"This feels to me like driving the car without holding onto the wheel."

And this is why the whole thing will implode eventually. But there will be a period of pain until then.

Not if it is a self-driving car, which is increasingly becoming the case.


If it is a self-driving car then it can do recursive self-improvement. Then we are either post-scarcity or it kills us all. Either way it wouldn't make sense to worry about employment.


Unless it doesn't kill us all, but post-scarcity is paired with hoarding of most resources by the select few that control a surveillance state and autonomous police force.


No it’s not.

Anthropic has more powerful models internally. Why aren’t they laying off staff and stopping hiring?

You guys clearly don’t understand the difference between a) writing code b) building business operations

Please show me the few-man team that are killing it with llm’s writing most of the code - it doesn’t exist! It’s fantasy land stuff.


Jeezus christ.

Lost for words fella, lost for words.


They are in serious trouble.

The only solid outcome for the powers that be is that VC is allowed to cash out and re-invest it to ensure America stays ahead. Whatever happens to employee shares - who cares.

The gap between China and USA is closing. Im not talking LLMs. Im talking purely about innovation - USA may be technically more creative but China are great a) copying b) latching on and coming up with creative ways to be efficient. Having lots of VC capital with a preference for USA is very strategically important.


I think China is also creative, but plus they have superior ability of industrial manufacturing scalability compared to US.


There's a well established phenomena called managed earnings.
