What I'm hearing is, they will literally risk people dying on planes just to train AI AND would rather do that than hire/employ actual staff that will do the work. Somehow, paying their staff a liveable wage and treating them like a human being just doesn't bode well enough for the rich people making these decisions.
This is fucking insane. I bet you that none of the places with private jets flying all these asshole c-suite execs are using AI. It's only being forced on the public because the idiots bought into the hype and don't know how else to make money out of it.
Actually no them too. Peter Theil is shockingly stupid and crazy. He believes it'll work and if it doesn't he's so special nothing bad can happen to him
Honest question: When was the last time something bad actually happened to these people?
That submarine imploded under the unbearable weight of a billionaire's hubris. The world got ever so slightly better that day.
Is there a way to convince more billionaires that 3rd-rate carbon fiber is a great building material for compression-loaded pressure vessels?
