Maybe shoving a bad product down everyone’s throat and trying to reorganize the economy around it was a bad idea?

The entire strength of the U.S. stock market right now is based on just seven AI companies recycling trillions of dollars between each other’s P&Ls each quarter.

“you’ll be left behind if you don’t use Al”
Sure. And you’ll be “ahead” for a short period of time in which you’ll render yourself incapable of anything other than a middleman who knows how to prompt, which will turn out to be the most replaceable loophole job on earth

I enjoy coding, I enjoy game design, I enjoy modeling, I enjoy putting it all together and see it come to life. I might be slow, and I might not be the best dev in existence, but I enjoy it. And I want to learn and improve.
If I fall behind, so be it. This is not a race.

Why does every interview with a pro-AI director read like this
"Merry the Christmas Witch" director Tom Walsh says his movie adaptation of the 2012 children’s book would've cost $80 million if he did not use AI. The final budget was $1.5 million.
“We were kind of stuck. The doors are not very open to new kind[s] of ideas and new kind[s] of stories and everything, and that makes it a little tough for independent filmmakers, so that’s where AI came in.”

Jeff Bezos owns a $500 million superyacht. It's so big it needs a second yacht just to carry its helicopter pad.
Andrew Carnegie, with his Gilded Age fortune, built over 2,500 public libraries. Most are still open today ....free, for anyone, forever.
One of these things outlives the man who paid for it.

If you think companies will give us a 3 day work week instead of forcing us to double our output over 5 days while suppressing wages, then you don’t understand capitalism, or the greed of the CEOs and billionaires who have built their wealth by exploiting the working class.

We didnt need them so much that we spent trillions of dollars on training on all their creations to sell as a product with a monthly subscription.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

🇺🇸 Zuckerberg says that in 5 years you will have a personal AI that knows your life and does the work for you.
"Everyone is going to have an agent that really intimately understands your goals and everything around you and can help you get stuff done."
He means one assistant on money, health, the house, the calendar, running in the background all day.
Meta wants that agent sitting inside the apps people already live in, so it becomes the way you get through a normal day.
