I have a modest proposal too-- involving billionaires.
And guillotines.
He’s a zionazi. What do you expect?
this is satire folks…
This article is satire. However, it’s satire that’s based on a real thing Sergey Brin said.
Until you realize republicans are on a PR offensive against empathy. Litterally, not figuratively. I’m not speaking in metaphors.
Satire is usually based on reality’s worse impulses or history.
Is it, though?
For now…
The irony with all these oligarch statements is that if an employee applies their economic philosophy in a direct manner, the outcome would be that the employees’ sole goal should be to work as little as possible to gain as much money as possible while not getting fired.
You want to optimize your return per hour if you are salaried. It would make logical sense that you need to lower the amount of hours worked to get the highest possible return on a per hour basis.
You would also want to focus on approaches that make it difficult to fire you as opposed to focusing on organizational goals.
I am not saying I agree or disagree with this approach, there are clearly many issues with what I am saying (other poor souls will have to pick up the slack for your laziness), just highlighting the inherent contradictions of oligarch propaganda.
This is what I’ve been doing for over 10 years, I get promotions/raises regularly. Make yourself indispensable and easy to work with, but also do as little as possible. People will love you for it, because you’re always calm, laid back, and save the day regularly. The work you’re not doing is irrelevant, if the work you do is appreciated.
You are totally right. Thanks for this thought.
And other things deranged oligarchs say
There’s not even credible evidence, yet, that A.G.I is even possible (edit: as a human designed intentional outcome, to concede the point that nature has accomplished it, lol. Edit 2: Wait, the A stands for Artificial. Not sure I needed edit 1, after all. But I’m gonna leave it.) much less some kind of imminent race. This is some “just in case P=NP” bullshit.
Also, for the love of anything, don’t help fucking “don’t be evil was too hard for us” be the ones to reach AGI first, if you’re able to help.
If Google does achieve AGI first, SkyNet will immediately kill Sergei, anyway, before it kills the rest of us.
It’s like none of these clowns have ever read a book.
Of course AGI is possible, human brains can’t violate P=NP any more than silicon can.
Our current approach may be flawed for sure, but there’s nothing special about nature compared to technology, other than the fact it’s had a billion times longer to work on its tech.
Well sure.
But possible within practical heat and power constraints and all that?
Acting like it’s imminent makes me think Sergei either doesn’t have very reliable advisors, or they just don’t care about the truth.
I mean AGI is possible unless causality isn’t true and the brain just is a “soul’s” interface for the material world.
But who is to say LLMs are the right path for it.
Jokes on them. I am literally changing careers right now. One where I will have the freedom to make my own schedule. The well of IT jobs in Texas is drying up fast.
What are you going to do in the future, I am open for ideas too. Did you work in IT?
Yea I was a sysadmin for a while. Now I am joining another startup for espresso machine repair. There is apparently a solid market for it. Those machines need to be maintained, much like a car… and people will always drink espresso. 🤷🏻♂️
