CEO of Palantir Says AI Means You’ll Have to Work With Your Hands Like a Peasant - Divisions by zero

These morons really think AI is going to allow them to replace the technical folks. The same technical folks they severely loathe because they’re the ones with the skills to build the bullshit they dream up, and as such demand a higher salary. They’re so fucking greedy that they are just DYING to cut these people out in order to make more profits. They have such inflated egos and so little understanding of the actual technology they really thing they’re just going to be able to use AI to replace technical minds going forward. We’re on the precipice of a very funny “find out” moment for some of these morons.

They don’t even dream it up any more. They hire brains, sift through their ideas, and say “I like that. Do that.”

After that, they are experts in manipulating finances to makes their companies rich, and themselves richer, by paying the people who actually do the work, make the money, and create the shareholder value, as little as possible.

That’s called “appropriating the surplus value of labor”
I like that, explains the situation succinctly.

I can’t take credit for it. I believed the man who coined the term was named Carl something.

Or maybe he spelled his name with a K… Karl, Marquis? Marcus? Marquette? Something like that…
