Louie Mantia, Jr.I keep thinking about what the desired endgame is with AI. So you’ve made worse things with AI, but as expensive or more expensive, just with a smaller workforce. As a result, more people are out of jobs, the wealth gap widens, and people can’t afford to buy the product anymore anyway.
Jackson Hayes@louie I think that’s the point. (Specifically, the wealth gap)
@jacksonhayes sure! And then what! So you’ve made eight people hold 100% of the wealth.
The rest of us decide that currency doesn’t mean anything anymore, right? There must be a tipping point in a civilization where if the wealth gap gets too high we just stop accepting it as a currency anyway.
@louie I think it’s nothing but shortsightedness, people at the top making the money, and the tension between Them and Us grows and grows.
The foundation continues to crack and groan, and I absolutely believe there will be a tipping point. When? No idea. But it’s closer than it’s ever been, I think.
