Before that it was ‘big data’. remember that?

It won’t replace jobs, anymore than industrial robots in factories replace them.

‘big data’ ‘crypto’ etc.

AI is just the next ‘big thing’ that amounts to nothing. 90% of what anyone says in the press/media is total nonsense. And most AI researchers are downplaying the hype because they know it’s all bullshit and AI will ultimately not be a major change anymore than navigation systems in cars was. It is merely convenience and those that ‘rely’ on it will end up in trouble.

It’s a complementary technology, not a revolution.

the majority of usa populace. most folks in America believe in a just world where those who are good are rich and should be rewarded and those who are bad are poor and should be punished.

hence why when a billionaire breaks the laws nobody cares, but when a poor person steals food they should be locked up.

they also believe in zero-sum thinking, where if anyone gets anything it came at the expense of someone else. they have no concept of how economics and life actually works. just consumed by jealousy and bitterness and assuming if others didn’t ‘take’ from them they would have more.
