am not an economist. This is just the kind of stuff, I have read in other subs.
