This guy is basically saying a lot of people will have to die (starvation) for the good of the ecconomy. When have I heard that before? Seems like there was a plague recently, and they said this very thing then too. What was it again?

I’m really confused why this is posted in response to the article?

Are you saying Hinton is holding back OpenAI from replacing people in the labor market? That OpenAI and others should be left alone and criticism should stop?

    To say people need to be replaced is cultural stupidity. It is an opportunity to lead. When that opportunity is not taken, when it is not invested in growth, when it is extracted, failure follows as real leaders emerge. Meritocratic order is the most important factor totally absent from the American zeitgeist and leadership.

    I am commenting on the propaganda value being shit.
