A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

These bonzos want the world economy to collapse so there will be massive layoffs, allowing them to offer AI bots to companies and governments to replace human workers.

Except that it won’t eliminate anyone because they will all get a federal bailout.

Are you talking about the AI / big tech companies? No they won’t.

I imagine they're referencing the 2008 precedence, although that was banks. But these tech companies are now 'worth more' than the banks so they may be considered 'too big to fail'. Wiki entry for 2008 bailout: Bailout Link

I don't think big tech that does stuff besides just AI (Google, Meta) will go bankrupt when the AI bubble busts. The AI-only tech companies though (OpenAI, Anthropic, ...) - I guess we'll see. I'm pretty sure many of those will die.
