Which is ‘essential’ to humanity ? Emphasis on ‘essential’ part. iPhone was the last essential innovation imho. Is it Social media - how ? Is it Tesla - how ? Is it Alexa controlled garage door opener - how ? TC : ~ 400k Yoe 10+
Only fans 🤪
Ever wondered what that girl across the street butthole looks like? Odds are she has an only fans and for $5 you can see it. If that’s not revolutionary I don’t know what is.
Idk, payments got revolutionalized in India if that counts
Good point but not a global impact
Over the last decade the same thing happened globally, what are you talking about?
We did innovate something trying to vipe out humanity
Like ?
he means AI... LOL we invented mockery NOT AI
Medical research. Lots of stupid myths being debunked like dietary cholesterol impacting serum cholesterol. You don’t need scamming doctors that wait for you to degrade and then treat your symptoms anymore.
What is Big Tech playing a role in that ? Cancer is still incurable so is Alzheimer’s
Big tech has always been dumb. You can do almost everything you need with a *nix operating system and some open source software. Big tech has always been about throwing a fancy UI on open source so that dumb people didn’t have to learn *nix.
LinkedIn cringe content creators are my favourite. At least after reading their post, I giggle.
How is it essential?
Significant swing in the wrong direction
Nothing essential been innovated, if it’s essential then it already exists
Covid vaccine if that counts
Really — how about innovation of internet ? iPhone ? Or even looking back at history - electricity ? All of them existed ?
Innovation always comes from areas of limited resources. All the underpaid engineers are doing research and taking humanity forward All the SWEs are indulged in Tc & gtfo
I really want some examples of such effort - even failed ones
Innovation doesn't always come from limited resources. Ex: DeepMind working on protein folding problem. No deny this is very innovative (as it works and it is a very useful tool to further the research in biological sciences)
Bitcoin… nothing else
Robot anime waifus
And Vtubers! Surely the greatest use of AR mocap technology.
