AI can’t even crank out a decent powerpoint presentation after my giving it explicit prompts and their shit AI’s going to take over jobs? I hope their stock crashes soon!

If he keeps this up, he may have to learn to work without his head like an aristocrat.
GutterRat42@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Of course he craps on philosophers. What good is it philosophy for somebody without ethics?
obbeel@lemmy.eco.br 2 months ago
Palantir only cares about one philosophy. The “philosophy of God”. You may like some enlightenment figures like Kant or Leibniz, since the sense of hierarchy is powerful on the epoch, but that’s about it. You’re supposed to reverb/echo the “philosophy of God” or get out! Critical thinking without hierarchical thinking is just a pain on the ass for them, so you can “go home and eat our metaphysical shit” or submit to the Mathematical God which will create all the rules and philosophy we need.
I guess that’s what he means.

Hilarious that they’ve pivoted from assembly automation, which is feasible and meaningful and in fact is happening, to arts/humanities automation, which isn’t really possible when you think about how training works.
A lot of menial tasks can be automated and that’s probably fine… There’s a lot of stupid meaningless shit we have to do everyday. And maybe we could eliminate that stuff from the grind considering its all arbitrary, or maybe automate it away.
Regardless, doesn’t the idea that both sides of the aisle, vocational and office jobs, approaching automation mean that maybe we should start talking about things not costing anything anymore?

Maybe they saw too many of us identifying that the biggest problem is the rich, rather than each other, so they’re trying to hide behind a new manufactured enemy.

CEO Of Palantir is also a sociopath fascist piece of shit
minorkeys@lemmy.world 2 months ago
They’re stealing the power of information for themselves and kicking us back to manual labour jobs, until they steal that with robots too and we have zero means of engaging with the economy that controls all the world resources, so we just end up dying off, leaving them with the whole fucking planet to themselves.

We really should have gone for UBI when we had the chance. Maybe we never had the chance.
HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I was a massive proponent of UBI all the way back in like 2010. Got on to invite-only on dedicated debate spaces specifically because of my advocacy.
I’d feel vindicated if I also wasn’t so depressed about where we’re at today as a country.

Didn’t Ford’s CEO just say they wanted highschool graduates who could do math to be automotive techs making $120K a year?
Plumbers already make ridiculous amounts of money because there aren’t enough of them.
The median age in my field 5-10 years ago was 55 years old and we aren’t getting an influx of new A&P licensed techs still. The main way the Aviation industry gets it’s techs these days is the military and that’s not even a sure fire way.
Like. CEO’s doing trades when? Because he’s clearly mistaken if he thinks that it’s not going to be CEO’s and upper management people who get their jobs replaced by AI.
They keep trying to replace engineers, software devs and so on with AI at all the tech companies and then having to back out of that decision to keep things running.
matlag@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
CEOs will not be replaced any time soon, because they’re all in each other companies board and they’ll stand for each other (or more exactly from setting examples that could apply to them).
atrielienz@lemmy.world 2 months ago
You’re right. But that can only last so long.

I mean, in theory, any cheap worker could do it. But once you actually get closer to him, then maybe you decide that you want to work elsewhere immediately, urgently…

id also tell my competition to stop trying and get a real job if i felt like they were still a threat, you know, if i was an insecure, narcissistic, sociopath, with a visible coke addiction, and access to large swathes of investor capital, in an industry that fundamentally cannot turn a profit unless its through circular investment.

Whenever any one of these assholes opens their yap in public, the only response they should hear back is, “You need us. We don’t need you. Shut the fuck up.”

Capitalists are so annoying. The hubris to assume we can accelerate climate change and ignore it and everything will just be hunky dory. It’s astounding these ding dongs think they’re outside the Earth system and not a part of it.

The rest of us, he indicates, will be stuck on the assembly line, building whatever the tech companies require.
Meanwhile…
China is accelerating the rollout of fully automated “dark factories,” where production continues non-stop without lighting, human workers or shift changes. e.vnexpress.net/…/no-lights-no-workers-ai-powered…

Fine. Plumber $800 an hour. Want food? A carrot for $70. Our society can let the rich win and split into a working class economy where working folks charge working folks wages for goods and services.

We can’t do that because it takes rebellion, but we can’t have that because nine of this is Tue billionaires fault. Its poor people and minorities who are to blame for everything. We can’t rebel while every toothless illiterate hillbilly from Alabama has put on a Halloween costume and is going to other states and kicking everyone’s door in.

slaacaa@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I’m wondering if those who think that AI will replace jobs have ever used “AI” (LLM), because it’s not very good.
I’m currently leading a business project at a big corporation, and an AI chatbot solution got pushed into my scope by executives, to be delivered free to the client as a pilot (screwing with my budget). Either Copilot Studio is absolute garbage, or we have incompetent engineers, because they can’t get it to work for 3 weeks now.
I have a hunch that in order for the latest fancy models to vomit back barely useable answers, thousands of the world’s best engineers and PhD-s are sweating blood 24/7, while using computing power and consuming energy that would have been enough for a continent in 2019.
Meanwhile they are also burning money like crazy, with no sustainable business model in sight. I’m not saying LLMs are not to stay, but there will be a huge bust, and it will assfuck the economy and workers, while these idiots will get bailed out by Daddy Small Government.

They want slavery because ai taking jobs makes no economic sense and breaks labor theory of value. No human production means nothing has value. We are literally already seeing this with ai slop!
The humane solution is we get a society where that philosophy major actually gets to be a philosopher in a mostly post scarcity automated communist society… But that would mean these ghouls wouldn’t be in power so now they’re trying to tell us we need to go backwards in time to feudalism.
What an absolute fucking joke, their technology needs nationalized and given to the people, they belong in cages
phutatorius@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
and breaks labor theory of value
Labor theory of value was shown to be flawed soon after Ricardo developed it. It only works if labor input per unit value is constant. Efficiency and innovation refute it. Also, it oversimplifies the relationship between cost and value.

I’m proud to be able to work with my hands and so should anyone else who does. It doesn’t matter if it’s for a job or just around your home. Never too late to learn.
Better to know how to do for yourself instead of being a helpless dick like Alex Karp and his Ancient Aliens theory hairdo.
