I care about jobs far less than I care about our environment.
AI must fail.
I can assure you humanity seems dead set on destroying the environment no matter the means to get there.
I’d care about the economy if I had a real stake in it. We’re all just serfs being used up and thrown away. The medical industry sucks the last bit of wealth anyone is lucky enough to build over their life time.
But the computer stuff will be so cheap on the second hand market!
Sadly no. AI hardware does not relies on the same fundamentals as consumer hardware.
Long story short AI stuff use Float 4 or 8 because accuracy is not a factor. Games or physics simulation use Float 32 or 64.
People replying to this with “muh enterprise” don’t understand that I can still plug in a Supermicro server with the correct power input, spin up Linux, and do whatever the hell I want with my giga ultra 8x NVlink GPU 2X Xeon CPU morbillion dollar server.
Now even though it will be sold for a measly couple thousand dollars after the collapse, it doesn’t mean I can’t burn through my unemployment savings to have fun lol.
LAN party in the alley when we lose everything!
Economy crash is less damaging of a totalitarian techno-regime
Yeah, the economy has crashed, what, like 3 times in my life now?
Fuck the economy.
We can rebuild after it fails. If it seriously starts replacing people and there’s no regulation against corporations doing it we’re done
Anyone who knows anything about LLMs know that it can’t “succeed” in that way. I have no doubt the powers that be will pretend that it does anyway, hurting and killing a lot of people in the process, for power and profit.
