Get paid to fight AI
 
Honestly, AI is going to slow hiring, and then companies will stop hiring new positions. I don't think it's going to be an obvious "we are laying off 20% of the company due to AI being amaze-balls". Yeah yeah like 30 very large companies are laying off employees saying it's due to AI but... if you look at their public finances they're flat growth whereas S&P 500 is up 999% (or whatever, it's a lot) so they're saying what they have to say to keep their job as CEO.
 
My prediction is 97% of "job replacement" by AI will simply be the slow march of progress as the one really talented guy on his team, slowly replaces his coworker's workstreams via automation, something that was going to happen anyways, just 10 years later than the current timeline. You can't really legislate that kind of slow motion trainwreck. It's very easy to do quarter after quarter of 499 employees reduction in workforce to avoid layoff public notices etc. And businesses will win in the courts under "public notices for less than 499 employees is excessive burden on businesses" etc etc.

Wow, someone from the future. What is 2917 like?

I'm not from the future. It's just that time is cyclical.

There are various hypotheses to explain it, such that the universe is cyclical or that we're stuck in a time loop. But the most broadly accepted hypothesis is that a prior civilization collapsed at the end of year 32,767, and it has taken us almost 35,000 years to get back to where we are now.

Of course, our calendar doesn't allow for a year 0, so we may have an off-by-one error. But then again people celebrated the millennium at the end of 1999, so maybe there's a tacit assumption that there was in fact a year 0.

What tripe. Heart surgeons? Structural engineers? You sound like a cliche machine. Please, find me an example of this fantasy. Spend the tokens, bitch.

When I registered for college, during the orientation they said that pre-meds are the group most frequently caught cheating.

Money is a big motivator. And not always for the good.

Submission + - About that DC terror plot

An anonymous reader writes: How come this disappeared from the news so fast? When I search for updates on the story all I can find is repeats of the week-old stories of five arrests, and some mentions that their trial may be held outside DC.

What about the other score or so of conspirators they were looking for? Are they still on the lam? Have the drones and explosives been found?

I've been laughing at people who claim that the assassination attempts were fake, but this is really out of bandwidth. Was there really a plot, or was it just some Stupids talking large on the internet?
