So glad to see a MSM outlet take the words of an AI ceo with even a single grain of salt. I’ve been really disappointed with the way so many publications have just been breathlessly repeating what is essentially a sales pitch.
(ftr i’m not even taking a side re: is AI going to take all the jobs. regardless of what happens the fact remains that the reporting has been absolute sh*t on this. i guess “the singularity is here” gets more clicks than “sales person makes sales pitch”)
HN does the same. We don’t really have a platform on the internet for good discussions so we mostly get regurgitated talking points and a lot of flags/downvotes if it’s deemed a serious enough issue (f.e. pandemic) that taking a contrary stance is strictly forbidden.
