When I graduated a bit over 10 years ago some people were saying we'd have a permanent mars bases by now. When my parents graduated they were told they'd retire at 45 and have 3 days work week due to "automation", they're still working at 60+ today, more than back then actually
People should open history books and gain some political/historical culture, this thread is 90% wishful thinking and "if the lines continues straight from now we'll basically be gods in 5 years"
- falcor84 4mo agoThe "Yesterday's weather" argument works perfectly just up to the point when it doesn't.
- toasty228 4mo agoJust like the "if the lines continues to go up" argument... The thing is, no one has anything to gain from defending my position, but many people make a load of $$$ from selling the opposite position to gullible people

If someone running a company really believes that the line will soon stop going up and AI won't be replacing anyone, they could make the bet of strategically not investing in any AI initiatives, and instead investing in hiring and upskilling people who want to work without AI, and then just wait for the inevitable crash of all their competitors, no?
