its not just about the cost , AI doesn't have some of the functionality that humans do

Long ago I learned in an economics class that business is all about exploitation of underprivileged populations. From indigenous people to slaves to poor citizens to “third-world” countries.

Corporations are running out of people to exploit globally, so the idea of infinite artificial labor is the holy grail of cost optimization.

Their desire for quick riches may just turn the masses against them. Maybe.

It's amazing to me how fast the executive class jumped on the notion of replacing their workers, although it was obviously too early to know. The idea makes them salivate so much that they showed their hand immediately like children before candy.

I think the class divide will take a long time to recover. Basically every boss in the world declared to the public, including their own employees, how eager they are to just fire the lot of them.

Building data centers is expensive. But they are an essential part of the AI surveillance state infrastructure that the Trump-Epstein class wants for complete control.

So this is just a short term expense. It will become much cheaper, like any new tech.

What do you mean I can't do a wage theft????

This is more like what we imagine it's going. In reality, they couldn't care less and will shift gears to keep the line going up and cutting costs. If full AI adoption won't work, then they'll shift resource direction to what they are already experienced in: outsourcing to SE Asia (with AI sprinkled on top).

Someone must be looking in on my ceo and cto.

Guess who it will get taken out on!

The only silver lining in all this is that these fucks will have dumped billions, possibly trillions, into tech they never understood just to end up pretty much back where they started. Still doing substantial harm as they try to force it anyway, but they're not going to get the ultimate results they want, at least.

It's almost as though labor is the source of value.

I really like the last sentence. The implication that he's not firing everyone regardless is hilarious!
