This repeat story has been pulled off from the front page now. Adrepeatum.

But hey, that's not the intent.

They are certainly not counting on the likes of you, who number in the tens of thousands, if not millions. It's meant for the rest of the folks, who want to be seen as coooool. Toting iphones and talking to their agents wielding credit cards.

Buying Call options and writing Puts.

This could be a game changer. Rogue AI agents swiping credit cards and maxing out is the perfect antidote to Credit CARD Act, that sucked profits out of the card industry and put many out of job.

Because all these non-tech folks have been brainwashed by the "AI" companies to think AI is real, its here and with them. All these tech CEOs laying off people in the name of AI has further reinforced the idea in the minds of these tech-uneducated politicians.

There is no competition here. Neo runs on macOS, while XPS runs on Windows. That's such a big drawback, that nothing can help Dell here. It's a lost chase for XPS.

This. This is how Congress kills Capitalism in the name of "Freedom, Liberty and American Values". As Raghuram Rajan put it, we have to save "Capitalism from the Capitalists."

I thought that one sentence prompt, described many complete Hollywood action movies.

We have been, and are still continuing to be, in one of the longest bull runs in the modern history. People learn from experience. By water hosing money on every economic problem during the past ~2 decades, we have cultivated a generation of folks that perceive, "... a guarantee of affluence and employability."

Upturns and downturns are what make people robust, pragmatic and down-to-earth. To those who are new, welcome to your belated "downturn" (not really one actually). Believe me, things will be all right. 19 out of 20 people won't be unemployed due to AI. In the short term, may be. But in the long term, it's economically not feasible for the AI companies and the economy they too are part of. For those of us who have been around much longer to have seen many recessions and been unemployed, during the good times we build robust capital buffers, more than enough to tide over the bad times. I simply don't see that pragmatism in many of the newer generation. It's not their fault.

These companies want to scare you and me to the bone for fun. The truth is, they cannot survive without you and me onboarding their AI platform.

You cannot have 1 acre of grass land support 1000 herbivores, which in turn support 10000 carnivores. Because energy from the sun goes to the grass, a small fraction of which goes to the herbivores, a small fraction of which goes to the carnivores. So, for every 100 herbivores only 1 carnivore can survive.

Same with the flow of money in an economy. If something has to become a platform, the ones on top of the platform only pass on a fraction of the money they make. If the AI as a platform has to survive, the apps or whatever is on top, has to make much more. Just like the hardware platform on which AI is built can survive only if AI makes a lot more that what hardware makes.

Or else the entire economic model, including the concept of money will have to be done away with.

“Reversion to the mean”
is probably what you meant.

85 kids!? Whachew sayin? Is he some kind of a perpetual oscillating pelvic pendulum?

Are you hinting at Sam Altman?

If you believed these fools in the early 2000's, by now none of us would have been owning any cars. We would all be summoning robotaxis for our commutes. And here they are driving themselves into floods in spite of remote-control operators in 3rd world countries/
