Comment Re: Tech breakthroughs mean more jobs. (Score 1) 124

So true. The Silicon Valley is twisting what the invention here also. By constantly hyping AI, they are giving out an impression that autonomous thinking machines are a corner away. The best LLMs we now have is decades away from what they are projected as. I am not undermining the value of LLMs, but we need to take a good look at what it is and how it can progress us forward. Its utility is definitely not for eliminating jobs or saving cost. It would add to the economy and scale of conducting businesses in the future. We need CEOs who can dream that dream( not the bunch of shareholder kissers)

The glorified AI around are only pattern matchers. We are not going to find AGI for another 50-100 years(even more). The current situation is nothing but a bubble that Is going to come back and bite us soon. But we already have invested billions and trillions into this eventhough we are well past the wins. This is going to be a lot painful than the dot com bust.

Besides these I think the nepotism and opportunism has eroded the quality of people substantially in the industry. I know several top brass computer engineers sleeping rough outside the industry or at low rung jobs while artists, photographers, lawyers etc adoring the program managers and director or VP roles and proudly setting the strategy and roadmaps for the companies and industry. What a world!

The disconnect I often see is that the world is thinking that Trump is taking the wrong path while Trump is trying to change the path itself. Report after report talks about the economic or monetary losses the tariffs could cause, and yet he comes out coolly with not concerned at all because in his mind this is a total transformation and not a deviation. This wonâ(TM)t stop here and will run its course to whatever it may end with.

Good observation. There are all sorts of divides in India and casual racism is quite common. These days a common broad divide is based on religion and most of the minorities get the stick from the Hindu Majority in India and now abroad as well. The funny thing is Christians are a minority in India and they get actively sidelined even in a Christian majority countries like US by Hindus(of course systematically and nicely with a smile).

Not necessarily. Microsoft , if it ever feels shortage for patents, can always buy other companies who have those. As far as the OS goes, they already have a lead in the business, and the best strategy for them is to copy original works from other competitors and provide them to their wider customer base.

I attribute my success to intelligence, guts, determination, honesty, ambition, and having enough money to buy people with those qualities.
