Just as it’s equally lazy to connect AI investment to future profit.
I wouldn’t say that. It takes some pretty wild mental gymnastics to do that. However seeing wealthy people babble endlessly about Ai and how they want to replace everyone with it as soon as they can. Then suddenly start seeing tons of layoffs as wealthy people try to replace many jobs with AI you could literally be comatose and make that connection.
Always projection.
When they needed investors’ money, they were selling this “Lazy” idea that AI will lower the employment costs (i.e. will allow them to fire 80% of the lazy and entitled human workers and replace them with cheap silicon-slaves).
Now they need consumers’ money and it turns out that the message “our product is smarter than all of you peasants, and you will all soon be unemployed, LOL” doesn’t sit well with consumers.
‘Lazy’ narrative to connect AI to job cuts, says Nvidia boss Stupid Jacket
Its so weird that so many companies let go a lot of their workforce the moment they got AI models meant to replace their jobs at around the same time.
