You don’t believe in investing in the world you want to create? I’m surprised seeing people invest in AI, palantir, Tesla etc.

The world you’re creating through investing in these companies is going to make whatever gains you have untenable.
It’s not about the world I want to create, it’s about the world these companies and governments are creating and the direction they want to go in.

Earnings drive price and if a company is getting insane business to make chips for A.I that’ll eventually be replacing people then I’m investing in it.

There’s no sense standing on the sidelines and watching jobs go away without making money and building a substantial foundation portfolio that’ll make money from it.

I don’t want it to happen, but this stuff is going to take over skilled and unskilled work. I’m insanely close to finishing my Electrical Engineering Bachelor’s and have legit used some A.I to design some real world circuits already. I know so much code out there working in real world production has been written by A.I and it works great. This stuff is impacting things right now and will be crazy in 10-15 years, so may as well make money now and in the long run by investing in it.

Think of how many people r doing Uber and Uber is planning on replacing them all with driverless cars. Waymo already barely making no mistakes

Get ready for the other shoe to drop when it comes to AI and it has absolutely nothing to do with the labor force…

Uh-huh, they made you believe they drunk the koolaid and didn't understand they were building out job replacements.

Think what you what you want bruh. If the idea you're presenting isn't rocket science people working on these projects know and understand it. You just work with them and aren't actually them so that's where your understanding comes from. Yeah, they made you believe that's who they are. But they're working in corporate and highly political positions just like you are.
Nah he's actually correct. The Godfather of A.I said he tried to warn ppl but it seems only the people who are in charge of hiring all these people training their A I models knew what was really happening.

It is about the world you want to create. You’re assisting them in creating that world by giving them your money. People like Peter thiel, Elon musk, Sam Altman want to create a literal technocracy. We just watched a technocrat literally buy a presidency. As we speak Israel/palantir are using AI to find, track, and murder people. They want to automate jobs while cutting government funding to programs for poor people. Let that sink in.

You're not standing on the sidelines, you’re facilitating the process. I think in 20 years, you’re going to say the 10% gain on your “investment” wasn’t worth the economical and societal damage you helped create.

These governments are making robots to autonomously navigate battlefields by land, sea and air but people think a clogged toilet and welding some pipes are the pinnacle of problems robots can’t fix :mjlol::heh:

exactly them shyts are lower on the Profit totem pole. Us having Toilets and fridges with "self healing" properties will be the easy thing.

If I don’t invest, they’ll do it anyways.

I rather make money with them. This is real life.

The other option is to stand around with the “misery loves company” crowd coping and seething down the road with nothing to show for it, while predicting this thing was going to go exponential.

And you think in another other sub forum everyone is an MIT graduate? :dead:
What a dumbass response. No but in other threads and subforums we have actual engineers commenting. I know who is who and the warehouse workers be running amok in here.

You’re not making money with them. :mjlol:

You’re hoping to get a small return at best. They made billions as soon as the company went public. What happens to your investment when there’s no jobs because of automation, you can’t even protest because palantir is monitoring literally everything ie social media, ring and traffic camera footage, and theres no government assistance because they purchased the politicians (like they did this election)? Communites will be policed by robots running on AI software with the racial prejudice coded into the software At Elon Musks/peter thiel‘s request. What little jobs are left are being competed for not just by Americans but immigrants all over the world. It’s a race to the bottom at that point.

We should be advocating for worker protections under AI, not investing into these companies. For example, we are not even at least benefiting from having the income in developing the technology that’s going to take our jobs. They have foreigners on work visas taking the jobs, that are creating technology that will automate the American jobs that they already took. In other words, Americans are replaced by foreigner H1B workers, who are then replaced by AI. That’s treason.

Edit: TLDR, what I’m saying is the collapse of the American economy and basic societal structures due to a technocratic autocracy will far outweigh and gain on investment into these companies.

The positive impact of AI on society could exponentially improve our educational system, energy production, transportation systems, the providing of basic essentials, etc. Which would also have the affect of making it cheaper to live a good life.

Unless...

The Oligarchs decide to keep all the profit and benefits to themselves and the government doesn't do anything to stop them :coffee:
It’s interesting that u say this cause with all this panic about ai this really should be an opportunity to do shyt that they should’ve been done

Better more efficient energy grid, training the population in actual careers that will improve the country, lower costs across the board, etc.

Then once you add ai it should in theory improve things overall

But it’s probably going to be used first for wars, various types of surveillance, and what’s going to make companies profits as quickly as possible then maybe they will think about what could help society

I’ve already made a good amount on it though, real money. It’s only just getting started. I can leave my money in these stocks and it’ll scale incredibly well over time. People need to understand compound interest.

I guess this is the point where morals come in, but I’m simply not going to let opportunity pass me up. This is all still early.

Being pissed at A.I and making money off it is still better than being pissed at A.I and having made no money from it.

I don’t see the point of knowing A.I is coming and not getting anything out of it. I see the opportunity to retire off of it because how big and apart of society it’ll be so I’m investing and taking advantage of the compound interest to come from it.

A skill that can't be replicated by A.I is the only thing that's gonna save a lot of people. Watch how enrollment in trades programs explode in the next couple of years. By 2030 they are gonna be the wave.


And once there is an over abundance of people in those fields the salaries will start to go down as well as opportunities to go into the field.
