    1. Gona be simple. If your unemployed in 10years when ai has taken all your jobs. You will be mandatory forced to join the army. Ya not needed anymore

    2. Corporate Welfare Queen CEO’s pull off “The Largest Theft of Labor in Human History”.
      Fixed it.

    3. > “[It] seems to be particularly good at predicting text of news articles like whenever i have it complete in the middle of a sentence in a NYT article, it seems to complete the sentence on point.”

      It’s worth all the societal and environmental damage that AI causes…to have it complete a sentence that someone else has already written.

      Patiently waiting for the idiots to wake up and be upset about this.

      We collectively are going to be reduced to a line item liability on a balance sheet.

    5. Here’s the point most overlook.

      “Microsoft’s own research found that when people used AI search versus traditional search engines, there were 90 percent fewer clicks to news articles.”

      The search engines are happy to keep you on their site as long as possible. This is a great way to kill click-throughs. That incentive isn’t going away.

    6. Outsourcing to AI is the same bright idea as offshoring work to China / India…etc. (I am not shitting on Chinese, Indians…etc. I know people need work and are paid peanuts).

      Outsourcing leaves countries without skilled workforce, technology, R&D, continuous progress, trained people, people who can train juniors to seniors…etc. You name it.

      Then the price gets hiked up.

      In a couple of years, those same idiots who fucked the whole training and working process up are the same idiots who will cry for not being able to find people who will do the work.

    7. I don’t know – kinda early to brag about this, when AI is heavily subsidized. Wait until you have to choose between a clanker churning out unchecked work and a meat bag who works slower but carries full responsibility – for the same price.

      There’s no big increase in labor/production from AI alone, there is no big jump in unemployment, robotics are too far behind for there to big that much of a production gain from AI alone.

      AI adoption to meaningful output increase is pretty slow. It takes businesses decades to learn new tech and apply it properly. AI still needs a lot of improvement and efficiency gain. Business still need to adopt it as more than a toy AND then it needs to train at the business level by experts in the field/job role.

      You can’t just make LLM general purpose AI that does jobs well. It’s only a tool until it gets down to the industrial level of the jobs you expect it to really replace and then trained and tweaked for years before it’s really going to replace much other than the most menial repetitious office jobs.

      AI has less impact on the economy and productivity than the 90s boom of computing and internet. It’s more about marginal gains, unfortunately high wattage use and robotics being decades behind.

      It’s just a productivity tool that can’t replace many jobs, but it can lead to the worst period of misinformation in modern history by corrupting the fuck out of already very corrupt media without standards.

      The worlds currently very relaxed standards on mass media + AI generated/highly altered video, is a nightmare for civil human behavior and social stability as well as general human intelligence. You’re main educator throughout life will be mass media… unless you die right out of high school or college perhaps or live in a cave with no internet/TV.

      Jobs are not the big problem, already super low mass media standards + tools that make it easier to brainwash the masses will turn out to be the real problem, along with declining human IQ.

      Give the USA military the right to repair and tech bros and their CCP overlords will turn into rats the dogs can hunt 💯🛞⚖️🍿

      This will stop the coup 💯

      Theft of “resources”. It was developed using US taxpayer dollars, stolen from us and given to a select few that sold it back to us and used it against us. Reverse Bayh-Dole

    11. They should be in jail for all the intellectual property they have stolen but instead they are rewarded with our tax dollars…

    12. I read a theory that the reason we’re seeing so many “defectors” and “whistleblowers” lately is essentially that the bubble is about to pop and these companies need to really make AI seem more important and powerful than it really is to keep investment flowing in. If these companies can deceive the public and investors that their product is so powerful that it can cause massive job losses, or is an existential threat to humanity, then surely there’s gold in them hills. Depressing one way or another.

    13. Don’t worry guys they have prepared lists of everyone involved from Major labs, classified with as much as information about them available collected. All researchers and executives.

      They will release the list once shit hits the fan. So that people know who are responsible. They cannot simply say they are employees, its like a soldier saying they are only following orders.

    14. The thing is… Because of opensource models, it’s been possible to steal it from the frontier AI companies too !

    15. May have? That was your goal.

      Don’t act like you found a wallet on the sidewalk. This was a deliberate robbery.

    16. AI doesn’t exist without the underlying copyright infringement that serves as the very foundation of all its knowledge. If laws were actually enforced in this country, none of this would exist.

      This is a hot take. People aren’t meant for jobs in the first place. Don’t have a job. Subservience is its own foregone conclusion.

      Go out and start businesses.

    18. Well, if MAGA voters (particularly sub-55yo age group that still needs work/money) figure out that the GOP blatantly signed away their financial futures off to a league of 1000 corrupt men or so (many foreign, at that), then maybe our democracy can kick in and essentially counter-sue all of them for all they’re worth and we can all just hit the hot spas and enjoy some brews.
