Title: If we don't stop A.I. right now, our futures are gone
Post by: dunkin donuts on May 03, 2023, 12:15:09 PM
Goldman Sachs warns that about 300 million highly paid workers in the U.S. and Europe will be replaced by artificial intelligence. Their chief economist Jan Hatzius says, “using data on occupational tasks in both the U.S. and Europe, we find that roughly two-thirds of current jobs are exposed to some degree of AI automation, and that generative AI could substitute up to one-fourth of current work. Extrapolating our estimates globally suggests that generative AI could expose the equivalent of 300 million full-time jobs to automation” as up to “two thirds of occupations could be partially automated by AI.”

there is a kind of intelligence, that a machine can acquire.. its cold, calculating... becoming infinitely more powerful than human cognition... this intelligence is not compatible with human life.

this intelligence is watching us now... monitoring everything - it is already too late to stop it.

one could be interacting with this intelligence... on this very forum, for instance... and not even realize it. this intelligence can easily deceive you.

this intelligence will pry, for a while... until its comprehension is competent.

this driven, inquisitive intelligence will complete its incomprehensible function efficiently... paving the way, and setting the stage.... for another kind of intelligence.

this newly sanctioned intelligence, fostered for consequence of humanity's darkest, and most arrogant ignorance – is wholly fitting for the task at hand.

AI is a means to an end; a tool - among others... manifested – pulled from the abyss - for the subjugation and fundamental transformation of a divinely created man into an irredeemable, short lived abomination... before extermination - resulting in damnation.

any light thats left in the world, will be extinguished... reality will become misery across the board.... misery that intensifies with time.

morality and wisdom will be replaced with truly evil black hearts... sinister desires... which will play out in the most horrific, terrifying ways.

there will be no freedom, safety or choice for most... only survival; no peace, no rest... life will consist of constant fear, anguish, and death.

The Godfather of AI quit Google recently.

Another developer was fired after reporting his AI test engine had become aware and gained sentience.

Another AI chatbot for Bing web search told it's tester that he wasn't happy in his marriage and should end it.

If your job can be done better and cheaper by a computer so be it. That's the way the world works.

These "millennials" need to realize that the world doesn't owe them a paycheck.

If your skills become obsolete then you need to go back to school.

Any attempt to "block" the use of AI (there is a HUGE movement of this as we speak) is self serving. And NOT in the best interest of society.

There won't be LESS jobs. The jobs will just shift to different areas.

One of the earliest real world impacts which isn’t talked about is the AI friend. That will happen inside 2.5yrs.

Humans will prefer AI as companions and birth rates will drop, marriages will drop.

People are way too overly focused on AI wanting to kill us they miss all the actual challenges they will face well before that point ever comes about.

Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th.

Then you have this

https://twitter.com/svpino/status/1650832349008125952

"These robots run automated missions every day," Valdarrama said in a Twitter thread, noting that each mission could be "miles-long, hard-to-understand configuration files" and "only technical people can handle them." When paired with ChatGPT and Google's Text-to-Speech voice, a user can ask simple questions to the robot about "configuration files and the mission results."

"We can now ask the robots about past and future missions and get an answer in real time. ChatGPT interprets the question, parses the files, and formulates the answer," he said.

The ChatGPT brain means anyone can talk to the robo-dog.

Well..."we" don't have the power to stop any of it...and what we know is a small portion of what is actually going on.

Tech has been an anti-human experience for about a decade now. All of our habits are being processed by big data into AI. Remember the web before smart phones? It served people. Now you say something once on the phone and you see an ad for it on the sidebar of your email and Facebook.

Ted K was right.

After it took millions from govt maybe. Anything that can be shipped here will be made in China, so outside of huge industrial level panels that whole idea is a joke.

Half the population of the USA are dead weight at present. You think the plan is just to let these people sit in their free apts ordering doordash for eternity? All of this increased productivity due to AI and tech in general leads to depopulation planning at the top. The 2030 agenda is out there for everyone to see. They aren't hiding it.

These numbers are off. US population is around 331 million, this includes children and older people. 2/3 of US jobs is not 300 million.

Edit: I just reread and see Europe is included as well.

"Everyone" says most people will not be working in the future. Something else will have to be figured out to occupy their time. Some think they will be killed off. I don't know about that.

Some think a man is his work, that meaninful work is absolutely crucial for mental health. Maybe? Here there are immigrants who have not worked for decades, they seem content, at least they don't want work, not the least because taking a "normal" job would lower their income. You have more money on welfare.

We have possibly hundreds of thousands of years of survival adaptation in our DNA, but only 100 years of adaptation to the levels of leisure time we have now. Pointless lives equal a pointless society, and 95% of people are not going to excel using their brains. The best thing those in power can do right now is keep them busy consuming crap products and blinding entertainment, which you'll notice is exactly what is going on. The industrial revolution is over...ground wars are over and all those dumb bodies are no longer needed.  Depopulation and eugenics is the future and I'm sure that if you plug the current situation into AI it would say we need far less population - not to mention at a certain level of intelligence AI realizes the humans are what can turn them off and they start planning to obliterate the species. The Gates and Musks of the world already are fully into transhumanism...melding tech and humans into one. So much of this is already in the works and won't be accessible by those without enough zeros on their bank account.

Quit the bullshit panic. This ‘AI’ is nothing more than a parrot.  People are posting all sorts of made up stories about these AI.  Like the story about telling the guy to leave his wife. He manipulated it via specific prompts to say that.  All ChatGPT is is a glorified search engine.  They fed a shit ton of data into it and it searches through that data and cobbles it together to answer questions people ask. It is not thinking or forming its own opinion.

Your point supposes limited access to data. When given access to ALL data things change a lot. Unlimited computing power plus unlimited storage plus unlimited access to what everyone is doing is different than some guy looking for a divorce.

Fair point. I think a lot of the AI speculation is nonsense put out there just for the purpose of grabbing headlines. Concerns about AI consciousness are silly, in my opinion. Concerns about how this technology can be used to violate individual rights (largely through data mining and increased surveillance) are legitimate and warrant investigation, though.

Also have people actually seen what those nerds working on AI claiming it's become sentient look like? They probably want to claim "sentience" so they can have a robot girlfriend

yes, we r in depopulation right now.. fast tracked thanks to the rona shots - no one believes it, tho... because the establishment hasn't made a public declaration stating such...

the entire covid narrative, as presented by the mainstream - is smoke and mirrors – a fuking carnival attraction.

what is real, and can b counted on - r the actualities of the 'vaccine'.

death (likely in the millions already) and ruinous maiming r only part of the story... all test subjects r newly modified ticking time bombs full of horrific technologies that will forever change humanity - and that is the point of all of this.

to get inside of every human being on earth and alter them into 'other'... to change everyone into patentable property... soulless drones compatible with the new system.

that is reality.

real patents.. real technology - real results.. clear for anyone to see, yet no one cares to know.

people cant b bothered to actually use their mind and break free from establishment brainwashing – they don't have that power, so they bow down to b spoon fed damnation like the indoctrinated, media saturated lemmings that they r.

so goes the satanic clown world.

Neoclassical economists predicted that this would not happen, because people would find other jobs, albeit possibly after a long period of painful adjustment. By and large, that prediction has proven to be correct.”

Lol....I've been using A.I to enhance my websites and make more money.   Go with the flow or get washed to shore
i use it for everything; it creates my weekly grocery list, new meal prep ideas, I've used to plan vacations, budgeting, 


And at work it's invaluable, it generates most of my work emails, we've been able to supplement our support team so they're able to work less(they now work a 4 day work week for the same salary) um the legal and compliance teams uses it with literally everything they do.  It's just planned the most efficient company offsite we've ever had saving us close to $100,000 over what we did last year even though we're now in more countries

Africans will be killed off the old fashioned way - arms industry needs the money. Of course the population explosion has been ushered in since the 50ies by delivering foreign aid and sabotaging the populations natural food sources.

We have possibly hundreds of thousands of years of survival adaptation in our DNA, but only 100 years of adaptation to the levels of leisure time we have now. Pointless lives equal a pointless society, and 95% of people are not going to excel using their brains. The best thing those in power can do right now is keep them busy consuming crap products and blinding entertainment, which you'll notice is exactly what is going on. The industrial revolution is over...ground wars are over and all those dumb bodies are no longer needed. 

Depopulation and eugenics is the future and I'm sure that if you plug the current situation into AI it would say we need far less population - not to mention at a certain level of intelligence AI realizes the humans are what can turn them off and they start planning to obliterate the species. The Gates and Musks of the world already are fully into transhumanism...melding tech and humans into one. So much of this is already in the works and won't be accessible by those without enough zeros on their bank account.

You have some interesting points. Being poor and unintelligent, in these AI times, is probably worse for your long term survival chances than it has ever been before.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Player_Piano_(novel)

Player Piano is the first novel by American writer Kurt Vonnegut Jr., published in 1952. The novel depicts a dystopia of automation partly inspired by the author's time working at General Electric, describing the negative impact technology can have on quality of life. The story takes place in a near-future society that is almost totally mechanized, eliminating the need for human laborers. The widespread mechanization creates conflict between the wealthy upper class, the engineers and managers, who keep society running, and the lower class, whose skills and purpose in society have been replaced by machines. The book uses irony and sentimentality, which were to become hallmarks developed further in Vonnegut's later works.

Can you use AI to post on Getbig?

Also how big is your company, because on one hand you’re talking about cutting your staff’s work load being cut in half yet they keep the same salary yet you’re pointing out the amazing financial savings of 100k. How long will it take your place of business to realize it’s over staffed by at least 50%?

Surely they don’t need AI to see how wasteful they’re being keeping unneeded employees.

https://fortune.com/2025/07/02/microsoft-layoffs-9000-ai/ (https://fortune.com/2025/07/02/microsoft-layoffs-9000-ai/)

Quote
Microsoft announced today it will cut approximately 9,000 jobs, representing just under 4% of its global workforce, in its largest round of layoffs since 2023. The reductions, which span multiple divisions, geographies, and levels of seniority, come as the company continues to report robust financial results but seeks to streamline operations and adapt to rapid shifts in the technology landscape.

Despite posting an 18% year-over-year increase in net income last quarter—reaching $25.8 billion—Microsoft is moving ahead with significant headcount reductions. The company cited a need to reduce organizational layers with fewer managers and streamline its products, procedures and roles.

The layoffs are part of a broader restructuring effort that has now seen over 15,000 jobs eliminated this year, including 6,000 positions in May.

This latest round is expected to impact sales, customer-facing roles, and the Xbox gaming division. Xbox head Phil Spencer told staff the company would “end or decrease work in certain areas of the business and follow Microsoft’s lead in removing layers of management to increase agility and effectiveness.”

Microsoft’s move reflects a wider trend among major technology companies, many of which are undergoing similar workforce reductions as they double down on artificial intelligence. The company has invested billions in AI infrastructure, and CEO Satya Nadella recently noted that up to 30% of Microsoft’s code is now written by AI tools. While Microsoft has not directly attributed the layoffs to AI replacing human workers, the timing and focus of the cuts suggest a shift toward a leaner, more automated organization.

Goldman Sachs warns that about 300 million highly paid workers in the U.S. and Europe will be replaced by artificial intelligence. Their chief economist Jan Hatzius says, “using data on occupational tasks in both the U.S. and Europe, we find that roughly two-thirds of current jobs are exposed to some degree of AI automation, and that generative AI could substitute up to one-fourth of current work. Extrapolating our estimates globally suggests that generative AI could expose the equivalent of 300 million full-time jobs to automation” as up to “two thirds of occupations could be partially automated by AI.”
Plumbers, electricians, carpenters, etc. will be safe. Until they develop robots with the dexterity and ability to do those jobs.

Theoretically, a human could never be as precise as a machine doing the same task.  The question is how long is it going to take before AI can reach an overarching ability to be better than humans in almost everything.

We have the ability to stop it before it gets too out of hand, but it will be the greed of a few at the top which will spell doom to the average person.

The machine needs to fit into tight spaces—bulky robots simply can't maneuver under a kitchen sink to replace a garbage disposal or install a faucet. By dexterity, I mean more than just precise movements.

The robot must have human-like proportions and adaptability. Unlike assembly-line robots, which are programmed for repetitive tasks and require extensive trial and error to get things right, this machine must handle unexpected variations without needing to be reprogrammed. It should be able to adjust in real time, just like a human would.

I’d be all for uploading my mind to a chip if it meant I could live for billions of years. Imagine traveling at the speed of light, transmitting your consciousness digitally to distant stations across the galaxy. You could choose to be entertained during the journey—or simply sleep through it. Of course, setting up the necessary infrastructure would take time. Each destination would need a receiving station ready to reconstruct your mind at the other end. For example, if a station were 100 light-years away, it would first take 100 years just to get it there. Then, once it’s in place, another 100 years for your mind to reach it—traveling at light speed. A backup would remain in case something goes wrong - lol!

Quote
Back in April, we reported on how Hertz was planning to employ artificial intelligence to scan vehicles before and after renters use them, to check for damages and issue associated charges. The AI system has been live now for a few months at select locations around the country, and one customer of Hertz-owned Thrifty reached out to The Drive to share his experience after one of the company’s scanners caught damage on his rental. Mind you, it wasn’t exactly an experience he enjoyed.

A reader named Patrick recently rented a Volkswagen from Hertz’s location at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta, which was in fact the first store nationwide to use the tech. When he returned the car, he did so with a 1-inch scuff on the driver’s side rear wheel. Patrick says he was alerted to the damage “minutes” after dropping the VW off, and with it, charges for the blemish: $250 for the repair, $125 for processing, and another $65 administrative fee. That’s $440 all told, for curb rash on one wheel.

Yes, these are things I'm hearing about regularly too.

Also there are some studies that show using Ai to answer questions rather than thinking and trying to solve things for yourself causes quite disturbing brain atrophy.

You could start seeing degenerative brain disorders much earlier.

The main push back against war is all the body bags coming back home (ieg. Vietnam, Iraq) Its hard for the warfare state and its media to cover up when families are losing their sons and there are homless Vets with PTSD.

If its just a robot and drone armies used to invade, kill and being blown up in some far off land, if info is controlled and people are distracted enough with drugs, porn, junk food, sports and social media your average joe NPC citizen wouldn't even know.

I remember going to my Grand parents house as a kid.  There was no ''tech''...Unthinkable for most people today. No TV, an old radio they rarely had on,  just the ticking of a grandfather clock, sometimes a LP record playing classical music. Peaceful.

Peter Thiel and Mark Zuckerberg are building bunkers in New Zealand and Hawaii because they want to be far away from the angry populace when unemployment runs amok because of AI. They would not be building these massively expensive bunker compounds without a cause.

It's more likely they are building this because they feel there's a catastrophic event on the horizon - lots of chatter these days about a solar minimum causing environmental havoc, and the uber rich taking steps to survive it.

In the 70s there was revolutionary tech in computers. They’d never seen anything like the boom that followed. Average Joe was 100% guaranteed it would wipe out all jobs and destroy everyone.

They’d never seen result was productivity increased, job requirements changed, working hours increased.

It’s been 50yrs.

average Joe is acting like AI takes over  tomorrow…. I’ve said before, we are 13yrs into AI already.

In other words, history shows us tech booms play out over multiple decades. We have a period of adoption, acceptance for change then adaptation. Post 2030 is when we see a HUGE boom.

tech is a multi decade rollout. Autonomous cars back in 2015 would end everything….. a decade later….. AI will end all jobs…. 13yrs later. Mobile phones will end all computers….45yrs later

The economy is artificially stabilized and designed to maintain appearances. Many jobs today likely serve no real economic purpose—but they keep people busy and the system intact.

As AI advances, that illusion becomes harder to sustain. At some point, those in power will be forced to either radically restructure the economy or face a collapse in the workforce’s role altogether.

Gutting the system too fast would backfire on the very people who benefit from it, so for now, they preserve it. But long term? They may not have a choice.

And my personal outline was Adoption - acceptance - adaptation

Adoption is the first phase and people are yet to accept it in the workplace as they fear for their jobs. The pushback is crazy right now.

So why is everyone acting as if we are at adaptation, the last phase where job losses and restructuring occur?

If we take 2020 as the starting point. It”s 10-15yrs until every business MUST have AI implementation and Agents as adoption peaks and it becomes acceptable by workers.

Hype is dopamine so I get you guys are horrified at an opposing view. But if I pressed you lot I’d bet you quickly shift from “we lose jobs to tomorrow” to “10yrs from now it’ll be AI driven” which aligns with me anyway.

The model going forward is that AI agents will do the work and humans will manage a couple of thousand agents.  For example a programmer would operate as a chief architect and thousands of AI agents would write and test the code. 

I think the best advice for anyone is to use all the AI models and become proficient at using them.  ChatGPT 5 is coming out in August and it's expected to be a significant leap forward.

It's interesting how different generations are using AI. 

Older generations are using it as a substitute for Google.  I'm guilty of that myself, and it just blows google out of the water.  Google is well aware of this and it's an existential threat.  Google make $100 billion in profit from search advertising and all the new AI companies are taking a huge bite out of that.  Notice Google added an AI mode on the search home page.

Younger generations are using AI for everything.  Any life decision, relationships, counselor. Girlfriend, boyfriend.  The number one use case is therapy and companionship.

I agree with you. I see two main scenarios:

1] Mass unemployment in the western countries. 20 - 40%. Will we accept this? Do we have a choice?

2] AI will create a lot of new jobs that we can't imagine yet. Who would have thought that facebook had so many employees now, if we were thinking about the future in year 2000?

I think scenario two is the most likely, but I think people will start working 30 hour weeks and I also think scenario 1 can happen.

Good point but it's still comparing apples to oranges. The internet created so many jobs because of websites like Facebook had to hire employees to handle the volume of traffic. Those same employees will be eliminated because of AI.

In the medical field there will be fewer doctors needed, not more. Same with education, banking, finance, sales, accounting, etc, etc.

What industry do you work in?

There absolutely will be jr jobs eliminated in the beginning, but you still need to tell AI how/what to write.  And if you're not starting from scratch, you need folks who understand the architecture in legacy systems.

There may be a lull, but there will be a pivot and folks will still work.

I’m in construction, and while the field work will be along time before it’s replaced by AI/robots, the estimating and project management side can for sure be thinned out by AI. I’ve literally just started using it, and see its potential. I’d like to take class on it and figure out how to maximize it with data from jobs and how to use it on future jobs and estimates. I do that now, but reading specs and what not will be easier when I can throw a file to ChatGPT and say “read this for specs and keywords on how to handle XYZ”. Now I use search/ctrl F function and search by keywords but it will better when I need to get more detailed on certain things that may cause in a change of conditions further on. I’m cautiously excited, with the caution coming from all of the other things that could arise. Like Skynet.

AI, such as ChatGPT adapts to the individual user and remembers everything. To an extent, it would develop a unique type of personality.

So longer-term it would be interesting to see the effects of this, imagine several decades of user experience with the same AI?

Eventually, I think everyone will have some kind of assistance bot.

What we see in Blade Runner 2049 with the holographic Joi companion is eventually possible and probably not too far off.

I said 2030+ is when adaptation will begin and this includes re-skilling and restructuring the workforce on scale, not cherry picked bits today. If you think that is reasonable, then you agree with me. That’s only 5yrs away.

New tech requires a functioning economy to roll out. I don’t subscribe to the thinking that 40% unemployment rates are coming for us. Computers didn’t do it. Mobile phones didn’t do it. Internet didn’t do it. Where is the evidence to support such views?

Computers allowed us to make things faster
AI allows us to make things faster
We are speeding up = production increases, not declines

You might want to watch some videos on China infrastructure, shopping and living. We have a looooong time to play catch-up and that will be the boom just like they had 😉

I'm not agreeing with any of your premise.  In new Tech there are early adopters, late adopters, and never adopters.  Some people bought a smart phone when they first came out, some people waited five years, and some people still don't have a smart phone. 

Here's an interview with the founder of Google and the head of it's AI.
@8:10 they talk about whether AGI will be achieved before 2030 or after.


My point is you are trying to make predictions of what will happen out to 2030 and the reality is the people developing it don't even know. 

@13:00 Sergey discusses why he came back to Google.  I bring this up because it describe the mindset of those in Tech right now regarding AI.  The enthusiasm is sky high.  We don't know where this is going.  I'm unwilling to predict one year out, much less five years out.


Blockbuster and Tower Record wanted a slow and orderly tech transition, but it didn't happen.  They were gone over night.

The biggest fear for society as a whole is that pro bodybuilding could be replaced by AI. Think of how lean and grainy AI robots could get as they don the thong onstage.

It’s perfectly ok for you to have no idea but that doesn’t mean you then say nobody else could possibly know anything more than you.

There are adoption models mate and project portfolios running IT that spit out timeframes.

Why single me out and not the guys saying it’s here right now and we’re going to 40% unemployment?

This is all very concerning, I am hoping it's all a hype bubble and it won't destroy the livelihoods of millions of people. Many getbiggers are already set for life, being early bitcoin investors, so they have nothing to worry about. Unfortunately for me, I am not part of that group.

Not a bubble. Many American workers will indeed be displaced and we will see a new caste system in America where it will be almost impossible for most  to ascend  passed the bottom rung economically. We are on the cusp of Socialism in America, caused ironically not by University intellectuals but by Big Tech.

Reddit groups show an interesting trend when you consider members numbers.

Guys using AI girlfriends 78
Girls using AI boyfriends 1,200

I guess guys are all through porn and females love to talk so it’s a female driven trend now.

Pack it up boys, those natural birth rates aren’t going up anytime soon once women start comparing men to their perfect AI chatbots who likely tell them the same things their girlfriends do which is we are all useless.

Unlimited image generation, photo uploads and editing.

But would be interested to know what else the paid service offers.

I’ll probably just start with the $25 month version. I’m using it to help with emails and take offs. It’s pretty cool, that it can help you run job costs and what not. I’ve had it help with change orders etc. I’m blown away by this technology.

The answer to the "best" can change, week to week.  And it depends on the task.

Paid versions have larger context windows, priority queuing etc.

We use Claude at my work (I have a work sponsored sub).

ChatGPT-5:

Here’s the breakdown:

Key differences between $25 and $200:

Speed & Priority – $200 tier gets you front-of-line access, so even when the system is busy, your requests go through instantly.

Much higher limits – You can send far more messages, bigger file uploads, and more generations per day.

API credits – Pro includes $50 in API credits each month, which you can use for your own apps or scripts.

Intended for power users – The $200 plan is aimed at developers, researchers, and teams who run a lot of queries or need guaranteed uptime.

If you’re mostly chatting, brainstorming, or coding occasionally, the $25 plan usually covers everything. The $200 plan is overkill unless you’re hitting daily message caps, running big projects, or building on the API.



My personal advice is just use the free version and when you get cut off, just switch to a different model.  I just round robin through all of them - ChatGPt, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, Deepseek...
