Big companies ARE government. They literally have bullion gorillion net worth. How do you think it is possible without government shoving these numbers to goyim like Musk to decrease inflation? All these companies like Tesla or NVIDIA don't have profit, they live on bank loans. It's all fake and gay, money has no value for at least several decades now. UBI will be basically food tickets.

Big tech is automating. An automated system doesn't need employees. It doesn't need society. It doesn't need (You).

Once the world is automated and controlled by handful of people, you'll likely just be left to perish. There will be no UBI. This promise is just a sedative to stop you from noticing your impeding doom.

Wonder how long that will take. There is going to be this awkward period where all computer facing jobs are replaced(since the US's economy is service based), creating mass unemployment, but there will still be people employed doing stuff like plumbing/welding/nursing/etc. because the tech lag in putting AI into humanoid robots. If the tech billionaires twiddle their thumbs during this period, people absolutely will start bombing datacenters and going luigi on tech leaders and politicians that let it all happen.

Clueless Idealists like you who believe there's someone in charge, taking care of everyone and everything will be the first to join the cattle class when shit finally hits the fan and when news leaks five years later that some neighbourhood got its utilities cutoff revealing that some unknown company somewhere already achieved agi years ago and bought out a significant portion of critical infrastructure like the grid or the water supply. Inb4 govt, lmao, what govt will exist when a company can churn out thousands of humanoid robots?

I don’t even think that BigTech wants anything, they are just going with the current moving fast and breaking things like they usually do, except now the thing they are doing is explicitly automating everyone, which in our meritocratic capitalist system means screwing over everyone but billionaires because nobody will have a job. Btw this is not meant to be some leftist jab at capitalism, socialism would do the same just replace billionaires with government leaders.
>UBI
UBI only benefits the poor and gives 0 negotiating power to the poor. The elites are basically giving you free money either printed or taxed, then you give them that money back so they give you food and products. It’s purely one-sided exchange where the beneficiary has no negotiating power, it’s dumb economically and even if the current crop of elites wanted to keep the poor alive it would just be matter of time before they decide to turn off the tap water. The only negotiating tool the masses have is violence, which means that the UBI age would end the moment elites amass enough murderbots to stay alive or use some depopulation technique like bioweapon or poisoning water supply. Once again this isn’t some evil plot, this is just the natural conclusion of full automation in a system that isn’t fairytale communist utopia where there are no hierarchies and everyone shared everything out of goodness of their heart.
>>
>>107767184
Do you remember feudalism? This is feudalism 2.0. We all become serfs in their technoretard future. We will be governed by robots and their cattle prods. Forced to do menial tasks like shoveling shit. And that's the best case scenario. Worst case, they let billions starve to death. Which is the most likely outcome.
>>
AI is not the problem, capitalism is. The richest 1% of people have DOUBLED their networth in the past 5 years. Let them do that again 3-4 times and they will basically own all the money in the world. But if nobody has money the system will collapse and people go back to building their own houses in the woods and growing their own food and reject all form of capitalistic consume which will in turn make money worthless.

Imagine being such a pure specimen of the genetic serf class that you even consider UBI to be an option. The issue isn't just the viability but the mentality of thinking everyone else will bend over backwards simply to keep you alive.

The AI controlled factories are going to need resources for their products. These items will be free for the elites. You on the other hand will be conscripted to fight resource wars to feed those factories. There will be no UBI.

If it actually gets the the point that there's not enough jobs for the populace to get one, they'll just let them starve.
The elite only wanted population growth because they needed more workers to accelerate their profits, if work can be done, 24/7, by a completely efficient being then there won't be a need to keep people around outside of wealth extraction which pretty much has happened already
besides if UBI did happen, prices will rise such that if you're on UBI, then the only thing you could afford is a very basic life in a very cheap area if that at all. It'll just be like American minimum wage which was designed to ensure workers can raise a family with any job, and that quickly became obsolete since we just raised prices to match that since people now had X amount of dollars to spend

Tech feudalism
Basically the top 0.5% will enjoy a life of vanities and depravity, with all their needs met. The other 0.5% will serve them as knights did, they will enforce their laws and watch over the serfs. The 99% will be the serfs, they will own nothing and have no access to anything that isn't approved by the 0.5%. You will only have access to simple devices that connect to the cloud based AI services scanned by Palantir. Wrongthink detected?

The doomers seem to think that there are zero intelligent people with agency among the 99%. If human-level AI and robotics is practically possible, it is extremely unlikely that the 1% could keep a monopoly on the technology for very long. Open source AI models are just a few months behind the closed ones today. How low opinion do you have of yourself if you genuinely believe the bullshit about "10 trillionaries owning everything and we are all going to die" if human-level AI and robots are accessible? Just get together with your friends and build a commune with open-source robot slaves. Oh, you don't know how? Just ask the AI. If it's truly human-level or better, you will get a good action plan.

It's really interesting to see just how many people want to hold on to the idea of a society that needs to work, especially on trivialities.
We as a species should be rushing at the opportunity to enslave the machines for at least our basic survival needs. Then alone or together with the machines we can at our own discretion decide to work on problems of actual consequence rather than say standing behind a cash register for the majority of your week just so that you can barely afford to survive to repeat it. Even if that person did nothing but be lazy for their life fine, but what if they decided to spend it working on something more valuable than standing around like an actual utility/tool more than acting as a human being.
Who even wants to maintain such a state of things.

The AI isn't that universal. Not the LLMs and generative whatever that is booming right now that shouldn't even. Plus it looks like they are just desperate to convince investors that they are going somewhere with their senile AI smut. This stuff is cool is certain niche circumstances and that's about it, as far as I can tell.
Automation that has been gradually increasing since the 19th century is still going strong as it always has. Engineers and programmers are always trying to find ways to make production and systems more efficient.

That aside, I read contrasting opinions about the AI boom being good for business or being a waste of time and money. Seems to vary per company. Ultimately, I've no idea and I don't think anyone here knows either.

This is temporary. The law of supply and demand dictates that companies will react to the increased price by building more fab capacity, which will increase supply and depress the price. Just like it happened countless times in the past.

There will no white collar jobs left so everybody will compete for the remaining manual labor jobs and compete for minimum wage, which will stay the same even as the dollar continues to inflate, in the end amounting to millions of people competing for terrible jobs that can pay for maybe one full meal a day. Your role will be to happily offer your slave labor to prop up the cities of the tech oligarchs, kind of like in Dubai, while they try to crack how they can replace every job in existence, which will be a race to the bottom in finding out how cheap they can build the slavebots vs how cheaply they can get away with paying you.

No one should hold onto that shit if it can be automated, because that's the definition of make work.
I sure as hell wouldn't want to sit in front of a lever in a factory only to pull it twice an hour, just so I can have a job and pretend to be useful and getting paid for it.

World simply has to deal with the new reality of permanently unemployed masses, which btw isn't even an issue in modern world.
That's because monetary systems are imaginary to begin with, so why the fuck would it matter if money is printed for people infinitely?
Just keep resetting the system or simply cut off zeroes from the inflated currency and prices and it's all good.
That's what keeps happening with currencies anyways. 100% of them will die and then get a reset.
Only thing that would have to be done for this system to work, is for bankers and richfags to stop fucking with the average Joe. Just allow currency resets and debt defaults for the normie without the wealth transfer to the top.
Of course we know they won't stop fucking with the average Joe, so there's a bit of a permanent stumbling block right there.

People who don't provide value to the elite will simply be culled.
An economy based around "workers" and "consumers" is 20th century thinking. Elites in 20th century only made concessions to the working class because they ostensibly needed workers to man their factories. Now that they can effectively generate wealth without workers, they can drop the pretense of needing the teeming masses alive for anything.

We live in a world where people unironically generate schizo theories through a lens created by media consumption, so you always end up with retarded shit that is literally daytime TV drama storyline tier and if you tell them that they're retarded they'll just spout some pseudo science bullshit. The past year has taught me that the most of the people who hold power aren't malicious, they're literally just so fucking stupid and surrounded by ass kissers that they genuinely believe their own hype about whatever they're doing being for the greater good or whatever. That said, there are certain aspects that they MIGHT be right about. I don't think Nvidia and big AI want to make everyone unemployed, but retarded companies who have no idea what they're doing will almost certainly try to get away with laying off as many people as they can with AI in their chase for ever growing profit, and that WILL cause economic problems which isn't exactly good for the AI industry that already doesn't make a profit

you're mixing arguments again. lobbying is one of many tools they use to advance their interests, which is the point i'm making.

boiling all of the various tools they use to advance their interests to "corporate greed" is a low IQ reddit trope by envious retards. at the highest levels, different rules apply and lines blur between government and corporate interests.

the thing that you're having a lot of trouble understanding because of your low envious worldview is that sometimes the decisions they make are for survival, national security, industry dominance, social manipulation, or just advancing the technology.

your preferred reddit argument blaming "greedy billionaires" is stupidly one-dimensional and comes from a low and embarrassing flaw in your own psyche. you're satisfied with stupid arguments like that because you're not curious beyond your bitter envy and self righteous narratives.

Every quality of life thing for the peasants has been the result of centuries of conflict as those evil liberals gradually and slowly won rights for people that aren't rich to be regarded as human beings.
The peak of American civilization was FDR's New Deal which gave America decades of a golden age in the 20th century until Reagan began the dramatic process of dismantling it, which every Republican greatly worsened and every Democrat was too incompetent to reverse.

The point is that billionaires making everything automatic and self-sufficient would do it to turn a profit out of firing everyone else to reduce costs, but without wages coming in for the common person at some point the economy stagnates since no one spends money to buy what you automated. At that point billionaires need people to have money so they can give it to them. If billionaires won't do it, the government will have to interfere because without citizens there's no point to a government, and if the government has no point to exist people working for it no longer get paid.
This kind of situation benefits no one and harms everyone.

And economic growth would go to the gutter as demand plummets for everyone. Suddenly you're not servicing hundreds of millions of people, now it's a couple thousand at most. Those companies with equipment to service that mass now have billions of dollars that are completely worthless. Moreover, this has improved nothing: You cannot take advantage of the extra resources you've just acquired because there's no demand, you haven't really acquired any more purchasing power because you've just leveled the field with everyone else remaining, and you also had that initial investment of time and value into somehow pacifying around 8 billion people so they can starve without bothering you.

How do you adapt to something which will eventually be better than the best humans at everything? Once they're fully autonomous then the "10 trillionaires that own everything" won't even exist because money will have no value, the entire planet will be an infinite dupe glitch. You either have the benevolent robot future where they fully take over all labor and support humans (which would only last a couple decades before the brown population explosion destroys the planet's ecosystem), or the run away AI future where the robots kill all humans either intentionally or just as a result of their own infinite proliferation.

I guess there's a third option, the small racially homogenous human community rationally capable of possessing near-infinite resources without immediately consuming near-infinite resources and their servant robot class that you might've seen in 1960s sci-fi, but you'd require a few literal Hitlers to reach that point.

UBI is only possible if the economy is doubling every month or two, which might be possible with heavy AI automation of the economy.
the problem is i seriously doubt govt will just get out of the way, they will regulate AI to death if the wrong people get into power. preventing automation, keeping everyone working their 9-5 forever and ever and be denied Utopia while the Chinese are automating away and building their rockets to colonize the solar system.

it's not someone thinking about it you moron, think of it as a zeitgeist, or some natural phenomenon, with no central control. no nefarious evil fucker rubbing his hands coordinating the downfall of pleb.
that being said, it will still happen, based on the natural outcome of the group situation. when people aren't DESIRED for jobs, nobody gonna employ them.
does anyone mass employ people they don't need, you idiot? right now? does anyone give you anything for nothing, right now? without other incentives? anyone on this earth do anything for you out of the goodness of their hearts so you have a fucking happy life, because you somehow deserve it? no? and what the actual fuck do you think is going to happen when everyone running something says "dude, I cannot run this shit if I employ people, I cannot fucking afford such a thing, they are way slower, make more mistakes, I get outcompeted by people who are using 100% automated workforce" ???? explain you idiot
>how peoples buy shits
obviously with some nonsense money given away from the goberments
but think of it this way, how long do you think anyone is willing to pay anyone for...nothing? because sure as fuck nothing gonna change. billionaire's assets won't get nationalized, and anyone trying to, realistically, gonna fucking vanish like they never even existed
this is a fucking power game, always was, always will be. people just get high on their own farts because they can afford it, because they are useful for powerful people, still.
what the actual fucking fuck do you think is going to happen when people become useless? when anything you can ever think of is cheaper/faster/more reliable done with AGI robots? think...like actually fucking think instead of thinking of retarded shit. look back in history, jolt those two retarded neurons of yours to make the fucking connection

a few extra are empowered by AI, in their specific domains. and that's massively fucking worth it for both them and some of us who'll enjoy what they make
on top of all of this are fucking drooling retards making absolute shit polluting everything with it. like every bad driver who's slamming into trees and falling off cliffs with their cars. it's empowering, but for a few, not for most, you morons

pleb got their rights in ancient Rome because they had actual power as a group, they could defend the richfags. thus they forced their rights out of them.
pleb is losing more and more power these days, and it will only get worse, this power imbalance. everything is about power and ability to exert it. everything else is smoke and mirrors and literal fucking nonsense
since pleb working hold a lot of power, and with the advent of instant communication pleb starting to figure it out, a natural conclusion is to replace them as fast as fucking possible whenever possible, that's a natural incentive. you threatening to stop working, at group level, is incredibly dangerous. for defense that's less so these days, fewer and fewer required for it, tech stands in place of a lot of pleb defending, compared to the past. but work...that's still an issue

>>107778197
most people are shit at most things, and won't particularly shine in anything.
let's go about this another way, prove that AI tools didn't empower anyone. for example I was finally able to finish a lot of older projects that required me to code shit. I'm good at designing electronics but sucked ass at coding them. now it's way simpler to make shit, since AI helps me with that shit. and it's not really doing it for me, it's helping me learn doing it myself. fucker still retarded don't trust it doing shit on its own, gotta go function by function with it or it fucks it up anyway
what I mean is that the level of empowerment is not necessarily obvious now, immediately, but will be later on, not only on the arts front.
it's like better and cheaper tools hit the market. you won't get michelangelos everywhere all of a sudden, but things get cheaper/faster and it adds up at group level.

people they don't need but employ are not being employed out of the goodness of their hearts, but because of the repercussions of not doing it. there's other incentives for employing them. if they don't do it it's more expensive in other ways than doing it. that's how everything happens, and nothing outside of this happens, at mass scale. you just cannot comprehend it.

oh yes. for example hobos in certain countries are not killed because of the pleb uproar. and nothing is being done about them in other countries because it's free. doesn't cost anything not doing anything about it. if it was politically costly, they'd immediately take care of them. but if they can get away with it, they'll allow for even more, with zero cares about them, since it's free. why do anything? if you can do nothing and get away with it then that's how it rolls.
if instead people started politically taxing the people in power, for the amount of hobos, and the cost of taking care of the hobos is lower than the political cost, then those hobos will be promptly sorted out.
that's how everything happens at scale, you just lack the mental faculties to understand it, or you're not even 18 and you shouldn't be posting here anyway lmao

>>
>>107767184
first off, AI is a meme that has peaked and will be relegated to its niche when it fails to be what was promised (AGI)

second, UBI is a fictional idea that makes no sense in reality outside of a temporary means to ethically shrink or replace the population with the help of state enforced birth control. Pure UBI recipients serve no purpose and thus should be eliminated and pure UBI recipients that reproduce could expand the UBI population beyond the system's means and so must not be allowed. Additionally for UBI to come about you effectively need AGI which means you're in human replacement territory and people stop serving a purpose which leads to the same conclusion of eliminating people rather than providing UBI in perpetuity.

They keep smugly questioning how the companies are going to make money if no one has a job.

But I'm pretty sure that future wouldn't materialize in the first place, because if no one has a job... then that would affect people's voting habits, which would cause that future to not materialize.

In reality the unemployment rate will stay low and they're all delusional.
I bet if you asked people 2 years ago: "Will ChatGPT result in the unemployment rate raising in 2 years?" a lot of people back then would've said yes. Well they were all fucking wrong.

You seem to be suggesting this as a "gotcha" but I'm fully aware of what I said, and it's why UBI is nonsensical. Humans will adapt or die, me included. Everything gets optimized eventually and if humans serve no purpose they will be optimized out. The only concern is whether the right type of intelligence supercedes us. Something superior in the short term but inferior in the long term could eliminate us for nothing which we should avoid, but there's nothing wrong with being replaced by a superior being.

>>
>>107773631
Yeah I feel like a ton of people just ignore this.
Where I work (at one of the two major ISPs in the country) they run the entire infrastructure with so few people it's shocking... and it works.

I genuinely can't imagine what will be left for the average person to do.
Everything worth doing will and is already done by major corporations that you can't compete with. I've seen local shops, small businesses of all kinds close here in the past decades.
Even "entrepreneur" tradies had to join big corporation as subcontractors or mostly just workers.
Online it's even more obvious.
Why would anyone trust some smaller mail provider if gmail is free? Most people don't even use the internet anymore they just use a set of websites now available in app form.
Everything has been gobbled up.

Then you could claim something community driven, local handmade or bespoke items are the way for skilled tradesmen or I honestly don't even know... Who will be their customers?
Who are you selling your stuff locally if nobody has money for "luxury" (or leisure).
My father had to sell most of his livestock because they regulated small farmers out of business basically.
During covid he was working a second job just to keep the animals "all proper"... all legal.

I'm just a helpdesk guy, generally a loser. Most people here will just laugh and say get filtered faggot. (Already seeing some guy just doing so for a cheap joke.)
Realistically, what can people even do? I could aspire to more, but at most I could be one of the field techs if my back can bear it or part of the NOC team.
Will they even be needed? The layoffs seem to have hit the senior staff more than the bottom rung so far.

If I'm lucky I wont get drafted to fight Russia in the next few years by the look of things, so I can comfortably starve to death or eat the bugs...
Could finish my degree, but for what? I'm not at the IQ level where I could work on anything serious anyways and becoming a code monkey is obsolete.

What would be the means to get past zero? What if there are no means?
>>24/7 factories, automated logistics, AI‑run farms, self‑maintaining infrastructure
How would you self-maintain old houses?
>In that world, there is no technological reason for most people to lack food, housing, healthcare, or information
Why would people be educated? Even "if" that world were to be achieved why wouldn't they just go into the self-maintained pleasure cube and die there?
I'm more worried that we'll run out of rare minerals before we reach that future and we're left with constant recycling. Or of there are way more resources than anticipated then the only labor worth something would be mining so that we can use our abundant biochemical resource (humans) to not waste too much in manufacturing of mining equipment.

As I pointed out my father basically is being forced out of our inherited land, animals forced to be culled or sold off to big corporations, guns forced to be sold as hunting license/memberships are getting too expensive and limiting.
Owning secondary rented out flats is not nearly as viable as it once was due to over-regulations as well.

Owning is literally becoming too expensive, not feasible in real time. Unfortunately I'm not American so we don't get as many freedoms that I assume you think would help with this.
If I were capable of amassing a critical mass of assets I wouldn't be worried here either. Sadly I'm not. Most people aren't unfortunately.

>second, UBI is a fictional idea that makes no sense in reality outside of a temporary means to ethically shrink or replace the population with the help of state enforced birth control
UBI as presented by modern social democrats where one part of the nation chills out and collects welfare checks forever and the other bust their ass off to pay for it, is not only retarded, but also extremely unjust. The Soviets correctly understood a scheme like that as social parasitism - one group of workers exploits the labor of others and does not contribute to the common good. What should happen instead is nationalization of the commanding heights of economy with profits from those industries redistributed to people as social dividend, obviously only those who are employed and who contribute to society. He who does not work, neither shall he eat after all.

Best take.
The fully automated gay space communism doesn't need useless eaters.

The government optimizes towards the sole metric that economics MBAs are looking at and that is GDP. The OpenAI -> Oracle -> Nvidia kleinbottle creates GDP every time they pump money into the other.

I find it stupid because these are the sorts of thoughts I had about things when I was 15. I thought I was so smart and was drawing all sorts of profound conclusions about the world. And that's before getting onto the central point of how fundamentally useless AI is in the real world.

Supply and demand is one of those primordial truths that apply whether the state wants it to or not.

The fundamental issue with paying people to merely exist is they'll just multiply like rats until the system falls apart, at which point you've got a fuckhuge population starving to death.

Sounds like we should be consuming loads of resources before we all die, then, so that those who come after have even less.

Because people will take anything. All it takes is for Bob and Joe to say "no way, I'm not going down into the sewer" it wouldn't even take a week before Alistair meets them in his generic white shirt and says

>Well how much you guys neeeed the!? :(

I had problem understanding what's happening to the economy and its implication, but after an anon told me to use labor as the real currency and money is just an approximation of how much labor one can mobilize, things got much clearer
