Let’s see this octogenarian email his speech to me as a PDF, and then I’ll listen to him about tech issues.

God I love this man. However. Rich people using automation to further rob the poor isn’t highly strange. It’s perfectly explainable as class warfare and psychopathy. No need to involve the supernatural

When working class can no longer work two jobs to support themselves, we will find the time to revolt

It’s coming for the Chinese manufacturers jobs. That’s also why Bernie is making this boomer stand against the robots.. he’s and communism go together like peas and carrots

What I don’t understand is what is the ceos end game with AI if you put everyone out of work, nobody has the money to buy any of their goods.

Huh. They seem to care deeply when they say immigrants are taking the jobs, but don’t care one bit if it’s a billionaire’s AI company doing it.

Oh great. Another great political opinion captured by someone that gets completely rolled in politics and ignored as some firebrand and cant win.

2 thousand contributions in a year, no comments, active in 525 subs. This is an agitprop bot, block and report.

Yeah. It’ll be great because no one will be able to afford the products and services anymore so they won’t be able to afford the AI 🙂

Talk of an apocalypse of jobs is over-hyped.
First, the LLMs (it isn’t ‘Artificial Intelligence’ despite the constant labelling) is incredibly limited in what they can do. It is possible to do incredible things with it ([designing things for example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Xx1GXjRbMk)), and that will obviously increase workloads for humans, and thus jobs, not decrease. But [even basic things it is clueless, and just pattern recognising.](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/T-SP_z_4-e0) The computing capacity is limited, human imagination is not. All LLMs is going to do is increase workloads by throwing up new things to manage.
Second, revolutions in technology are always thought to “get rid of jobs”, but that isn’t how economies operate. There is a certain amount of money sloshing around in the economy every day. It is how much and how fast money is moving that determines economic activity, and that is determined by how many people have the wealth to utilise each day and that is determined by wealth distribution (which thank God Sanders never stops banging on about because wealth distribution in the US is terrible and that inequality is the biggest impost to a healthy economy that creates full employment). If it was technology alone that determined what jobs existed and not money, there would be no jobs after the industrial revolution, or the computer revolution. Instead, the human population has grown to billions and there still is plenty of work for everybody.

As long as there is a good distribution of wealth there will be plenty of jobs. Wealth distribution is something that really does relate to r/HighStrangeness – [in the US the bottom 50% of the population has 2.5% of the wealth,](https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/z1/dataviz/dfa/distribute/chart/) while [in Australia the bottom 40% have 18%.](https://povertyandinequality.acoss.org.au/inequality/) So a question for r/HighStrangeness is, which is really the wealthier nation?
