Funny how generative ai will take all the jobs but not the leadership positions lmfao

It’s really hard to do the whole career ladder song and dance when you see that the higher you climb, the more useless you are

Have a really hard time seeing this people as humans considering the fact that these class traitors are playing second fiddle to wage theft. Scum

amazing to watch the whole scam exposed for what it is

just further proof that in the US, CEOs are inflation just as much as they cause inflation.

My boss recently asked me to create an automated way to track employees who are entering time dishonestly and I basically just ignored him.

Every industry is trying to embrace this generative ai shit and I’m praying it blows up in their face. Also convinced that tech is by far the most harmful industry today aside from engineering (I would say business, but tech and business are basically intertwined at this point ).

I hate tech people so much lmao

"Yeah the dictatorship of the proletariat actually gets useful things done while the free and open democracy is free to open itself up to opportunists looking to scam other opportunists because there's no ideological coherence."

There are some funny replies to some of those comments, though.

How do we know the Chinese company wasn't lying about its performance? Or maybe they stole it.

Paraphrasing from someone's reply:

Seeing some of these comments from Meta explains a lot.

😂

lol the copes are amazing

Admitting anything out of China is real would mean they have to admit that the dogshit we're eating in the west is not because of anything "natural" and we could actually do better.

Of course the problem is capitalism

What are the minimum specs for running it locally? Wondering if it'd be worth the effort for a personal project.

I want to try reading the paper but I'm afraid it's going to be confusing for someone who's not deeply in the academic space of AI. But maybe I can get deepseek to help me understand the parts I don't lol.

dismantle the agricultural base of the Australian economy

I was trying to test its ability to make anything sounding sensible by asking about how a book's take on a topic related to a party program, but was genuinely surprised that it shut me down and gave me the "out of scope" when I asked it to apply Xi Jinping's theories to a party in my country. I guess it makes sense that they don't want to let an AI talk for Xi, but I figured it would at least say like "Xi's theories focus on development in a sustainable way, and this party does not" or something. But it just said "nope" lol

Still pretty damn good at the actually good use cases of AI though

the US gov can always cut off US companies from using the services of (much cheaper and better) Chinese AI companies. in fact I would be surprised if they didn't at some point.

I'm not an economics guy or versed in the intricacies of stocks. So, that disclaimer out of the way, one of the things about the 2008 collapse is that there were assets that corresponded to the junk bonds etc that propped up the whole bubble. Houses were a big one, but also companies that made things like automobiles. Even the banks themselves served a purpose in the economy outside of their bubble-related shenanigans. Tangible assets and important roles. The necessity of these things was one of the justifications for the bailout.

AI doesn't really make anything. There is no corresponding real world counterpart to an AI generated thing. It's not like a car or a house or a plot of land or a potato. It exists in the wholly digital realm, suspended on threads of electricity. Oh sure there's server farms, there's electricity costs, there's all the usual externalities you expect which are all real and tangible but there's no tangible product at the end of the conveyer belt. There's just more belt! It's a machine that makes machines that make machines etc etc.

So yes we should all be very suspicious of this entire thing. While the techbros concentrate on how high they can stack the boxes marked "AI" we should be aware that the boxes are all empty. It's actually kinda terrifying for 2 reasons. First, a giant financial collapse sucks to live through and I'd rather not do it again. Second, it is very scary the powers that be allowed all this to happen.

so all fiat is fictitious money they can pump it forever until a day comes where the US dollar is not desired because nothing useful can be purchased with it. the whole gov promoting crypto thing [insert Kamala twitter image of promoting crypto to black men here] is a way to strengthen the position of the dollar. money needs to be converted into USD in order to buy cryptos on exchanges. it's continual increase in price makes capital want to enter it, which requires the purchase of dollars.

Well where else are they gonna put their money? Deepseek is open source lol.

I very much expect the AI bubble to pop in the near future, and DeepSeek goes a long way towards ensuring this happens by completely breaking the business model of western AI companies. Nvidia and AI basically carried the whole market, and now it turns out that you can do the same thing with a fraction of the resources. That means nobody needs huge volumes of latest and greatest Nvidia chips anymore.

indeed :)

It also shows up those Shanghai liberals recently saying they need to open up to investment from Meta, Open AI, Google and such because of AI. I know they also said to connect to the world through FB, X, etc, but now the AI excuse looks laughable.
