As a long time Calvin fan, that there is an edit. First off it's a typeface instead of hand written. Secondly, those panels are originally about Calvin Ball (and I think specifically about bed time)
The way I see it, all these general LLMs and AIs are just the learning tools for the actual future use for ML.
Companies are throwing money and research at them for easy gains, but once the bubble pops, most of them will be irrelevant and will die off. Once there's no reason to "move fast and break things", the actual slow and methodical research will start happening to find where ML belongs in this world.
In the future, specialized companies will utilize all the research being done today to craft more focused tools that do things that machine learning is actually useful for.
ML tech isn't going away. It just needs to mature to the point where these useless bots aren't worth the effort.
I would say to go find some people. Go find a local gaming store, and look for something like a DnD or tournament group to join. Maybe look for some other sort of group: camping, biking, robotics, whatever.
Get to know some people, make some friends. Once you get to know people and get close to them, then you can open up about your struggles. Good friends will want to support you and help you out.
Find some people and then you won't have to struggle alone. Plus, all the fun things you can do with them will be a good distraction from your addictions, and maybe, over time, your addictions will lessen.
I would highly recommend the Bobiverse series. A fairly grounded sci-fi series that explores the idea of von numan probes (uploading people's consciousnesses into machines that travel between stars and can self replicate).
The series is quite clean, but still explores deep and more mature topics such as: if you clone an AI consciousness, is it still you?
Would you like a little constructive criticism on your art? Nothing drastic, just something small that pops out to me.

It's a torrent understandably:
No word on why it happened yet.
My guess has a few factors to it (in no particular order):
Cost soda syrup is likely a lot cheaper than the chemical concoction for energy drinks.
Safety Energy drinks pose a much greater health risk if the concentrations are off. Companies would have to prevent young children from accessing the machines (if they are used in restaurants). They would also have to prevent customers from drinking too much. I can also imagine chugging a bunch of the syrup would likely kill you (it's bound to happen).
Flavor Control soda companies already accept and plan for the difference in fountain vs bottled sodas. I feel energy drink companies want as much control as possible to keep their brand image perfect.
I always like it when it pops up on my feed
Thanks 😊
I have. Made a post there a week or two ago.
