Your feelings doesnt negate my point. Twitter been shytty and i dont need elon musk to make me know that.

Stop with this little boy energy and man up instead of reporting me because you dont like my words. You should manage your emotions better. The women on this forum have better emotional control than you dudes in here crying over racist white men. Elon aint shyt. We all know that. I would be more worried about neuralink and him being coups in foreign countries instead of him managing twitted which has always been shytty. You lost the moment you used it anyway.

Some of you dudes are acting like bytches for men who wouldnt even save you if their lives depended on it. Stop embarrassing yourselves.

can you tell us why you think the site is shytty?

The thing to remember is that 300 million people on Twitter means that there are 7.7 billion people who aren't using it.

So for some people to say Twitter is an accurate representation of what's going on or how the world is thinking is a little misleading.

At the end of the day, It's survivorship bias: many people of those 300 million are people desperate for attention, so when you read twitter you got to approach it with the caution that you're about to read content from people who are freaking out or want to get your attention rather than thinking it's accurate information from people who are level-headed. A lot of those people posting on that site like to wade in negativity.

For example, think of the smart people at work or that person who is successful and in a happy family. They're not on Twitter. There's no reason for them to be.

If you want posts from those types of people and to really stay with the real latest news from people who don't want to damage their reputation then the best site is Linkedin. In fact, many of the breakthroughs and innovations are posted on Linkedin first because people who have legit, verified skills are trying to connect professionally to work on interesting problems. The real life credentials are there to verify. Those reports people make on twitter and reddit are old news compared to Linkedin, who are already working on the next wave.

In comparison, Twitter is more full of people who talk a big game and shyt post, but that's all they do because it's 300 million (somewhat mentally unstable) people looking for attention. Twitter is buzzword-central from people who don't really know what they're talking about compared to Linkedin. Most of Twitter's traffic is he-said, she-said, most of Linkedin's activity are people discussing real shyt from verified sources because their reputation and consequently their way of life are on the line.

linkedin isn't public, it's just another information silo.
people do announce breakthroughs and innovations on twitter as well, it's basically a PSA platform.

reddit posts announcing breaking news or announcements tend to cite twitter more than any other site.

We already lost if we needed Twitter to access immediate information, it should've never gotten to that point.

I'd say maybe for more current affairs/breaking news Twitter and reddit got you covered and all the speculation babble.

However, things such as technology, research, etc. none of those sites are beating Linkedin.

Additionally, the context clues are easier to assemble on Linkedin: you see a team of researchers working at a company who come from different companies but on similar teams and you know what they're focusing on. People interested in working on certain fields are doing the same type of verification checking before they sign onto work at any individual company because we don't want to waste our time. I get a real good feel for the company by looking at the team before I sign on to do an interview.

@IIVI

A.I developments are breaking on linkedin more than everywhere else?

like i said before linked in is a information silo. twitter is/was public facing. even with the new restrictions, it's more accessible than linkedin.

 

[ALonelyDad]

Definitely false, and not even close.

TikTok has 1 billion active monthly users.
Twitter got ~300 million active monthly users. Which means 7.7 billion people out there ain't even reading twitter.

That gap is probably increased further by Twitter's recent decisions.

By numbers and users, Twitter is at the bottom of the main social media apps, the better way to say it is most important, when it comes to real time news/update. But IG, FB, Tiktok, etc all beat it by a mile when it comes to users.

where else should we be accessing immediate information?

I mean i've literally felt tremors or have the power go out and I'd check on twitter to see within a minute of it happening that people are commenting on the same experience in my city.

conEd has never confirmed a power outage in a tweet before residents could mention it online. twitter gets past all the "official" announcements and journalists report on that. they'll mention online users before the company even have time to put out a statement.

Real A.I developments most likely.

People's side projects they're trying to shill people are probably announced on Twitter to sucker people into signing up.

You go on Linkedin and you'd know for example about ChatGPT plugins were being developed and wouldn't have wasted time and money subscribing to 3rd party plugins for a few months.

All those smart professionals working at Boston Dynamics sharing what they're doing on Linkedin are not all in the videos clout-chasing posting on twitter first for example.

For example: go to Bston Dynamics' Linkedinpage > click on People > Click on Education: M.I.T > view the team who works at Boston Dynamics that went to M.I.T and see what they're working on. That's much more real and legit.

Here you go for example, find these people's twitter accounts, probably won't have that many because they're real nerds and engineers, not clout chasers:

LinkedIn Login, Sign in | LinkedIn

Login to LinkedIn to keep in touch with people you know, share ideas, and build your career.

www.linkedin.com

Additionally, you can see each one of them post their patents and publications. Can you find those on Twitter?

side projects
real A.I developments are happening in the open source community

those people on linkedin are for sure following what devs are talking about on twitter.

No they ain't

They getting paid money to solve certain problems by the U.S military or any other company throwing massive amounts of money around for example.

Embedded programming, hardware to play on, etc. ain't cheap and not many people have those resources laying around at their labs at home. Algorithms for ML have been around for a minute, it's the sensors and the sources of input that needed to level up. Many times the expenses for those are insanely expensive. Additionally, you actually need highly educated and/or experienced people for that, not your random hobbyist.

did you even read the memo ?

META team got beat to the bunch by this guys side project





it wasn't announced on linkedin first.

 

[Adeptus Astartes]

And twitter was always bullshyt and anti black if we going to keep it 100. You guys have to be really dense to suddenly dislike it because of elon musk.

Elon killed the one actual use Twitter had that set it apart from other social media, the ability to quicky and widely disseminate information. His putting a battery in the back of white supremacists is secondary.

We're talking "real a.i developments" breh, not some workarounds. I don't know much about what you just posted but they were talking about Meta releasing those weights, it sounds like that kaikoendev guy posted a workaround he found on github. The main tech though was Facebook, who you can probably follow on linkedin and view the team responsible.

From the ChatGPT community on Reddit: Meta's LLaMA LLM has leaked - Run Uncensored AI on your home PC! | Pedro Larroy

So now that the LLaMa ( https://lnkd.in/ewY-jPwf ) weights are kindly released by Meta, we can play with some models which were released as "delta weights" such as Vikuna ( https://lnkd.in/ed9Fyii3 ) This is interesting because Meta required to apply for access. You can also run LLaMa 7B on...

www.linkedin.com

Somebody making real progress with expensive hardware or large data set processing, you think that's happening at some random person's home lab? That keikoendev don't even have a twitter either, but the fact he worked at Stripe: bet they got a Linkedin though.

I'd like to know of another platform that can do this. Even reddit isn't this fast due to threads needing moderator approval before they're posted.
