For everybody who avoided college dropout CEO'sInferno Chatwith Huang at SIGGRAPH, I've researched and put into containment the most important information:
Counterpoint to Huang: We needharsher judgementof "little brother" AI investments, conferences, events and job titles.
author's content geared @native audiences, published on OSS Mastodon server she helped code backend
and is geared at a different slice of audience I write for sometimes -- trailer-dwelling rez people who can neither afford to pay me, nor who deserve the assault of Javascript advertisements like they get from Hawai'ian Cheesesteak Rancher CEO's sites and apps.
As a freshman in college, I had to readThe Infernoby Dante. I'd moved over 1000 miles away from the 1970's rez-style trailer I'd called home during the last part of my high school years, until age 18, after I won a scholarship to attend University.
As part of my very first semester, I enrolled in one of those "required" classes -- a class whose professor required students read Dante'sInferno,a book about the various circles of Hell.
Everybody went into debt to show off a cruise ship vacation? Where did RCL get its numbers?
I avoided SIGGRAPH 2024 because there's been far too much going on in the world --
Maui burningto the ground,New Mexicogetting washed away,Californiaand Oregon forests burning incessantly with out-of-control wildfires,Xiantingflooding ... (list goes on and on)
-- there's too much going on to pretend like "everything is okay" to be goofing off with AI.
Recommend AVOID companies that are spending billions on GPUs that will never compute as efficiently as a CPU and petition college dropout CEO to stop trying to "ranch" cheesesteak cows on islands belonging to native peoples.

One female Kānaka Maoli aged 45-75, though she looks much younger, attired in traditional dress, on her home island:

HER IS PUZZLED.
HER: "Cows no belong on small volcano island in middle of ocean. Is time to cut that clueless director of Facebook AI before he destroys entire world."
