Comment on The threats from AI are real | Sen. Bernie Sanders [15:02]
jali67@lemmy.zip 5 hours agoTo 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.

If you don’t see AI replacing many roles, yet you know that LLM’s are not what many seem to think they are, text generators and not AGI, then it seems you don’t believe that AGI will ever happen.
Technology will continue to develop for decades and maybe centuries to come. To only see the short term possibilities is to forget how quickly technology advances.
And even just limiting the discussion to the short-term, what makes you think billionaires aren’t taking advantage of the hype and coercing governments to forego safety and regulation? Maximizing profit over enhancing the lives of common man?

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