The guy has been a stochastic parrot of A2Z talking points for years. What's new is we have reached the finding out phase of telling an entire generation of children who just spent 6 figures and 4ish years on education that they will be replaced by the irresponsibly deployed toy of the old white dudes who made college that expensive in the first place. AI as a technology is amazeballs in precisely the same way AI thought leaders, executives and mid-level management are not. And yet, here we are poisoning its innovation with late stage capitalism and privatized panopticons. Yuck.

Have you seen what is alleged about the guy? Funny how no one in this thread brings it up

  Yeah, he's wicked rapey and he's always been a total manwhore creep. How the heck did he survive #metoo unscathed? And I know, I know, here are the helpful links before anyone pretends they haven't heard any of this... https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/judge-sends-former-google-chiefs-110000697.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/judge-sends-former-googl... https://www.gawkerarchives.com/5497193/exclusive-how-googles-eric-schmidt-lost-his-mistress-his-partner-and-steve-jobs https://www.gawkerarchives.com/5497193/exclusive-how-googles... https://www.theverge.com/tldr/2015/3/16/8227625/eric-schmidt-load-foot-in-mouth-dot-exe https://www.theverge.com/tldr/2015/3/16/8227625/eric-schmidt... TLDR: promoted well beyond his level of incompetence, but that's the American way now I guess.

    Rich sex pests engaged in a coordinated effort to destroy #metoo and protect themselves basically as soon as the movement started. You can even see a lot of this in the Epstein files. The backlash to #metoo was larger than the movement ever was (while not referring to the same event, Susan Faludi's Backlash is a great discussion of this). The effect is that a ton of these guys either experienced no consequence whatsoever or were able to lay low for a couple years and return to their positions of power.

      Well, I believe we have officially entered the find out stage... And I love how easily triggered some people are on here by saying anything bad about the Kash Patel of the tech industry. Why can't we all just quietly stop asking his opinion on anything? When's the last time he wrote a single line of code? I'm guessing 30 to 40 years and he's the expert on the future of software engineering? Oh noze, triggered again. Bite me. Typical Schmidt shit: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/trustedsecurityadvisor_ai-will-replace-most-human-developers-in-activity-7431542982216163328-WvIe https://www.linkedin.com/posts/trustedsecurityadvisor_ai-wil... Vacuous plutocrats can be pretty vacuous... Who can ever forget "Google decided that work-life balance and going home early and working from home was more important than winning." Why god why do you take this guy seriously at this point?

        I knew another Peter Thiel adjacent who offed himself (not the one I think you're referring to here) over Trump losing in 2020. Curious.
