Yeah, agree! Influenza 😃 "Sunsetting" is 2nd place.
Hah! 'Sunsetting', a term I know all too well right now heh/sob (are you spying on me??)
LMAO!
True.
IA is the folk process with the ultimate goal of removing the folk.
Uhm this is missunderstanding, i reacted on article in initial post of this thread.. 😂
hehe, that is what I figured
That's one way of looking at it, but the entire history of humankind is about invention and innovation. Improving on what exists right now is what we do.
It’s just you. You really need to wisen up and understand the ideologies of fascism and new feudalism driving Sam Altman et al. AI doesn’t exist. Never will.
You’re wrong. Resistance isn’t futile. Read this and wake up.
Hm… soon this topic will become too toxic to discuss.
Good luck resisting!
I doubt this would help me to make a living. Sadly I am not in a position where I can afford to sacrifice my livelihood for ideals. I will leave that up to the armchair commenters.
Most people are in the same boat.
That is why they are concerned about Ai taking their jobs.
The problem isn't that AI is "taking" the jobs of humans. We should be grateful for every job that can be done by an AI (or any kind of automation) and thus doesn't have to be done by humans. More freedom, more free time, less danger, less illness.
The problem is THE SYSTEM ™️, because the system depends on humans doing jobs, because it needs humans held as slaves with money as a threat.
I'm not sure though that our extremely bright and competent and good willing politicians will understand this concept and redesign the system to "cope" with an utopia where humans don't HAVE to work!
(more to the point: I think Universal Basic Income is the only solution to the AI conundrum. And a good one -- if implemented well!)
By that I meant regardless of what I think of it ethically I pretty much have to use it to stay ahead for as long as I can. More so I need to now constantly expand my skillset into new areas that AI cannot readily fulfill, for as long as those pockets exist, so that I can maintain being the one with the thumb on the AI button in the process, if that makes sense. My job has always mutated so I never felt it got 'taken' but the one thing I am really weary of is potentially feeling like a sort of outsource manager for those who have their thumb on the AI button, blech.
There is never enough supply for things which are in demand. The potential for new jobs which will be created due to existing jobs disappearing (jobs we can't even imagine today) is unknowable.
And not to take this thread too far afield, but "UBI" has been tried and it doesn't seem to work. It's based on uneconomic ideas and those ideas run contrary to human behavior. I won't post a link about it, but you can search yourself: "The Largest Study Ever on UBI Was Just Conducted—The Results Are Disappointing for Advocates".
Well, if I come across anyone who loses their job to Ai and can't pay their rent or buy food I'll pass on your message and tell them they should be grateful.
I've lost jobs due to companies making bad business decisions and then going under. A.I. had nothing to do with it. But then I found work elsewhere. This is how it should work. If anyone expects lifetime employment with one company, it's going to be their own company, not from working for someone else.
One company going under is managable.
Whole industries firing huge numbers of employees nationally is another story. Try finding work in that environment. I think it is going to be tough on a lot of people.
I don’t like people losing their jobs (who would?), but this is how the world works. Competition, creative destruction, turmoil… these will always be part of any vibrant and growing economy.
Interesting. I had a quick glance (might read more later), but the study might be statistically flawed because it explicitly picked low-income individuals for the test. This might skew the results towards correlated personal traits of certain social groups, so I'm not sure the study results are universal.
My main point is (also @NeuM) that society has to be completely rethought. The centuries-old "Get paid for work" scheme simply won't be adequate anymore, as essentially all essential work can be done by machines (good!) and thus humans are not strictly "required" to work anymore.
So the whole premise of "Having to work to be able to live" becomes meaningless.
How exactly society and politics need to change in order to adapt to this (amazing!) news -- I'm not sure. But I'm not a policymaker. I just know the old system won't work, obviously!
I am an idiot. Bearing that in mind, I am sincerely curious when societies have undergone significant transformation on this level without having to collapse first and be reborn/rebranded under a whole new structure (with all the sticky gross meat space stabby stuff that is usually involved). Genuinely curious! My bias is to see systems/countries etc as a series of Titanics doomed to horribly sink with new ones taking their place, making new rules/borders in the wake of hard learned lessons etc. Can this be done without the (insert apocalyptic clichés etc)?
But the system does work, sadly, for the few and I don’t foresee them giving up their power easily.
I totally get your point, and unfortunately you seem to be right, as this (sticky gross meat stabby bomby stuff) is how it has always worked in history.
I guess I'm just a terrible unfixable optimist sometimes 😄
Functioning economies can be explained very simply ("we live in a system of exchange"), but they are also unpredictable and complex beyond whatever clean economic models may be theorized. There are off-books individual exchanges (barter), black markets (drug trade), organized gangs extorting and stealing, etc., all of which play a factor on top of upfront and visible economic activity. A "UBI" would be an invitation for fraud, which was proven during the pandemic when governments flooded economies with free money.

The fact is, central planning and command economies do not work. Free and competitive markets work, as much as governments insist the opposite is true. The UBI is a bad answer to a problem that does not exist, because the forces of supply and demand will ALWAYS solve problems faster and better. The only thing governments do better than private markets is wage war.
The Cola Wars were a devastating blight on prime time TV. But yah, UBI won't fix human greed and fear. Maybe a system whereby people receive UBI only if their system contains X amount of voluntary psilocybin. Just spit balling.
Counter-offer: No UBI and let market-based competition solve it.
Awww man, I want SHROOMS DUDE!
I'm not sure market-based competition can solve it.
Lots of unemployed, hungry, homeless people = problem.
It's your house and food they will be coming for... got your guns loaded..?
Except that hasn't happened. When markets change, people typically adapt. New ways to capitalize on these advances is currently in progress. You can see this everywhere you turn if you're looking for the signs.
I fully expect in a year or two that we'll start to see robots like Tesla's Optimus being used to do factory work and take over things like fast food jobs. But those are also the kinds of jobs where (A) costs have risen so high that it continues to become unaffordable to employ people in those jobs and (B) there is still a shortage of workers, across the board.
