      AI is just one of several serious existential threats the kids will have to deal with. They’re far from alright.

        “The kids are alright” does not mean that the world where the kids live is alright, it means that the kids are alright. 😅

    I’m so blackpilled on the average person. These stats mean nothing because the average person not trusting a tech company does absolutely nothing to push them away from it. 80% distrust AI but 50% use it and the stat is growing.

    You shouldn’t trust billionaires at all. Even the “good ones”. You don’t get a billion <insert currency here> net worth without exploiting people

    As an old person I can also say that old people don’t trust AI, or the leaders of those companies, or the current administration…

      Old people were the biggest voter block FOR the current (US) administration. You might not like it, but “old people” certainly have some other opinions.

    theyre not the ones being billed for it; dont worry what they think. ai spending is in enterprise situations. mostly coding/tech companies and finance companies, and well lots of companies. the big payers though are coders and finance. there isnt really anything to not trust. it codes and answers questions and picks stocks. nobody’s hooked it up to skynet. nobody’s built skynet. the billionaires borrowed more money than they can afford unless their ai models win long term. i think theyre in a semi-humbled moment.

    They’re already dumber than the older generations, but hey, we can make the problem even worse. Why not.

    I’m gonna have to work until I’m 110 years old probably just to keep the following generations fed and clothed… and I bet at least one of you morons will think “it’s the billionaires’ fault”. Try to actually read a real book.

      Well, yeah, you’re kinda right. It’s the system that creates these billionaires fault. One of the reasons I dislike all the guillotine memery a bit (although I find it pretty funny) is because just unaliving Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk won’t help in the long run. The system is gonna continue to produce these kind of psychopaths.
