Are we actually fucked?

Only for "investors." There will be a bubble pop, but it will ultimately be a good thing as all of that capital/revenue that was being wasted on AI will get rerouted back to real, good, useful things. We're in a sick clownconomy right now that looks good for stocks but is hurting the common man in most respects.

There really needs to be a correction, but yes unfortunately that also means people will suffer in the short term so that we get back on track for the long term. I got out of college at the height of COVID, it took me two years to get on track again professionally.
>>
>>61050587
Are you stupid or something? Why are you looking for economic advice from some German bank? Germanys economy is fucked and they(just like everyone else) want the us to feel the world economic strain.
>Are we actually fucked?
I am not, most Americans are though. Have you been affected by the increased cost of living? Then you are fucked.

If you didn’t make it off of the Covid bull run you have a chance now, pray for a burst and invest heavily. AI companies are over evaluated that is true, but the federal reserve has proven themselves from preventing a full crash and just putting us into another Great Recession.
Bubbles will burst and companies will go out but the big guys will be okay, and remember buy on the dip sell at the ath.

Yes. Trump inflated the mother of all bubbles, while crushing non-servuce sectors with tariffs, and has accelerated dedollarization so much the dollar lost 10-15% of its value since April.

I'm a blacksmith, this fancy power loom shit can make a carpet 20% faster but who cares, it's pathetic and will never find any uses in metalworking. Who cares anyway, it can't even sew a shirt, only people who made cloth are affected.
>>
>>61054148
is this related to AI?
>>
>>61054186
No, the comment about the power loom and blacksmith is not directly related to AI. It's an analogy being used to express a viewpoint about the current state of AI and its impact.

Analogy Explained

The blacksmith's perspective on the power loom is a historical parallel intended to frame a modern opinion about AI technology.

The Power Loom is meant to represent current AI technology.

The Blacksmith represents a skeptic or an observer whose industry (like many today) is not immediately and obviously impacted by the new technology.

The Blacksmith's Dismissiveness ("pathetic," "will never find any uses in metalworking") mirrors the skepticism that some people feel about the broad utility and revolutionary claims of AI today.

The Focus on Cloth/Carpet Making ("only people who made cloth are affected") represents the idea that current AI benefits are narrow or only affect specific, often white-collar, sectors like content creation, data analysis, or software development, rather than having a truly universal impact yet.

The Point of the Analogy

The person who posted the blacksmith comment is likely using this historical example to make one of two points in the "AI bubble" thread:

AI is Underhyped or Misunderstood: That just like the power loom eventually revolutionized manufacturing and society far beyond cloth-making, current AI advances are more significant than skeptics realize and will soon affect every industry, including those that currently feel safe (like the blacksmith).

AI is Overhyped but still Impactful: That while current AI may not be an immediate, universal bubble-bursting revolution (the blacksmith is right for now), it is still a foundational technology that will incrementally change specific industries (like cloth-making/data processing) with significant economic consequences, thus justifying the discussion about a "bubble."

>>
>>61054370
whats that showing?
>>
>>61054362
Really? If they’re successful, they can lease AI agents to companies to replace all sorts of employed positions so that companies can cut staff and save on payroll. That’s how they get a return on the investment.

Do you understand how numbers work? It’s trillions. Look at the Us GDP. Even if you took every single payroll department’s outflow and funneled it back to “AI” for “them algrithms” they wouldn’t recoup shit. I am so sick of interacting with uninformed retards

>accelerated dedollarization
Bad for now, but long overdue. The only reason the US dollar was the world's reserve currency for so long is because we forced the issue with the Bretton Woods scheme.
>hey everyone, we notice we got out of WW2 uniquely undamaged by all the fighting, we'll gladly help you folks rebuild and fund you
>give you gold? lol, no, we'll give you our money, and you can buy gold from us at $35/oz
>don't worry if you build up a surplus of US dollars, you'll be able to convert it to cheap gold sooner or later

>>61054660
It's not about investing in a payoff, it's investing in power.
Remember back in the election when a TV station aired a live video of Trump acting bizarrely, and it turned out it was being edited in real-time by AI? This is the future they are investing in. The power to create any evidence they want on anyone. You say you weren't there, but we have this video of you there. And once they have it polished far enough, it will be all but impossible for people to tell the difference between a real image and a fake one. Some country ticks us off? A full raft of fake evidence of a terror attack that never happened, and at least half the world will be condemning them if not joining us in getting revenge.
Full narrative control, that's worth any price. That's why companies and governments are spending trillions they don't have to be the first to get it.

I spend probably hours a day interacting with various AI platforms. I don’t know how people don’t use it themselves. I mean I guess they do without even realizing it most of the time whenever thus pull up a google search results page but still. It’s fun to create stuff with it and talk to anime characters, even outside of practical stuff associated with it.

A lot of companies are undervalued right now. If you look at the markets they are trading below their historical average on terms of key metrics.

Name one company making money this way. There is no money in this.
>>61055103
I’ve started outsourcing almost all of my thinking to chatGPT. I regularly prompt it to basically simulate a variety of outcomes, pull up any useful context, and flag possible risks. Anyone not doing this is getting left behind massively. Imagine not literally having all the world’s knowledge auto-injected into every decision-making process you have to deal with. It also makes it so much easier to handle other people because it takes emotion out of the equation. You’re just giving back the best possible solutions. The only problem now is that basically everything takes place in a linear conversation. You have to type everything out and previous conversations get lost. The real gain is going to be when LLMs are just continually working in the background, spitting out context and scenarios unprompted in all kinds of situations. Most people won’t be able to handle it because they still think their brains are worth something. Me, i’m retardmaxxing so the idea that I need to do even less thinking is honestly awesome. Also, self-driving cars.

AI's real power is not in creating evidence, it's to further muddy the waters about the truth and ultimately destroy it. Any document, photograph, or recording can be called "AI" and instantly lose credibility in a way that calling stuff a "conspiracy theory" never could. Then you muddy it further and gaslight everyone by releasing an innumerable amount of AI-generated wrong versions of whatever it is you want to suppress. Nothing is real, nothing is verifiable, and that means you can do whatever you fucking want.
