Am I supposed to feel sorry for the CEO on this situation? Lol
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
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.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Because it is relevant:
Unemployed individuals are roughly 60% to 87% more likely to die by suicide compared to employed peers, with some studies estimating that up to 1 in 10 global suicides are directly attributable to labor underutilization (job loss or underemployment).
A study using data from 175 countries between 1991 and 2017 showed that for every 1% increase in unemployment, there was a 2–3% increase in suicide rates in those aged 30–59 years, suggesting that if such an increase in unemployment could be prevented then so would the corresponding increase in suicides.
There should be no threats to families of CEOs who announce huge job cuts.
There should be removal of the CEOs' lives.

🤷 he threatened their families first
he reportedly told the audience: "It doesn't take much effort to convince people, in the end, that they're stupid to be paying $100 for labour when you can pay $2 for the AI."
What a dumbass. Who's going to run the AI for you you and validate it's output? What happens when the tokens cost more than an employee? You gonna beg them to come back?
Fucking knob head.
except AI will cost $200 the moment you need to put it on enterprise level, $400 in 6 months $8000 in 2 years.
He doesn't care, and yes he will.
It's our job to stand firm and tell him to suck a fart.
Kind of the be expected when you threaten the livelihoods of them and their families. CEOs often seem to forget that they are laying off actual people who need to eat.
You are right but also suicide rates.

If a mass terrorist threatened the livelihoods of a thousand people, no one would feel bad about them getting threatened. But when a CEO does it to get rich they're supposed to be rewarded?
If you deny a person access to healthcare, that's just good business.
I've asked Claude to generate the sounds of the world's tiniest violin playing.
972,717,183,611 tokens later and it's almost got it right.
Good, all these assholes should live in a constant state of abject terror for what they're doing to the world.
It's the only thing that will make them stop.
Destroying ppls lives to chase profits is worthy of some kind of social backlash, no?
Is there a way to use AI to threaten them? Might be the first good use case I've heard.
