I think that the arms of the K need to bend towards each other, or we’ll eventually have a revolution. How to do the bending? AI is going to create gigantic value, and equity ownership is how the upper arm bent increasingly away from the lower. So, some AI equity to the lower arm is a logical approach. How to do that then becomes the question—thru purchases with tax money? Donations from the current AI companies? Confiscation? Some other way? At a min8mum, we’re gonna see a lot of these debates, given the upcoming power of AI and the growing have/have not gap.
@wholemars I directionally agree with Bernie, as getting the arms of the K to bend towards each other has to happen sooner or later, either way voluntarily sooner or involuntarily later. And sharing the huge coming value creation of AI is an obvious and promising way to do it.
A criminal justice reset is decades overdue: preventing the crime from happening in the first place, finding the crime happening now, convicting the criminals, keeping them in prison so they can no longer harm society. We have let this disaster happen for far too long—time to level up.
IDK, but an ounce of prevention = a lb of cure says focus on the latter. I would include it in a mandatory Life Lessons course in high school or so—how and why our economy works, what you need to do to financially live comfortably, how to take care of your body and mind, the reasons people behave the way they do, the power of science and rational thought, etc. You know, all the things that are the most valuable foundational things to know, that often are only tangentially or accidentally taught so they take a lifetime of self discovery to learn.
@heydave7 They are just another stepping stone to complete EV dominance, as battery range, prices and charge times will all continue falling. Surprised that you don’t understand/believe this.
@Elonmusk4r0dx@MoneyMadeEasyHQ@JonErlichman IDK about justified, but owes is primarily due to marketing by the investment sales industry. They know the allure of easy money is too powerful for a lot of people to overcome.
A small group of highly motivated people have been shown, time and time again, to be very powerful, much more than one would think. Would be a nice change to see those people be reasonable for once, in the face of an increasingly unreasonable world. Flip the script, to produce a good outcome instead. Spencer Pratt and his followers, might become an example of that, as well as Nick Shirley.
@DanPooreX@MilkRoadAI The Chinese have been doing it, and now Musk has, too. The others also know there’s huge room for optimization, they just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
@MilkRoadAI A key factor is the conservatism of TSC’s expansion—they are growing capacity far less than what their customers are pleading for. That insufficient future supply then lead to the terafab effort.
