A true Scotsman wrote a book about this, _The Wealth of Nations_. He observed how politicians use wars to increase taxes. Tech companies are exploiting our fear of AGI to get voluntary taxes. Time to give Henney Penny a call.
- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoThis is your conclusion from the drama at OpenAI? The tech companies are "exploiting our fear of AGI to get voluntary taxes". I don't know what planet you're on, but it doesn't seem to be the same one I think I'm on.
- keithalewis 3y agoWhat do you call it when corporations with more money than you can imagine use that to convince you to buy things you don't need?
- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoThere's a lot of things you could call it. "getting voluntary taxes" doesn't spring to the top of the list.
- keithalewis 3y agoThat is an odd way to thank me for opening your mind on this planet.
