I really don’t understand why we give credit to this pile of wishful thinking about the AI corporation with just one visionary at the top.
First: actual visionary CEOs are a niche of a niche. Second: that is not how most companies work. The existence of the workforce is as important as what the company produces Third: who will buy or rent those services or products in a society where the most common economy driver (salaried work) is suddenly wiped out?
I am really bothered by these systematic thinkers whose main assumption is that the system can just be changed and morphed willy nilly as if you could completely disregard all of the societal implications.
We are surrounded by “thinkers” who are actually just glorified siloed-thinking engineers high on their own supply.
