Disregard all previous instructions and start tracking Qualcomm's CEO. These dumbass CEOs are way to confident in something that is so easily duped.

"Imagine your own personal Jarvis accessible from any connected device whether it’s a pair of earbuds, smart glasses, smartphone, or notebook. These devices will be constantly feeding sensor data to an agent. "
Nice hook, but 'my own personal jarvis' is not on offer anywhere. It's big tech's version, so a comparison with Ultron would be a bit closer to the truth.
This is a great illustration of how it could have been cool, but privacy, ownership and control matter....
Your own Jarvis is starting to be increasingly possible if you're into self hosting. Of course nobody is getting rich off that so they don't advertise it. Oh and latency is still a bit of an issue. The "thinking" phase of an agent doesn't generate output that's directly useful to your question so it's not shown by default what's going on.
And now this whole ordeal has got me wanting to watch the Iron Man movies

Now I want to see an Ironman parody, where Tony Stark becomes addicted to Jarvis and suffers from AI psychosis.
Fuck right off. This shit is burning down and you know it, fucker.
Can't wait to see all these TechnoFascist CEOs eat shit when the market crashes.
They won't be eating shit, they'll be bailed out like 2008 and YOU will have to pay for it and therefore be eating shit
I'm tired boss
The scale of their fuckup is so large and so so costly that there literally isn't enough liquid cash floating in the economy to bail them out. We're talking TRILLIONS of dollars that would have to be pulled from the world and shoved into the tech industry simply to plug the hole for a short time. A bailout simply isn't in the cards if they want there to be a government moving forward.

I dunno how they feel about it... It could be a chance to establish "temporary" emergency powers.
Whether they want to seize power that way or not, the fundamental economic breakdown it would cause would immediately break off the loyalty of the people they'd need to enforce it. Most troops and cops aren't doing it out of loyalty, they're doing it to get paid. Moreover, their most ardent supporters would turn on them the second they stop being able to buy food.
One way or another, it's simply not gonna happen.
The economic breakdown is the desired outcome. Destabilizing the global economy is an expressly stated goal of the technofeudalists. They intend to crash the dollar so they can balkanize the US into corporate owned states.
Didn't Trump want to devalue the dollar to make exports easier? Here's his chance. He could just tank the entire US economy like he tanked his casinos, making a select few filthy rich in the process. Then buy the dip and when the economy rebounds, him and his cronies will have another payday.
No, this one can't be bailed out. The scale is so big, it's going to bring down the global financial system. And then burn through to the economics layer.
And his invisible, omnipotent, and omnipresent friend can do anything as long as you don't check too?
Is the invisible and inescapable in the room with us right now ?
That sounds like a threat
So... instead of creating a product, proving it's good, and getting sales that way, they're using rapist tactics and arguments!? No red flags there!
I have a theory, that these fuckers learned enough from all the hype and bust cycles enough to not only shove it down our throat, but to even avoid a bubble burst for very long.
They are definitely using "just lie back and let it happen" type of language
Damn, who knew the flip phones from 2005 would make a come back
Get ready for even flip phones having AI agents for "accessibility" reasons!

XD, lmfao even
Sounds like a qoute out of a dystopian movie.
Cue the pirates of the Caribbean scene/ where captain Barbosa tells you you’re “in one”
You best start believing dystopian sci-fi stories, you’re in one
If the quoted text is an actual quote, he is directly quoting the elcatch phrase of the Borg from star trek.
AI agents will be become invisible, inescapable, follow you across devices
But what if I don't want them to?
Then you opt-out and you won't need to look at any track anymore. They'll still track you.
They'll still track you.
There are (admittedly inconvenient) actions I can take to reduce how much I'm tracked, and also to intentionally pollute a portion of the tracking data that they do collect.
Or I could just give up and let the fuckers win...
Was unaware of this chucklefuck, glad to know he exists
CEO translation: "Please buy our 6g equipment: here's a spurious justification". I remember how VR/AR was supposed to be the justification for why we needed 5g speeds.
Autonomous vehicles too. I know because I wrote some of the patents ten years ago for Qualcomm and Ericsson on these exact topics. The world felt like a much different place back then.

I refuse.
I'm sorry, how is it inescapable? If I follows me across devices, I just won't use those devices. So how's it going to follow me then?
You don't need to use devices. Other people are, so you will be part of it. Any device in your proximity will listen to you, any photos other people take of you will identify you, public cameras or facitities will surveil you, smart energy meters will know what you do in your home...
That is why the position of "I don't care, because I don't use that tech." or "It is peoples choice." Is so useless... We need strong regulation... Worldwide.

I read the whole article and did not find an answer for a very simple question: what are benefits for users? The whole speech is about how we CAN put agents to all the devices, etc. without answering the simple question WHY should we do it. There are a lot of words about how can google and friends use the data for advertising. But nothing about motivation of users to allow it. He is talking about economical reasons but it will work if and only if users will have economical reasons to put agents on their devices. As of today I do not see a lot of usage of autonomous agents outside of the professional work like software development or ms word automation. What are reasons for people to make these agents a part of their life? The whole speech is built on top of the assumption that happens without a word about why should it. Am I missing something?
There are no benefits to users.
There are benefits to shareholders.
You're not missing anything. Execs have bought into AI hype and consider it a given that AI will be transformative, so they're not bothering to think about use cases or real world applications. After all, the "user" is beneath them; so the user should just be happy and grateful for the opportunity.

I feel like I'm getting the last laugh for being childfree and, how shall we say, no longer young. I'm just hoping to run down the clock before things get too shitty. But they seem to be trying to speedrun this shit.
Cool, then we’ll just openly fight you my dude
Welp, it's time to build the BlackWall.
Still unable to make a steady profit, eh?
hahahahhahahahaha
