Lol!! Don't forget. This is a modern day class war. This current LLM based so called AI, could have easily used for automating simple tasks and employees could have easily provided with 3 day work week. The goal is to monopolize human knowledge with all the stolen data and make profits from it.

Agreed. LLMs are the Manhattan Project of the class war. It really looks like they're betting everything that this will "win" it for them

The dream of a perpetual labor machine is the end goal of capitalists. It's how you usher in the extermination age. Much easier to do once you declare 20-40% of the population "useless."

Frankly, "AGI" just seems like a return to Antebellum slave economics.

Free labor is a C-suite's wet dream, and it has been since the 1520s.

Yeah "AI" doesn't work but that doesn't matter. Your boss believes that there is a coin-operated robot slave that is smarter than you, never gets tired, and never talks back. Good luck getting that raise now, asshole.

Why the specific 1520s date?

The labor consequences of the Black Death in Europe swung back to capital in the 1520s. The proportion of the population working for wages crossed 50%.
