- This is way too brief and lacks any actual evidence for its argument
- It doesn’t touch on the main argument of AI bubble forecasters: that AI costs a massive amount of money to develop and run but does not make nearly enough money to recoup that investment. And people don’t seem to be interested enough in AI to actually pay for it, especially given that the actual price will be very high
these companies know what they’re doing
AGI is right around the corner
Shouldn’t be surprised that anime profile pic couldn’t believe they’re being lied to on the internet.
Why is it not surprising? Are people with anime profile pics more gullible or ignorant than the average person?
There was a time in my experience of twitter where the only anime profile pictures I ran across were people arguing about gamergate.
That’s exactly it. If you’re trusting Elon with the future of work you really should evaluate your position, and whether that anime pfp is doing you any favours
From that article it looks like this is supposed to be a joke and you’re not actually supposed to hold such a position unironically.
unironically ironic
i took the bait
An economic bubble isn’t when something is fake and ceases to exist when the bubble bursts.
We use the term when the market is inflated way beyond its value.
A bubble bursting is when people realize the market is inflated way beyond its value and pull out, leaving debt-ridden companies to their debt.
Some go bankrupt, stock prices fall, economy news outlets insist nobody could have predicted this, investments go elsewhere, people are laid off, and the people responsible fail upward to another grift.
when people start using the “don’t question them; they know what they’re doing” argument…I become even more suspicious. If they knew what they were doing the results would be apparent and spectacular to everyone; no one would question it…
the fact that trickery and forced adoption are required for the technology to succeed is very telling about the competence of the technology itself.
