And this absolutely will not change the course of AI investment whatsoever because it still driving a huge amount of profit.
The only thing that will finally change the course of AI investment is when the bubble finally burst which will cause the collapse of our economy because, by that point, so much money will have been invested in it. There will be no other possible result.
And why? Because these assholes only care about one thing: short term results at any cost.
“profit” is gonna need some qualifiers there.
Firing the staff & reporting “earnings”? Goosed stock price on the above + hypey garbage? Enforced “features” no one wants? AI hardware makers? Okay, that one’s legit, but ironically not AI.
It sounds just like Goldman Sachs or von wolfhousen as in the way he speaks, it must be archlinux or it being used for AI and openbts with iPhones instead of Ubuntu, yeah we got a 200 customer call center right here at this computer. It’s like Goldman Sachs only existed because of some movie called “road trip” being filmed in northeast Ohio. Goldman Sachs causes this college and Bavarian thing to go on, especially abc warehouse, and I wanted one of those TVs they were supposedly different or else I’d have to make own for tungsten electron emitter or I’d have to one like a smartphone Oled. You all gotta buy new TVs like that if you’re taking this whole digital addiction thing serious. Anything off the Silk Road may be Sachs or maybe Troy is Sachs or it’s just commercial places that you’d think did fix computers still. You don’t want old backlit laptop monitor screens to be addicted to tv and streaming. A 2 grand iPhone was no big deal or expensive, TVs are 2 grand but it’s not touch screen with games and websites. Get schizophrenic you can write away on these things.
That movie is why college and college sports or exercising like cross country and the NFL exists and even the Olympics. They were running from civilization being built they had to build the entire thing to lock anyone in some credit card financial housing market economy with computer jobs.
No one’s supposed to know and neither is the guy we do this acting thing for but if anyone finds out we just turn a camera on and pretend it’s some movie shoot, all this stuff just went on because I wore this Sean Willian Scott mask and it changed my voice and I liked swearing and doing the stifler thing. The movie was called “John’s day” (it’s where I had to spend the day with him and like I pretended I thought it was his birthday and kept saying the f word, because we heard that John swears all he wants or that rated R movies didn’t matter because they actually to each other in their household) because he always had an American pie dvd sitting out in his room and I was trying to watch it to remove parasites from the mind but they said to film a new one instead so we just wandered around doing bad diligent adult stuff while drunk and high because they wouldn’t let us watch some rated R or unrated movie where some guy blows his pubes into a wedding cake. The guy was Jewish if he had a wedding at all.
Number 3 drives me hair-tearing insane, I have straight up seen AI cultists say AI will fix the power grid but only if we keep pouring resources into it so that it can fix all our problems. ಠ_ಠ
e/acc. The dumb MFs believe burning fossil fuels as fast as possible will lead to technological advancements to mitigate the problems. It’s all wishful thinking and convienant blind faith.
“I’ll finally have he strength to kick this heroin habit if I just do more heroin.”
I’m very confident that with carte blanche the electrical engineers already overseeing the grid could solve the problems it faces. We don’t need an ai miracle, we need to remove bureaucratic and funding obstacles for critical infrastructure.
And this is it: Many of those “AI will be so smart that it can solve these problems for us!” arguments refer to problems where having a “smart” enough solution isn’t the problem… Getting people to care/notice/participate/get out of the way is.
Unfortunately, as Keynes noted: “Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent”
And my god, they’re committed to irrationality right now.
What trillion dollar problem is it solving? In the minds of investors, that “problem” is paying people for labor.
If AI is a trillion dollar investment, what trillion dollar problem is it solving?
Why, the trillion dollars not yet in the pockets of the companies that think they can take advantage of AI of course.
The naked truth is that #4 answers #1. The biggest utility AI might provide would be replacing paid workers. That’s a trillion dollar problem if your ultimate goal is to hoard wealth and sit atop the highest pile of gold like a dragon.
So again, we have a solution to a problem only the wealthy elite have, being marketed as an advancement for the greater good of society, to justify stealing the massive resources it consumes, in order to not have to pay that directly to their workers.
Capitalism.
The AI makes the art. The art is made into an NFT. The NFT goes on the blockchain. We all get rich. Climate is saved. End of story. How are people not getting this??? 😂😭
Okay, yes true. But have you considered that Big Number Go Up? Do you really want to miss the boat on this massive speculative opportunity?
The trillion dollar problem is paying billions of pesky workers to work
I think that’s the obvious implication of this question, but you’re missing the implied question arising from that answer: is this a problem we want to solve in this way ?
Obvi
Yeah this is basically Metaverse or NFTs but with a slightly more plausible use case so that it will drag out far longer before corporations quietly pretend it never happened.
The tech itself is decent. But as always, profit above anything else, so we can’t have anything nice.
So instead, it will be wasted and forgotten.
