"It's like early internet days"

No it's not, because once it reaches its mature form (which is clearly inevitable at this point) AI is easily going to be 100000000000000x as transformative as the Internet has been. It's going to be several magnitudes of scale more disruptive for humanity. Faggots like to angrily shout about how we're not "there" yet -- which is true, but pointing that out does absolutely nothing to dispute or disprove the truth value of the previous sentence.

No matter how big or fancy or complex or profitable "the Internet" has become, it was and will always remain just a tool (or rather an incredibly complex and vast set of tools) that human beings can leverage in order to achieve tasks. Without human beings leveraging and guiding those tools, however, nothing gets done. Human beings still remain the irreducible chokepoint of "the Internet" in all of its endless manifestations.

The entire point and purpose of AI is to fully remove human beings from the equation -- something that has literally never been done before in all of human history. And at this point, given the amazing progress that we've witnessed over the last few years, only retards and insane contrarians still believe (or at least pretend to believe) that we won't eventually achieve that goal; the only real questions left if we're being honest and objective are 1. whether it takes 3 years or 30 years to get there, and 2. which countries/companies will get their first. But I strongly suspect that almost everyone reading this will live to learn the answers to both of those questions.

XOXO, HTH.

The technology already exists to wipe out 100 million jobs

Even if AI never materially improved at all starting tomorrow

This guy is like durrr, nobody is using it at scale yet. First of all that's patently false. But it's also kind of like saying nobody used Netscape Navigator at scale for years. Who cares?

It's a weird straw man based on a lot of mental contortions to evade the reality that the technology already exists right now and it's extremely accessible

Unironically CR on the first point -- this is still early days and AI is currently the worst it will ever be in our lifetimes moving forward, and yet already what % of humans living on Earth are demonstrably more retarded and less capable than AI at the tasks that AI is being asked to do (research, analysis, coding, etc.) in its common manifestations? Probably >75% at a bare minimum, and that's a *very* conservative estimate once you factor in the sheer size and retardedness of the third world. Most people living on Earth today are objectively dumb as shit, lack even basic education, can't think clearly, and would horrendously fuck up basic tasks that require even the slightest degree of thought or analysis or sophistication if you asked them to handle them for you.

How long do we really think it will take to bring that number up to >95%, and at what point in that process will it simply become undeniable to even the biggest skeptics that AI is going to displace human workers in the vast majority of "sit at computer and do stuff" jobs that currently exist?

We literally have cars driving themselves around in multiple major metropolitan areas while LLMs churning out 30 page term papers for college seniors in just a few minutes, and niggas are still out here saying shit like "this is all a scam this technology won't actually change anything trust me I know these things." Sure thing, hoss!

The vast majority of humans are no longer worth the resources that they require. We're 5-10 years out from that becoming kinetic and for mass exterminations to begin to gear up. IMO, not Auschwitz, but more living in ditches hiding from drones, like Ukraine. It will not be 180
