has anyone seen analysis/writing on the potential impact of AI automation on the economies of India, Philippines, etc that have a lot of outsourced IT, BPOs, etc?
Imagine all the call centers, backoffice support for accounting, outsourced IT, etc etc.
Seems like it might be a big deal from a global economic perspective, particular the balance of power between China and India. (And then, the global alliance counterbalancing China that includes India and many others)
@ChaitanyaaNair This thread just validates what I imagined must happen in those rooms after having listened to a few NITI Aayog officers talk. Would love a more detailed thread highlighting positive on ground outcomes of the work there :)
You’re not “high iq”, your obsessive introspection is stopping you from being authentic and crippling you with a false sense of superiority that you’re too important to enjoy the small things in life, too esoteric for the smallfolk to understand, too proud to be happy, and in the end you win the prize of misery and loneliness—lonely not because you’re too intellectual but because most people see past how ridiculous your whole shtick is, being “so smart” that you can’t even enjoy yourself. You’re miserable because you think suffering from self-consciousness is the heavy crown of being “high iq”, so you take delight in your woes while secretly resenting or envying those who can just live and be without taking things so seriously. And so, you self-sabotage because you think you deserve your unhappiness. In the end, you get exactly what you deserve.
I aspire to sitting on a frog shaped throne made of malachite and gold with throngs of scientists prostrate at my feet to recognize my best work. Please spend $10b of public money to make it so.
Tuition classes are also the reason we were never able to fix our schools. We externalised their failure onto the children. We mined the life force of the next generation to pay corrupt administrators and subsidize bad policy.
And this is why I am an advocate of sane working hours for employees even in startups. Working insane hours props up broken systems until they have no option but to collapse in a disorderly manner.
This is what I meant when I said it’s a form of pollution.
