The interesting thing is the advice isn’t terrible. The speaker, however, has no right delivering it.
- wccvw 6mo agoWhat delulu-land do you live in where the advice is not terrible?
- antfarm 6mo agoI find his advice rather terrible to be honest. Accepting AI and integrating it deeply into your work and life so you won't be among those made obsolete by AI will accelerate exactly that replacement process even further. Looks a lot like a new variant of self-fulfilling prophecy.
- JumpCrisscross 6mo ago> Accepting AI and integrating it deeply into your work and life so you won't be among those made obsolete by AI will accelerate exactly that replacement process even further Schmidt is paraphrasing advice around getting on a boat. Broadly speaking, if there is a green field and you're young and ambitious and not born rich, and you're able to choose whether or not to get on board, your odds are better there than wherever you are right now. The analogy with AI would be doing something few others are doing. Just "accepting AI and integrating it deeply" is closer to trend following.
- Teever 6mo agoSchmidt is admonishing people for resisting what he and others in a small group of morally deficient technocrats are coercing them to do. He's distracting people to pay no attention to the unintended consequences of their actions, distracting people from the Epstein files and the role of many of the people in his circle in them, and he's bloviating in front of a bunch of people who see through his tenuous charade.
