Forgive my ignorance, what is a tankie?

Billionaire owner caters to bullshit ideals in their opinion pieces all the time. Lots of great journalists work for them and The Athletic though.

Because the internet isn’t real life and plenty of people know how to talk to people, including those of the opposite sex.

Yeah that’s been the way of Republicans the last few decades.

Shouldn’t be. Glad the world is waking up to these vile tech companies. US government needs to stop coddling them too.

True. It’s not just Trump that feels this way either. Lots of American oligarchs and groups like Claremont and Heritage that support this shit.

Trump admin shoots the U.S. in the foot every chance it gets

17 assuming those are basketball or loose athletic shorts

Don’t worry. The people on LinkedIn and tech executives tell us it will transform anything soon!

I hope he gets something like pancreatic cancer and suffers for a few months.

Supposedly, a lot of “real Americans” ditched the NFL the last few years. He might need to go after NASCAR and NHL too.

AI slop is ruining everything *

Well because he snaps his fingers and says it is a hoax. His followers just blindly trust anything he says.

What’s option 3?

Translation: “it’s time we go experience enshittification like most tech and social media companies.”

What you’re disregarding is Covid era over hiring, higher interest rates, and the world wide tariffs that killed off the labor market. There was a downward trend well before OpenAI launched Chat and kicked off the LLM/AI hype train.

You are correct. I do not see AGI happening. Technology does advance but we humans have limitations, as does the world we live in.

To me, it is just making the M7 stocks meme stocks. None of them have proven themselves yet. It is all just hype currently. Part of the reason for their layoffs is literally to refocus on AI, not because AI replaced their roles. I question how this plays out longer term once interest rates are dropped and tariffs are likely struck down. I don’t see AI replacing many roles.

Yes but the hiring slowdown started well before LLMs became mainstream and the current labor market freeze occurred right after the tariffs were enacted. Currently, it seems to be an excuse for a poor labor market with some hope it just might pay off. However, it every study I’ve seen from MIT and Stanford, it has not materialized anywhere to be more efficient than workers or coming close to displacing people. Most CEOs are not exactly tech experts either.

Forgive my ignorance, where has AI (particularly the LLMs) proven to be useful and effective to the point of displacing workers? While I understand it has use cases (drug discovery, etc.) they usually add to what information experts add onto it. I don’t see this just displacing corporate roles. How do you see it? Every single study I’ve seen, LLMs have not been proven to be effective. They still get things wrong, hallucinate and still need to be checked to verify they’re correct on any important work.

Wow— great statement. You really have a way with words. Would you like me to suggest another way for you to phrase that statement?

Did you make it beyond high school?

Correlation isn’t causation
