You describe abolutism/authocracy. I think it goes into oligarchy/aristrocracy.

The fiefs will be data centers. The more data centers your family owns - the more powerful it is with its AI.

You will get rights to some AIs from your president-king and assign some of your data centers/AI to your vassals...

You will search for proper matches for your kids so they marry into families with a lot of data centers/AI.

Many will be less interested in contributing for free so AI billionaires could train and profit from their work...

I would expect that ideally long term in organizations all age groups should be represented proportionally to demographics curve.

Currently IT is dominated by young people and companies give every reason for seniors 'not to' train juniors...

So what do they have in mind this time?

For me situation overall goes into Middle Ages direction - birth and connections will determine everything again.

When you are born into the right family - you will inherit your family wealth, AIs and your father's job.

So when someone tells his agentic AI "solve energy crisis" - it will just kill all humans based on Altman's hints?

This is just a suggestion - AI jobs are very well paid and done at the computer.

Automating them first will bring huge savings...

Especially AI Chief jobs should be easy to automate

I am not stuck at "what". Figuring out "what" is actually majority of my work. Coding is simple once I know "what" should be done.

However from what I've tried AI has even problems with "how" producing long, too complex and hard to understand code. Producing unit tests with 1+2=4

AI tools work great when doing things for which lots of good examples are on the internet.

For me it really feels like working with a Junior Dev.

Well, I've tried R to Python migrations and the code produced was crap.

I'm skilled, experienced developer but my customers provide no specification other that "Our data scientist wrote it in R, we want it in Python."

Simple apps or unit tests - it did work with some tweaks. But anything more complex produced 4x more code than it should and it would be hell to maintain that...

It did not... ?

I wonder why... they should know best how to do it and yet they have not...

seriously... For me so far AI is just a better interface to web/stack overflow... and still generating lots of crap...

Sure it saves time on some simple things like unit tests generation but even there it has some issues...

Just the fact that EU has no own major companies like Google, Microsoft or Amazon means that it is not competitive already.

So what does it have to lose?

If you work as Russian government troll spreading propaganda in the west you can still use WhatsApp in your work.

The idea is to make it harder people from the West to reach people in Russia, not trolls in Russia to reach people in the West...

... only very competent white MAGA men ...

Was the action coordinated on Signal?

FAA should be on the chat...

I can take a pill or go to a doctor. Usually office ECG confirms it.

The technology is still quite rough but in couple years it should work great.

Meah.... nothing to worry about.

The US has never been healthier than during this presidency. It is amazing how good the presidency is. He deserves Nobel Prize in Medicine for that.
If anything happens there is 3 level ironclad disease protection:

1. sue anyone complaining about it
2. threaten countries with diseases with tariffs
3. blame Biden for everything

Interesting if this could be paired with high quality VR googles.

I am a potential user - I have monitors everywhere - I am not really using my notebooks screen.

But I can see 2 problems:

1. price - though this may not be a problem once it flops and we got plenty on ebay

2. keyboard is the part that breaks most often in my case - possibly this is HP's idea too - tie PC upgrade to the part that breaks most...

Really nice statement that the need for romantic connection will sustain human labour...

It is good to know that the oldest profession in the world will still be there for us...
