Wolves don’t indiscriminate between invasive and endangered species though.

Not that I as a small bussines owner would expect anyone to use this to call me about my pricing or services but the call would end real quick when I realise I’m talking to an AI. I don’t even have anything against AI per se, I talk with LLMs a lot. It’s just that if you can be arsed to personally call me then I can’t be arsed to serve your needs either - I have more serious customers to cater to.

It’s hilarious how people turn everything into conspiracies nowdays, while at the same time dismissing every narrative they don’t like as a conspiracy too. Just today, there’s another thread about Gemini “refusing to discuss Bernie Sanders” while at the same time it gives the exact same answer when asked about Trump.

Isn’t that what streamers are for?

This kind of “active” stock trading is essentially an attempt to predict the future. If you own Nvidia stock and hear about a new disruptive technology entering the market, you might predict that its stock value will drop. So, you sell now before the price falls too much, intending to buy back at a discount once you think it has stabilized.

When enough people do this, it triggers a chain reaction - investors see their holdings losing value and rush to sell before it’s “too late.” But in reality, it’s rarely too late because, more often than not, the price eventually rebounds. The only reason people lose money is that they panic and sell at a loss. There hasn’t been a single stock market crash in history that we haven’t recovered from.

That’s why writing news articles about short-term stock fluctuations is mostly pointless - these movements barely even register on the graph when viewed over the long term.

New car sales.

Maybe people are finally coming to their senses and rather opting for new-used cars. You get the same thing for way less money.
