The home solar industry is absolutely filled with scammers pushing various financing schemes so this isn't surprising at all. Residential solar is similar to residential roofing in that it's a finance/sales industry first and a contracting industry second.

Yeah I looked into one of those no cost solar installation services once and it turns out the way it works is you sign over all the tax benefits you get to the company in perpetuity.

Do you think the WSJ still pays for design/art, or did they fire everyone and go straight to generative images to improve margins?



As far as I can tell the primary driver of AI generative art investment is businesses wanting to replace corporate art departments. Nobody is going to pay for this kind of art ever again once the technology gets to the appropriate baseline. It's bascially there now. I just dont see the point in hiring people to draw diverse throwaway cartoons of people eating salad when the AI can do an equally good job

Anything that requires actual creativity and thought will still be real hard for the AI to do, but poo poo like this? Literally what these things were made for

The problem is that trends in design tend to shift fairly rapidly and most of these companies actually do like to have recognizable and brandable styles. Generative art might be able to replicate the current look, but it'll struggle to produce anything new and then consistently follow through. I can maybe see graphic design roles shifting to be more about producing AI training data than final artwork, though, and honestly that seems a little more dystopian to me.

Blythe uses the physical phenomena of entrainment as an analogy.

His observation was that everyone in the financial industry tends to the same sort of volatility because there's personal risk associated with not doing so.

You don't want to be the one guy who lost money when everyone else made money, and you *really* don't want to be the one guy who made money while everyone else lost money. So in times of high volatility all associated firms tend to converge on a similar set of decisions and observations and that means they all exhibit similar periods/oscillations.

that’s definitely not how it works with the scam panel leases. those systems are always direct grid tie, and generally dont even give you the ability to disconnect from the grid during an outage to make use of the power.
