  • In the long run, there is very little a machine can’t do. Though in some cases we have not quite invented that machine yet.

    And right now the job replacement is happening at an exponentially higher level than the industrial revolution everyone compares it to.

    This isn’t every cobbler going to work in a shoe factory.

    Its not like everyone replaced by AI can go become a programmer or a “prompt engineer”, especually when in many cases, the AI also already does that job too.

    A world where we no longer need to work is fine, but we as a society are not working towards that, because we allow the hoarding of wealth and power instead of punishing it forciboy, brutally, swiftly. We just let that corruption fester and grow.









  • Their security people are just people too.

    If the world collapses, do you think a couple of meatheads with guns and poasibly families of their own are going to keepntaking orders and protecting these jokers? Especially when money becomes meaningless but a bunker of food and supplies isn’t?

    Those security groups, at best, will remain loyal to each other, as they take over the bunkers.

    Hopefully instead of outright ending their former bosses they throw the rest of us peons a bone and throw those ex billionaires out the airlock to the rest of us.

    I say ex billionaires becsuse when everything collapses and money is meaningless well, a billion dollars may as well be 10 dollars.
