>clearly the Earth can have and can survive these high levels
As if it was ever a question of the survival of the Earth? You gotta start with a straw man so that it takes time to knock this shit down.

> modern mammalian life was around millions of years ago, and they all did just fine.

modern mammalian life... My dude, mammals have been around since the Triassic. It's not a question of what life will survive, it's about the mass-catastrophe for our society and human life.

What is with these nihilists? Why can't you just be honest? If you don't care what happens to human society, that's your prerogative, but why make up stupid straw men to argue against? Just hold your position for what it is.

The sad irony is that with no hope of reproduction, this organism would kill us all rather than persist.

And I say no hope of reproduction because anyone with kids would understand the value in following long term trends.

I'm not really interested in paying wired to read it.

with something that a user actually wanted.

But you still have one because of the benefits.

All the people in this thread that are complaining already have cell phones, and the government can (and does) already access that data.

They're reflexively mad over nothing. It is a good idea.

I'm in the job market lately - no one is looking for "creativity", at least no one knows how to measure or assess it.

Mostly, you have to do book problems that you probably looked at 10 years ago in college.

But it still can't figure out I don't want constant changes to the gmail interface. Interesting. Another win for AI?

I've been on both sides of it. The entire point of the employer facing side of linkedin is to search highly qualified people - it's not that hard to weed out the shit-tier candidates, it's the entire point of the service.

All these developments in tech hiring serve to drive down the price of labor for skilled workers. LinkedIn makes it easy to get 100s if not 1000s of applications for any job. It makes talent easily searchable. It reduces friction in the market. It makes prices for labor go down.

The expressed purpose of AI language models is to reduce the number of skilled head count.

And frankly, all the "learn to code" initiatives also are for this purpose. Of course education is great, but let's not pretend the reason tech CEOs want a larger talent people is anything but reducing the price.

Of course wages are going down, the entire class of worker is under attack, and has been for years. They were too selfish to recognize that unionizing was a smart idea (classic fuck-you-i-got-mine mentality) and now the wages and jobs are on the brink of collapse.

It was a good run, you should be looking to reskill.
