How. How does this work? They lose astronomical amounts of money. Without a prospect to ever make enough to be in plus, not even talking about paying off all the investments. How does this system work? I never understand. Same with US economy.
AI companies will try to worm their way inside governments around the world, to “enhance” them. Then they’ll become “essential” cost of running said governments, being “impossible” to remove without serious disruption.
Well, the stock market on the whole is about gambling. Legalized gambling that fucks over small-time investors. So … why should long-term viability matter? The gamblers want their cash, that’s what they’re there for, and they don’t care about bankruptcy or mass economic collapse.
Yes, but the scale of this… We’re talking billions being poured into things that are not sustainable in any possible way and every investment into it will end up down the drain.
sooner than later, “agentic AI” will replace the “employee cost burden”. I presume they’ll charge per AI agent and produce revenue at scale.
everything you see in politics nowadays is a race against the clock to create infrastructure to “deal with” the unwashed, unemployed, hungry masses. UBI is not going to win out over soylent green.
This all presumes that OpenAI can get there and further is exclusively in a position to get there.
Most experts I’ve seen don’t see a logical connection between LLM and AGI. OpenAI has all their eggs in that basket.
To the extent LLM are useful, OpenAI arguably isn’t even the best at it. Anthropic tends to make it more useful than OpenAI and now Google’s is outperforming it on relatively pointless benchmarks that were the bragging point of OpenAI. They aren’t the best, most useful, or cheapest. The were first, but that first mover advantage hardly matters when you get passed.
Maybe if they were demonstrating advanced robotics control, but other companies are mostly showing that whole OpenAI remains “just a chatbot”, with more useful usage of their services going through third parties that tend to be LLM agnostic, and increasingly I see people select non OpenAI models as their preference.
But, but… surely, the most important AI application of all time, my OpenAI girlfriend, who truly loves me beyond all monetization opportunities, will never be replaced by a hotter newer model.
Establishment prefers solylent green solution to unneeded slavery for sure. UBI is an obvious winning political platform, even though it does not provide the proponents with maximum political power, the way that bandaids on oligarchist supremacism still allows for supremacism and soylent green to rise as the solution.
Simply, the answer, is to reject establishment politics, including Bernie as controlled opposition proposing nonsense that gets shot down for its stupidity, instead of UBI.
Also, an MIT study released today, said 135m US jobs could be replaced with AI agents.
