This guy is basically saying a lot of people will have to die (starvation) for the good of the ecconomy. When have I heard that before? Seems like there was a plague recently, and they said this very thing then too. What was it again?

What a stupid fuckwit. We have no leaders capable of stepping into the future and making more. Everyone turns to the past because they have no vision of a future anyone wants to buy into. This is what a system without meritocratic order creates. Intelligence is not hereditary in humans, yet wealth is. Amplifying this stupidity and backwardness is idiotic nonsense. We are nowhere near finishing the age of scientific discovery. There are many many chapters left until biology is a fully understood engineering corpus and our principal technology. Cowards of dystopianism are pathetic fools. I throw rocks.

The first people that stop holding back the bar will own the future. Fuckwits see reduction. A real leader sees the opportunity to add more. Do not lay off workers, do more. What someone had to spend to make a movie, now makes a franchise. Until that is reality, AI has done nothing. Laying off workers is easy and fools halfwit investors. Building more and leading with vision takes a real person with meritocratic validity.

I’m really confused why this is posted in response to the article?

Are you saying Hinton is holding back OpenAI from replacing people in the labor market? That OpenAI and others should be left alone and criticism should stop?

To say people need to be replaced is cultural stupidity. It is an opportunity to lead. When that opportunity is not taken, when it is not invested in growth, when it is extracted, failure follows as real leaders emerge. Meritocratic order is the most important factor totally absent from the American zeitgeist and leadership.

I am commenting on the propaganda value being shit.
