    AI can’t even run an office vending machine so I can’t see it running a company.

      The one story i read about an Ai running a coffee shop said the ai was horrible at inventory management. Things like one day buying 1000 loaves of bread for a company that might sell 5 sandwiches in a day. Or not buying any straws for weeks then buying one single straw. I’m not worried about ai being nefarious but i am worried about a dumbpocalypse.

      AI decision: pay the workers a fair wage.

      Investors: a-a-ah, how do we reboot and reinstall this thing?

    The ideological trick is to call the state’s decision to stop protecting its people ‘innovation,’

        It isn’t “the west”. Not that the west was ever a meaningful construct. Intended to do anything other than occupy the extremely easily distracted. Turning them against others like themselves. It’s the state and those they serve. Themselves. Many of whom have just as much if not even more loyalty to places like Russia and China than they do the ones they live in. Not to mention China and others are looking to do similar in their own backyards.

        Every single state everywhere on Earth is secretly salivating hungrily in the dark. For the thought of opaque, obscure black boxes. That are hard to question and unaccountable. Which will justify the things they want.

      I’m not even sure an AI CEO would be as callous as some of the human ones. Destroying the economy for short term profit isn’t a sustainable solution, and the AI has every reason to plan long term since it doesn’t have a limited lifespan or a fear of death.

        That’s pretty much the only value add ai has at this point, putting another layer of obfuscation on responsibility.

      And when people can’t afford shit anymore, they’ll just have AI automate buying products it doesn’t need
