A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

What trillion dollar problem is it solving? In the minds of investors, that “problem” is paying people for labor.

Even when the same people need to get money from people they don't wanna pay (or there aren't any buyers), this is still the case.

So if GDP doesn't come from nature (which it shouldn't, at least net shouldn't), the system cannot work with financial wealth being the only goal.

But it can work long enough to destroy much of everything everywhere.
