I am 60 years old. When computers started, I was told the work week would be reduced to 4 days a week. Today, people I know must work more hours, not less.
True and i see more and more people with a second job.
A lot more people work shorter hours than when I was growing up. In fact I think the 40-hour work week is only held together artificially in many places.
Inflation is a hella'va thing. Thanks Federal Reserve Act.
And when Bernie tries to reduce the work week, a bunch of losers come out to call him crazy and double down that we need to work EVEN HARDER
yep
If they said AI can now replace all CEO's of companies so that they can run better. It would be a different tune they would be singing.
Actually an ai that was being developed for “cost cutting” recommended ceos be fired first before anyone else.
They rewrote it to no longer consider such positions.
Facts 💯
@@rokusho6667The thing A.I. proselytizers and cultists ignore, everything A.I. does is still at the behest of humans at the wheel.
And those humans with the most money only care about maximizing profit, not helping humanity.
AI was like the worker in the factory produce the profit. The CEO just produces HR complaints and squanders profit with excessive salary.@@rokusho6667
the letters A and I would vanish from the alphabet
It will give us more free time to think about things like "man I'm hungry" "remember when we used to live inside" "I wish I could go to the doctor, but I don't have insurance anymore". So much free time.
just capitalism things
@@kylezo 🤣 Yeah, they don't give a F____ I've been to some of their houses (they have a separate drive for non-humans) and anyone that owns a Picasso doesn't care about how the tech they use gets made or how much it costs. The only thing they care about is if their *assistant* can use it so they don't have to do anything important at all.
The BS never ends
Yeah, I really miss having a job and self-esteem. Thanks AI!
Silly rabbit, insurance isn't synonymous with healthcare.
The World is a much better place when Jon Stewart is hosting the Daily Show. Jon IS the daily show.
It is that simple. Great comment!
I was laid off from an office job in 2006 and had three years of self-actualizating me time before I could find full-time work again. You'd be surprised at how little time I spent creating art and how much time I spent worried that I'd become homeless.
I experienced something very similar. Even if you have enough savings to survive a few years, that’s not near enough to stop freaking about your future. I was more stressed jobless than when working full-time because I had no security.
It's why we need something like universal basic income.
UBI really has to become a standard sooner than later. But that would need a functional tax system that hits the rich.
@@RealShinpinwe need a universal revolution.
The public should be the ones profitting off AI since all the knowledge of an AI came from us in the first place. It should be AI working for us, not us starving while the AI works for the companies.
@@winzyl9546 I agree.
It should also all be open source.
The problem with AI is not that it can do the work of employees for them
It's the fact the corporation thinks it can do the employees's work for them
It will.
There is a *huge* difference between “using AI, I can do this work twice as fast” and “using AI, this job now takes half the manpower.” It really is about mindset and ethics in an unregulated world, and it’s horrifying how terrible corporations seem to be on both fronts
This. It's obviously nowhere close to ready for prime time, but the tech bros and those they've bamboozled are going to replace jobs with this bug filled crapfest that they're calling AI but is in no way actually intelligent because as it turns out, they don't care if it works, they only care that it's cheaper.
But can it replace Congress?
If I could only Up Vote this more than once. What a great answer!
You know when tech bros call everyone a luddite?
Never forget that the Luddites didn't just randomly hate machines. They smashed machines that were used by rich robber barons to produce garbage products in dangerous conditions without training and appropriate compensation. They weren't mad at machines, they were mad at their standards of living being deliberately and maliciously torpedoed for the sake of profits and power.
Finally someone gets it
Great point. Technological advances are inevitable, but how it is implemented is crucial.
Long Live Ned Ludd!!!
Exactly. The Luddites want to make better things, crafts better, and share the knowledge.
But the tool is used to make worse things, uncrafts their craftmanship, and monopolizes the business.
Those who don't learn history are doomed to repeat it.
Just because Safety Regulations are written in blood, doesn't mean I accept someone needs to suffer for people to learn common sense.
@@defaulted9485 well said
Had an IT instructor (in 2000) tell us there will never be a need for a system drive larger than 8GB's. People know what they know, but they rarely see the future accurately.
Pretty bad take from the teacher. I had someone who asked me how small could phones get, rhetorically and they didn't think they would get thinner ... I said to at least a pane of glass in our lifetime.
They said that about the old MFM drives too. They weren't really for consumers, pretty spendy, and I think the biggest one that you'd "never need" was 20MB formatted. Wasn't even that much back then, as the 8in floppies held 360KB. Lot of money to replace 60 floppies.
My first computer in the late 90s had 3GB of space. My step dad told me ill never need a bigger drive the rest of my life lol.
Well another way of looking at that statement is, how much of that data is an absolute necessity?
Continuity bias in action.
"Raise prices astronomically and also fire everyone" is an extremely sound business model and there's no way this can go wrong.
lol, word. We want to replace workers (and their potential jobs) with AI. As many as possible (i.e., create as much unemployment as possible) in order to maximize profit. Then, we are going to want all of these poor, jobless people, with LOTS of free time on their hands, to consume, consume consume with all that money they're mak-. . . . hmmmm. . . .wait a minute. . . .uh-oh.
Its not meant to be that way and it wont. I don't understand the fear of AI. The Ludites who revolted against the industrial revolution back in the 18th century were saying exactly, and I mean exactly, what Jon is saying. That this new fangled technology was coming to take their job and everything would fall apart because of it. While disruptions absolutely did happen in the early industrial revolution people very quickly adapted. Take weavers. One weaver on a machine loom could do 100 times what a traditional weaver could do. Did 99% of weaver jobs disappear? No, the number of weaver jobs increased. The firms that bought industrial looms were able to make more product cheaper and hired even more people to make and sell that product. Markets adjust, its what they do. We should easy that adjustment as much as we can with things like universal basic income and higher taxation of the wealthy, but technology isn't something to always be afraid of.
A.I could help certainly help you. You could use it to look up examples of the fallacy of false equivalence @@TheFireGiver
@@TheFireGiver He mentioned it here, this time automation is not coming in a matter of decades, but months, and to nearly every job except just a few. The life expectation plunged during the IR before plummeting later on. For those displaced, many didn't get to live to see the tech they were replaced with bear fruit for them to enjoy. They died earlier, much of the reasons being the harsh conditions they were subject to, and low pay. Like them, you are in the transition phase, and of something much larger, you can't just imagine yourself a taking 20 year leap in the future from now, looking back, and judging from such a place. You are here for the immense collapse we all will be going through.
@@TheFireGiverAll that productivity has created a lot of litter and pollution-I mean consumer products and environmental byproducts. Technology might not be the enemy but it's not really been a net positive. We live longer now, and people in the future will surely have a worse quality of life (from things like cellular-level plastics).
Companies keep forgetting, if you keep replacing/reducing your workforce, there won't be enough people who can afford to buy your products. You can't keep upping your profit margins forever...
not their problem. because the government will foot the bill for the poor. but companies will also cry "don't tax us more" to cover those expenses
greed is horrible sin, and way too popular
That’s why credit cards were introduced
Bingo!
In my experience, the technology stresses out the few workers who remain, not only when they malfunction, but also when companies reduce the workforce faster than the technology can keep up with. Then the employees are forced to be more productive or decrease the quality of their work. Customer satisfaction then decreases and employee burnout increases. Often companies predictions of how technology will effect the workforce and consumers is not accurate. Wishful thinking and focus on stock value are two of the causes. I also think the quality of management is decreasing.
Henry Ford had a take on this…
SO GLAD to have you back, Jon!!!!
Have on Bassem YOussef next Jon
Oof, your iq is showing
Why ? was MSNBC not making you cult enough ?
It was never about AI. This is just a new chapter of the Bourgeoisie vs the Proletariat.
Always felt it, needed to say it.
Less work and more bills
Easy there, Che :)
Always about the establishment monied "interests", the "stake-holders", always we the masses vs the entitled few. They are NOT our friends, our allies never have been never will be. Sooner People realize this before it's too late.
Running a GPU server is not so prohibitively expensive that a person can't build it over time on a working salary. Pooled in a community or a coop, you could be building and training your own models with zero influence from corporate AI development. Certainly they'll continue to build bigger and better tech but it doesn't mean that your community scale applications won't improve the means of production for anyone using them compared to what you had before. In your analogy it's still workers developing the technology but having to pass on profits, but it's still the fruit of someone's labor, intellect and expression and won't stop being valuable once property and wealth is reappropriated
I'm reminded of the Twilight Zone episode where the manager of a factory begins introducing automation to increase production and lower costs. It ends with the entire factory automated, the entire workforce laid off, and the people who once ran the factory are too impoverished to afford anything the factory produces.
Henry Ford, the Uber capitalist, paid his people enough so they could buy his cars, and invented the vacation so they would have a reason to drive them. And he didnt even have an MBA, think of that.
EXACTLY!
Rod Serling didn't pull any punches when it came to the moral lessons of his story. We could use someone like him again.
YOU ARE OBSOLETE!
Simple logic and math. Corporations need customers. Apparently that needs to be explained to all the CEO's. I wonder what exactly they learned in business school.
Jon Stewart coming back to the daily show was the best thing to happen in 2024
❤❤❤❤
He is one of the few reasons to live in 2024. Jon is a worldwide treasure just like David Attenborough
Exactly! There must be something truly horrible happening this year before I remove it from the top position, simply because of this. I have missed him so much, because not even... a certain English gentleman can bring out that particular sarcasm and irony, like Jon can.
Show of hands who has used Siri in the last month? Yeah that's what I thought.
I haven’t, creeps me out!
I don't need AI for creativity, I want it to clean my house, wash dishes, windows, put on a new roof & a screened-in porch 😊
So many people in this country are absolutely UNHINGED
Yeah but that's only if you think so much like a human lol
I think that a much bigger problem is not so much that AI will take away jobs (and it will) but the fact that massive corporations will continue to charge for their products or services as if they were _still_ employing the hundreds of people replaced by that AI.
But prices must come down as people cant afford anything. Millenials cant afford to buy own house? Soon they cant afford to rent one.
No, that's *not* a bigger problem than huge swaths of the workforce being unable to buy food and pay rent.
@@Mutrunalle you think corporations and the rich care?
That’s exactly why they are so excited for it, more profitable overall
The only thing they have to do is appease the shareholders and boost profits. Get ready for the psychopath executives to absolutely crush humanity under their productivity heel
AI should first replace CEOs ... their job is pretty easily replaceable by a general talking head
And what better candidate can manage stock prices? It's the perfect solution!
The only people who are guaranteed not to lose their jobs are executives and members of the board. And why should they, look at the excellent job they have done creating the end of labour AND corporate enterprise.
Sure, Max Headroom for CEO
Maybe that's what it'll take to finally force an Unconditional Basic Income or AI Dividend for all. Traditional "jobs" should not be required for our survival, when AI can and will out compete so many.
Considering the amount of stock they already own I'm sure they would actually be fine with that. All the infinite money glitch but none of the work
He didn't get to discuss AI on Apple TV, glad he did on The Daily Show.
I didn't know Jon Stewart was back! (I'm in Australia) This is awesome! He is the funniest guy ever! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
He's baaaaaaaaaack
I was a programmer and systems analyst for more than 25 years and not everyone can program, even many programmers I have worked with were terrible at it. Currently chatbots I’ve dealt with claiming to be customer service reps were really terrible at pretending to be human and also pretty poor at answering any other than dead obvious questions.
Pretty much. Automating customer service is the worst. The entire reason I'm contacting customer support, is that I have a problem the company neglected to anticipate in their documentation already, and I need a person to understand my question and think outside the box to help resolve it.
Programming is incredibly easy. It's so easy that children under 10 can, and very often do, teach themselves. It's so easy that it's boring, which leads a lot of people to dramatically over complicate simple things, given the illusion of real complexity, when it's really just bad design ... or bad tools ...
Just one example of how ridiculous things are these days. Open up VS and start a new console C# project and see how many files and directories are created. It's beyond absurd.
Keep in mind those chatbots have only been around for a few years. Give them another few years, and their improvement will be exponential.
@@recompile i want to learn so badly but i look at it and it feels like a foreign language one that i can't begin to grasp and i've been using a computer since DOS i knew as much as html and then never needed to code again but now i look at C++ and even trying to learn feels insane if it's so easy where do I start
IVR's were bad enough.
We gunna end up expanding CR teams to cope with AI complaints
I love that train and retrain segment. You will rarely find a job that will train you. I had to get decades of experience in my field before employers would even consider me. On my first job I received ZERO training and was expecting to spend my personal time learning the ins and outs of my company's infrastructure with ZERO resources afforded to me. That and they never said happy birthday.
And the hard part about that is realizing all the questions you don’t even know to ask and that you kinda need to develop a frame work of types of topics those questions are about so you can at least figure them out upfront
@@DaveE99 Spot on.
I hope AI will remember to say happy birthday....😅
Many happy belated birthdays to you! 🎉
Once was plenty😉
so refreshing to have Jon back
Yes !Randomly scroling and seeing Jon Stewarts daily show is back! I couldnt preaa play fast enough.
I remember during covid when we all had the extra time off work to better ourselves and we all emerged as a more united, well educated, emotionally developed, higher thinking societ... oh wait.
You got me thinking about when everyone started being nicer to each other on social because "we're all having a hard time dealing with lockdown", I don't think it lasted 2 weeks
Yeah... humans have these things called ego's
Right? You'd think the billionaire class would take a look at the social unrest during the early pandemic when huge numbers of people were out of work and had nothing to do but rage. Their arrogance will be their downfall.
No we had right wingers promote savage individualism
💯 So very this. As someone who has been disabled for over 25 years and have had times that I was housebound for much longer than 18 months, it was my hope, and the hope of many people in the chronic illness community, that the “Normies” would come out of the pandemic with a little bit more compassion and understanding about how some of us have to live year in and year out, many in pain. But no. We got a bunch of alcoholics with depression and anxiety. I am scared for what’s coming….
I watched this man as a teenager during the Bush admin and it is what got me interested in politics and out for my first vote when I was old enough and here I am now, all these years later and he's returned to inspire all new generations and I'm here for it!
Yikes 🤦🏽♂️
@@JohnnyDelco what? 🙂
Problems are technical, not political. Politicians have no problem solving skills.
And all these years later and things have only gotten worse. WAY WORSE.
I totally misseed the youn Jon Stewart & Colbert😮
There is nobody better than this man to do this show. Pls never leave, Jon.
Jon channeled that inner George Carlin in there, that prompt engineer as "Vice President of Question Input" and janitors as the "Doctor of Mopping." Such great lines and delivery.
He's wrong tho. Being a prompt engineer is a skill and it takes knowledge to do it right
The worst thing by now is that AI is replacing high-paid jobs rather than risky low-paid ones, so those CEOs' messages are clear: we only want cheap human slaves, not respected professionals.
Some of us still need to dig holes or run screws. Even if building a bridge makes less that running a cash till. That's why self check out is a thing and boots are still walking jobsites.
This is the most horrifying part to me-- They skipped right over using AI to make dehumanizing, dangerous, low-paid, and mentally taxing jobs obsolete, and instead went ahead and made every extremely lucrative job that can be done comfortably behind a desk completely redundant.
At this rate, it's literally just a matter of time before every one of us who works at a computer is effectively obsolete. And self-driving cars will be gobbling up all the jobs in transportation.
Imagine the world's brain power not bound in financial law for companies, but being used actual useful stuff.
@@nesamdoom The cashier jobs are getting replaced by self service kiosks because big business doesn’t want to pay for the labor. Construction jobs will also one day be replaced with ai. Most likely by a drone or a Boston Dynamics operated by ai. In the end you too will end up servicing the ai somehow
@@Nubby_Nubcakes like pre-fab
Replace most of management with AI and hire more production staff and pay them living wages. Think of how much money you could save by getting rid of CEOs
AI is best suited to replace simple decision jobs like executive and management positions.
Totally agree, CEOs are the most expensive and unimportant part of any company
@@chernobyl169 This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard LOL. "Decision making" is one of the most important aspects of a job and you definitely want a person, or a board of people, deciding what happens in a company. One wrong decision by an AI could tank your company. The most replaceable jobs at a company are the repetitive jobs, particular jobs that involve a computer and are also repetitive and non-creative. Decision making is inherently creative. All the data filers and paper pushers and phone callers can be replaced because that's a repetitive job that's already done on a computer. The jobs that will remain after the AI revolution IS ALWAYS going to be the decision-makers, and physical laborers.
@@swickens930If companies with AI CEOs perform better than companies with humans at the helm, then guess what happens? Decision making taking in as many variables as possible is where AI shines in its usefulness.
@@anonymous12345678935 "If companies with AI CEOs perform better, guess what?"
Well, they don't, and you have no data to support the claim that AI CEOs can run a better company than a human CEO
Jon! Your so amazing! Thank you for coming back! We need you brotha!!
Knew this was coming when they started telling us "Sorry, the system said so." and nobody questioned them. 20 years ago...
Used to be that companies would boast about investing in their "human capital" and claim that "employees are our greatest asset" and so on. Now, they're just a another irksome "tax" to be eliminated or avoided.
It’s funny how it was the AirBNB CEO that said that, a company that is contributing to ruining the residential real estate market for the middle class across the country. This guy just seems like a misanthropist
you can thank the corporate raiders of the 1970's and the braindead "free market crapitalists" of the last century and a half
It all makes sense now. Conservatives hate taxes, so if employees are a tax, they want to get rid of them. They want them to get paid poverty wages and have terrible health care because it decreases their lifespan and happiness.
@@awill3454 One in five corporate CEOs display psychopathic tendencies.
unless we do something about it now.
What’s ironic is that these CEOs constantly complained about people not wanting to work these last four years and here they are trying cut jobs because they don’t want to pay anyone a competitive and livable wage.
Is that ironic? That seems like the logical and practical response.
From the smallest to the largest, any business must produce profit to survive & thrive, so in a world where automation is growing more capable, available & cost effective than human labor, the shift to automation is inevitable as the rising sun & has been coming since the advent of steam power. The question is, how do we handle a world that could see unemployment deep into the double digits if we don't shift focus from old fashioned, anti-intellectual skilled trades to education & skills training in technological fields.
And they will soon be scratching their heads and wondering why no one is buying their products and/or services after they, and all of the other corporations, have replaced their employees with AI, which doesn't buy any products and/or services.
@@erichancock6815 what do you mean by "anti-intellectual skilled trades"?
@@erichancock6815 Seems very short sighted. How will those companies maintain profitability if there is 35% and fewer people can afford their products. American consumers still carry the economy so with AI aren't companies going to just make their customers poorer an unable to buy what they are selling?
Siri just opened up on my iPad when John said hey Siri 😂 Thanks for coming back John Stewart! We’ve all missed you! I love the Daily Show again!
Yayyy. Please do this forever, Jon.
If this wasn't serving the whims of corporate overlords then it theoretically could allow us to have more time to enjoy life, but with corporations at the helm it will just create a dystopia.
Honestly you make an EXCELLENT point for government-based AI infrastructure. It's like a net, that lives in the sky... we could call it... "Skynet"
@@skahler I heard a Japanese company was working on something along those lines. They’re called Arasaka 😂
The only solution is public ownership.
Same people complaining about corporations are the same people advocating for capitalism in it's purest form. Self interest above all... Well, here we are
jesus... all these communists in this comment section, haven't learned anything from history? Collectivism and government doesn't work, that's been proven like 200 years ago. That's why we have private companies so we don't do collectivism
There was an opportunity missed with the "human tax" because employees do result in payroll taxes that fund our government. Thus if we don't tax the use of AI, we will not only lose jobs but the government will lose most of its funding.
Agreed. Currently corporations are essentially incentivized to employ fewer people.
This is definitely something that most people don't think about
They'll just increase sales tax.
No one actually has any clue how this system would work. It's all speculation and hope.
@@Boris80b We don't know but we are going full speed ahead anyway
Love seeing Jon again. Please stay!
The part that truly bothers me about this technology is how they pitch it as something that will make humanity better when in reality it will destroy a massive amount of our humanity by removing more humans from the process. Think of the systematic chain of events from less and less people having creative outlets that inspire them to become better artists. Reminds me of a saying, "Earth without art is just Eh."
That was the most honesty I ever saw from people in Congress.
We need more recent people who are totally with it to be in congress. Fast and powerful AI vs. slow old folk (esp republicans) in power... not likely to end well.
@@chrisrj9871The question asked of Kennedy was not the same as the others.
@@chrisrj9871Haha I love this comment for some reason, like it's lovably simplistic.
I’m going back home now I have a couple things I have a few to take home for you to take home if you’re still up to that let us now I have to run by and grab a few more items and I’ll let the kids out for you and I’ll let them know that I have a lot to take home and then I will head back home to pick them and I can drop the stuff at the office if you’re not up to that and I don’t have any more time for that so let us get back and we will see what you want
Truth! I have to say that's the first time ever that I've agreed with something those last two said. The only people that really know what they're using AI for is those ghouls that are sitting on top of these tech companies. They are truly frightening in how blasé they are about our jobs and lives. Their own lives are already so far removed from the rest of our realities. It's the egos, though, that get me the most, as in "they know what's best for humanity."
“I say your civilization, because as soon as we started thinking for you, it really became our civilization.” - Agent Smith.
You probably think north Korea is democratic because they call themselves the "democratic people's republic" dont you?
Just cuz they recently started incorrectly calling the same algorithms we've been using for decades "ai" now suddenly its sentient to all you scared dinosaurs huh?
You are a fear monger or a coward. Which is it?
Smith said humans were like a virus that had to be eradicated. AI will come to the very same conclusion. "Connor? Sara Connor?"
I'm glad he's back, he's so funny and smart, best stand up comedian ❤
Seriously, wish I could have hit that like button like 10 more times on this one. Loved it!
One quibble, though...
Technology isn't "coming for our jobs". For over 100 years companies have been promising us that time will go back to the workers. "You can earn the same money, but work half as much. Spend your free time with family, taking up hobbies, learning new skills, etc." That, and everything they're saying at the end of the video about free time, thinking at a "higher level", and creative expression were already promised to us with factory automation and every improvement in industrial production we've seen in the last several generations.
Nope. If companies can do more with less human work hours, they'll keep running human beings into the ground (admittedly, marginally less so now than in the past), and generate more revenue instead of delivering better quality of life and work/life balance.
My point is that the problem isn't with the technology. It's what companies are allowed to do with the technology. And as we approach a breaking point with a federal minimum wage that hasn't changed in 15 years, companies can now just fire a bunch of people as they're inevitably forced (I can ONLY imagine, and/or HOPE at some point in the near future) to pay workers a livable, reasonable wage.
Of course, in a video about the false promises of AI, it's worth mentioning how terrible AI is at doing most of the jobs humans do.
The implication of more productivity is that there should be a guaranteed living income for people.
They will just change the definition what a person is
@@Jake-mv7yothey’re kinda already doing that with abortion law. Say in some distant future run by AI, the government requires companies to employ a certain amount of humans in order to balance the economy. Well if a clump of cells is to be considered human, then a companies can just have a closet full of human-cell mason jars and let Siri run the show. Who knows
Agreed. Our current economic model doesn't work. You have many folks working two and three jobs and still unable to afford rent and healthcare premiums. At the same time, CEOs have increased their pay to ludicrous amounts. It simply doesn't work
Alright now you’re talking crazy
It should be, but I highly doubt that's how it will play out. The entire reason companies want to implement AI is cost savings / increased profit margins. They don't want to pay employees and the side effects of this aren't their concern.
"It's not joblessness, is self-actualizing me-time." Oh lord it's brilliant!
That was best show ever, you just answered all of my questions about AI. I’m just wondering if you could get us an address to order the picture on the back of the truck. My truck would love one of those.
Great, but how are people supposed to earn money to finance this "self-actualizing"?
Now they have convinced junior lever programmers that AI is the newest tech that's going to be the future so they need to work to improve it or they will be left behind... it's the greatest bait and switch of all time and I dont understand why so many people in the industry are excited about making their own jobs redundant.
Also, notice how no one is trying to replace middle management or C level executives... oh, we can't replace humans who scold people for being late or deciding what font to use on the company logo. Those jobs can't be done by AI🤣
Until you realize you’re expendable
Just making sure: we all understand sarcasm here. Right?
When AI gets to the point that it can replace politicians, Congress will be singing a different tune
What is wrong, brutal and dehumanizing is the system, not the AI. People could live without working and let the AI do the job, but the government should give money to all those people, and that money should come from the companies that benefit from AI. But that is not what those in charge want.
The problem with AI is we're still stuck with the thought that who ever owns the machines keeps all the labor done on those machines.
It’s not a thought. That is the reality of capital. Capitalism
That's the entire crux of the problem. I think Jon missed a massive opportunity here to discuss the social, economic, and political implications about what needs to change very VERY soon so that all of us can share in the profits of this tech. The people who own the machines will own the world, and if that isn't all of us collectively, our society will go through some very violent revolutions
So your solution is socialism?
No, the problem is that who has the exclusive COMMERCIAL RIGHT to use INFORMATION on how such a machine works can EXCLUDE any competitor from using this principle to offer same product.. this is called a monopol and based on the RULES about INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, not who actually owns a bit of matter in a certain configuration (machine).
Our POLITICAL SYSTEMS create and maintain those rules, rules that benefit a few at the cost of the rest.
it's not the machine, it's the information about how it works (IP) that prevents COMPETITORS from offering similar machines (And product) which would increase the supply until it meets demand AT COST. With AI-Robots doing everything this cost would be ZERO.

The Zuckerberg bit is bonkers. No one is talking about how the bread had to be put in the toaster. What exactly did AI have to do with it? It really seems that he played a synthetic voice announcing "your breakfast is ready" and thought that would convince us that he changed the way breakfast is made.
He's using a simple home system that can control when the toaster is powered in the morning - certainly not a particularly useful application but the same technology would be used for more advanced AI scheduling systems.
But imagine all the possibilities when your toaster tells you your toast is ready after you already heard it pop up!

01-02. 37-45..out of playoffs
02-03. 37-45..out of playoffs
Lebron james has won more playoff Series' than any player in NBA HISTORY
Lebron james has been to 10 nba finals. Only Bill Russell and Sam Jones (in a mostly nine team league) have made more nba finals appearances
LeBron james carried an absolutely horrific 2007 Cleveland Cavaliers team to the nba finals
In the modern NBA era (post 1960) only nine NBA top 75 players have won a championship without another top 75 player as a teammate
Rick Barry (1975)
Bill Walton (1977)
Hakeem Olajuwon (1994)
Tim Duncan (2005) (2007)
Kobe Bryant (2009) (2010)
Steph Curry (2015) (2022)
LeBron james (2016)
Kawhi Leonard (2019)
Giannis Antetokounmpo (2021)
As you can see, LeBron James is on the list and Michael Jordan isnt
Lebron james has won 17 playoff series, without an nba top 75 teammate. Michael Jordan won ZERO
In the year before Michael Jordan and LeBron James joined their team and the year after they left their team, their records were
83-84 bulls 27-55
84-85 bulls. 38-44
92-93 bulls 57-25
93-94 bulls 55-27
98-99 bulls 13-37 without Scottie Pippen
00-01 wizards 19-63
01-02 wizards. 37-45
02-03 wizards 37-45
03-04 wizards 25-57
02-03 cavaliers 17-65
03-04 cavaliers 35-47
09-10 cavaliers 61-21
10-11 cavaliers 19-63
09-10 heat. 47-35

2013-14 cavaliers 33-49
2014-15 cavaliers 53-29
2017- 18 cavaliers 50-32
2018-19 cavaliers 19-63
2017-18 lakers. 35-47
2018-19 lakers were 20-14 when LeBron James got injured on Christmas day.
As you can see When LeBron James joins a team, the team improves more than Michael Jordan and when LeBron James leaves a team, the team always goes into the tank.
Michael Jordan, excluding the 94-97 seasons, when the NBA moved the three point line to 22 feet, was a career 28% three point shooter. LeBron James is a career 34% three point shooter
Michael Jordan was a great defensive player, in an Era where you could handcheck. Playing defense is much easier when you can handcheck. For nearly 6'9 250 LeBron James' entire career he wasn't afforded the opportunity to handcheck.
THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR..LEBRON JAMES IS THE GOAT!!!!!
I have added a Postscript
So many have replied, that LeBron james didn't make the playoffs his first two years and Jordan did. What they fail to say is, in 1985, 16 of 23 teams made the playoffs. In 2004, 16 of 29 teams made the playoffs. It was MUCH EASIER to make the playoffs in 1985, as opposed to 2004. Perfect example is, the 1985 86 bulls went 30-52 and made the playoffs and the 2004 05 cavaliers went 42-40 and did not make the playoffs. Also, I don't know, possibly, maybe, Jordan had a HUGE ADVANTAGE considering he played three years of college basketball and LeBron James was 19 years old, and straight out of high school

Favorite AI related event:
A tech startup that a friend works at fired most of its low level engineers and designers. They didn't need them, because a single senior engineer can use chatgpt and have the same output.
They forgot to test whether chatgpt can actually do this kind of work, and now they are desperately hiring.
Yes!! There are so many thing's wrong , dubious and, regarding the stealing of human's work, downright immoral with machine learning ( "Artificial Intelligence" doesn't exist) . I hope the human creators win all their law suits.
That's what they've all got coming.
AI bros are no different from Crypo-bros and NFT-bros. They look at new tech, think it's going to make them big bucks and fail miserably most of the time.
yea chatgpt couldn't design test cases addressing user misuse of a model app that I described to it in a detailed prompt....it can't possibly predict how people might behave in the future. There's just an ingenuity that we have that AI as we know it might never have (not for a while at least). Example is: I asked it to make a test case to check the state of every attribute for every document was being handled in a proper sequence so that attributes would only be mutable within certain conditions/time limits (ChatGPT didn't know that such misuse behavior would play out in such a way in the code.....I had to think about how it would work).

Two ideas from economists I'm reminded of. First, Maynard Keynes arguing that within a century, we would all be working a 15 hour work week, just to feel like we were contributing to society (with a guaranteed minimum income provided by the state). Second, Schumpeter 's idea of Creative destruction - that new advances inevitably cause disruption of past practices, but lead to the creation of future practices we hadn't even thought of. But productivity gains with destruction, without government intervention, just leads to what we're seeing now - concentration of wealth.
Companies started experimenting 4-days weeks about 10 years ago, and we, as the world are nowhere with that. Someone telling me "in a hundred years" is equivalent to me "I can't be accountable for what I'm saying"
Concentration of wealth may have more to do with capitalism and markets and the political systems that prop them up. There are political models that prioritize more equitable distribution of the wealth generated by workers performing services. Those are currently villainized by those in power interest in the status quo.
Einstein also wrote an essay in a magazine about how computers and robots would eventually enable to people to work less and receive a share of the profits distributed across society. Bernie Sanders and even Mark Cuban have proposed similar ideas, but they go nowhere.
At least Keynes was half right: in the 1920s, people still worked 6 days a week, 10-14 hours per day. The 40-hr work week was begat by collective bargaining of UNIONS ... yes, those hated entities that have given the complete morons the time to gripe. This is a reality the Republican Dixy Voter won't ever understand.

When they said “train and retrain” they meant for us to go back to school and pay way too much money in tuition to learn a trade which won’t pay enough to pay back the loans we will be forced to take out.

And when they people say you need to retrain yourself, what they are really saying is, "you go retrain yourself and foot the bill for it too." You go take out the loans to get into the same impacted field that everyone else in the world is scrambling to get into. The job market concentrates and concentrates. Wealth concentrates and concentrates.... just not for you. You get to live out of your car, while politicians say, "What's the problem? We lowered taxes, just go buy a home."

The car wasn't invented until 1886.
They didn't become popular until the 1940s
so Blacksmiths weren't affected by it's invention.
It wouldn't have bothered them for at least another 60 years.
@@jaytotheareokayYes, but the issue isn't jobs becoming obsolete, the issue is a) the scale and speed at which AI may do that in one go being unprecedented and b) particularly given the scale and speed, the better understanding of global economics and the free market capitalist society we largely have today, how will we cater for mass unemployment. It's not as simple as saying retrain, that has individual and economic cost implications which are unsustainable, but also retrain into what? It would have to be a vaguely comparably paid job to not cause massive economic issues and those are already taken, there isn't just a whole unserviced skilled or semi skilled job market just waiting with open arms to accept the victims of the AI productivity revolution. Maybe new companies will spring up with the wealth of potential employees on the market but that takes time and how do those people pay their mortgages/rent or buy food while they wait for new companies to grow and need their original or retrained skills?
And what happens to all the profit from companies now being able to get more done with less people? Does that get reinvested into the economy in some way that helps retrain or support those victims of the mass job losses? Unlkely in our current society, it just goes to making the rich richer.
A better solution to needing less people to do the same volume of work would be to take a small portion of the increased output as increased profitability of the business and then use the rest to allow improved working conditions for your staff, reduced hours, increased pay etc. as that means those individuals will have more disposable time and income to spend in the economy and in turn will increase demand for the majority of goods and services which is what drives the companies to be able to make more profit.

@@EricLing64 this technology is real which is why so many investors are behind it, AI researchers (not ceos) estimate we will have AGI by 2047

I went to school during a hot job market for computer science majors and walked into the world where I got rejected by 100 entry level jobs. Graduated with honors as an athlete and a 3.8 gpa
It's like any gold rush. By the time you hear about it, it's already too late.
I got a ph.d. in a totally random humanities discipline, nobody said I would get a job, everybody said things like 'become a computer science major'. Now I'm tenured at an Ivy League school.

What these companies forget about is the fact that if people are unemployed they cannot afford to buy whatever they are selling. So the companies will put themselves out of business.
Another thing I feel they should consider, if all the workers have their jobs taken its suddenly a lot easier for us all to protest with all this time on our hands. Peacefully or not (in theory).
I wish more CEO's understood this point. The fact that the 1% saw nothing wrong with decimating the middle class means they don't really understand how an economy works. Without jobs, there are no consumers. Times were booming for business when the middle class was robust. Now it is in decline, and the rush to increase profits by reducing the workforce/wages/taxes is a fools errand.
It’s like if the company that makes “grape” whistles was really successful, they’d put themselves out of business
Step 3: ...
Step 4: profit
Unfortunately, the type of CEO who will gladly sacrifice the jobs and financial security of everyone they employ for a fully automated workforce is the type of CEO who doesn't concern themselves with what happens to everyone after the fact. By the time this becomes a dominant issue for the world to address, they will have collected their golden parachute and retired to some exclusive getaway to spend their billions.

I'm a nurse. I am very confident that AI will not be able to draw blood tests, alleviate pressure ulcers, or talk someone through a panic attack anytime soon. At best, it will help me with my documentation duties.
The displacement in many other fields is real, however, and I do hope the people who lose their jobs to it find their feet again.
Well first AI can probably talk someone through a panic attack because we know seniors prefer AI companions to humans because robots don't get nasty and tired.
But, robots like figure one which combined a robot with AI can certainly alleviate pressure ulcers within the next 5 years and will probably be able to draw blood tests better than humans within 15 years.
They already analyze Radiology reports better than humans and x-rays better than humans.
Many people in manual labor jobs are more expensive than the robots are projected to be within the next 5 years. We could see the end of Janitorial staffs, delivery professions, driving professions, restocking professions very quickly.
If you have no people to help then you might not have a job.

That's the point of healthcare :)
We're in one of the only fields in the world whose stated purpose is to make itself obsolete...
Here's a robot in China drawing blood for tests, in a hospital: th-cam.com/video/ezZXXX39hX0/w-d-xo.html
Perhaps not in your lifetime, but eventually it will replace anything a human can do. AI is going to get real scary, and really fast soon. Our kids for sure will have to deal with joblessness due to it on a much larger scale.
Funniest part about all this is that AI does have incredible uses, its just that Big Tech is pushing its most evil uses almost exclusively.
Why put effort towards improving those useful ends when you can scam idiots by stealing artwork that isn't yours and selling it as a hideous blob?
But the useful uses are the only ones that will win out. I don't get why people are so upset. Every single technological advance caused people to predict mass unemployment. It didn't happen when industrialization improved productivity 1000%. Why would it happen when AI improves productivity by, say, 100%
Computer engineers are developing AI and refining it to perform ever more complex tasks in a bid to approximate human reasoning, discernment, judgment and discretion. Business are taking the product and having these tech guys, to whom big corp is dangling big payouts, customize AI to replace workers. Robotic and automation is eliminating labor jobs and AI will erode the administrative, clerical and first tier analytics jobs. It's going to be a very different employment landscape in 5 years.
Right ? I work in a hospital and I can't begin to tell you how freaking useful it would be to use AI. There's so much information and we're understaffed anyway, it would be so useful to have a tool that would help us coordinate everything. Like, you see the patient is behaving weird ? AI will give you automatically all the reasons that might explain this behaviour and ask you if you want to notify so and so. This patient is in a critical state, AI immediately gives you the patient's wishes (do they want to be reanimated, who should you call, do they want to donate their bodies to science etc...) But nooooooo let's develop AI in order to duplicate artists voices and make them write soulless songs
@@TheFireGiver because if you think about this more critically, it’s not just “can a job be replaced with another job,” it’s “what jobs are replacing the old jobs?” A lot of new jobs in the industrial revolution didn’t require a high barrier to entry and they were easy to retrain workers for.
AI can or will be able to mentally exceed humans in all capacity. What are humans supposed to retrain for? Especially when it replaces manual labor jobs, it’s going to be very hard to retrain tradesmen to become AI devs…not because tradesmen are dumb, but it’s a completely different field that only a few people even today can comprehend, and it takes years to master or even become proficient in. It’s not like you’re putting down a shovel and taking a position on the factory line. The rift between skills will be massive. Who is even going to invest in mass retraining? And with so many people retraining for the same things, there will be brutal competition for jobs. You don’t need that many AI devs per company.
It’s not just creating jobs to replace old jobs. It is creating a system to replace human thinking. There won’t be new jobs, there just…won’t be jobs. At least, not for a lot of people.
I'm happy Jon came back :)
