Well, he has a very high disapproval score. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/polls/donald-trump-approval-rating-polls.html

Then why do so many of my coworkers seem to love using it for the dumbest stuff?

Is it a cognitive dissonance thing like how most people in the US don’t like factory farms, but most people eat meat, dairy, and eggs?

Or is my workplace just statistically more inclined than most?

Yeah, renting would work too. Though honestly trains would be best.

I want 125 mile range and swappable batteries.

My daily commute + any additional driving rarely exceeds 60 miles. If I could swap it for a 400 mile range battery before a long trip, that’d be cool. Just rent the battery for a week.

In general, I prefer when special effects are planned well and given the time and budget to be great, often times that results in a combination practical and CG effect, but the artists work hard to realize the shared human vision either way.

People hate CGI, because when they notice it, it’s done poorly. It’s done poorly either because technology doesn’t exist yet for it to be great or more often the case- when it’s under funded.

The whole point of media is to share a fundamental human experience, to reflect emotions, and to share an intended meaning. AI can’t do that.

Unfortunately, I think the only way people will pay the prices these companies need is if LLMs become so ingrained in our lives that we effectively require them to live (like smartphones).

I think you should think about why you want to degoogle. What’s made that a priority for you?

I bet you’ll find that using LLMs contradicts those values.

So the already small number of companies that control our food are reducing the options we are being provided.

Then this

feel like a better deal for shoppers.

We won’t actually get better deals, we’ll just feel like we are.

Capitalism sure is the greatest system
