How can we lose?
No steering wheel, no brakes, no pedals, no decontrol over the vehicle of any kind
So who is liable in an accident? The manufacturer?
Adopt Chinese style communism
Let market thinking work, but set quotas for employment, work hours, production levels and punish those who fail to perform severely
How much legacy BS is baked into the cpu during fab that could be better spent on other things?
Seems like Microsoft needs to bifurcate windows os. One version with legacy support, and a second with a completely new code based that ditches legacy technologies completely, improves security/stability, etc. If it predates 2010 or 2020, then itâ(TM)s out.
Itâ(TM)s a bigger deal that itâ(TM)s a Chinese made chip
How do you define quality?
If AI evolves over the next couple of years to the point that it quickly generates code from a spec then ideas like software maintenance become obsolete.
Industrial process controls follow a method like this today. There are large libraries of validated software modules that are as symbolic function blocks plugged together in a ladder logic schematic. Lots of stability, efficiency, and high performance/safety levels. Every oil refinery, power plant, and chemical plant operates on such software.
The specs are the engineering part. The coding is not. You can assign people to research algorithms, and develop optimum methods, but why should humans be coding?
You are assuming that a demand will exist for human labor or skill, and that there will always be a skill one can learn or physical labor one can provide,
In the age of robotics and ai as they are being presented, that is a false premise,
Any physical work that can be done by a human today can be done by a robot. If not, explain why,
Any knowledge work that can be done by a human can be done more quickly and potentially much cheaper by an AI.
Writing code? AI is faster and cheaper.
Structural calculation? Why not AI?
Computer design? Why are humans better than AI?
The only real demand for human intellect will be on the leading edge of science, perhaps healthcare, and there are not 8 billion jobs available for that. Maybe a few million.
What he means is there will be shortages of complaint and low cost experts with specific skills that I cannot yet define
They will use that to fraudulently flood the country with cheap foreign visa labor while laying off hordes of American workers while screaming like stuck pigs about shortages
We need to beat China at AI by bulldozing our environment and violating property rights of our citizens to build it
But we also need to allow China to use our AI without limits because reasons
Make that make sense. Both cannot be true
What benefit does it provide
Short term returns for investors and a new way to target consumers with advertising
Members of the military, including marines, are surprisingly left wing
The company will be, not an individual
X box console in the cloud for a low monthly subscription. Just connect your controllers to your PC and go!
I did a long time ago and do not miss it at all. Google, meta, X, etc are based around tracking and monetizing you. Thats their purpose.
