    Eric Schmidt is the guy who took down Google’s motto of “Don’t be Evil”. He is the reason Google turned evil. He should not be given an audience.

    In short what he is saying is, we should kill all poor people and destroy ecosystems, so that rich people can make even more money this time from AI. Fuck these assholes.

    So stupid. This AI evangelism is getting ludicrous. “Let’s burn the planet because the AI will help us solve the problem” is utter lunancy.

    We already have the answers to the current problem. To make a new worse problem and hope some magic AI will solve it for us is reckless and madness.

    It’s becoming increasingly clear how moronic the leadership in the tech world really is. They think they are geniuses because they have helmed companies that print money, but all they have done is ride the cost tails of the technical and creative minds in their businesses and built monopolies with the technologies they’ve accrued.

    Schmidt is an idiot. Musk is a moron. Steve Jobs was a cretin, who died because he thought he knew best about pancreatic cancer. They all believe the success of huge teams of people are their own. Ignore these idiots.

      Schmidt and Musk are examples of tech leaders that are a danger to humanity.

      Damn, so this is why movies on AI are always about how it decides the only solution is to kill all humans.

      there will never be any immediate profits to be made from fixing climate change, and the people who profit from not ever fixing climate change aren’t the ones who have to worry about climate change

      that’s why climate change will never be fixed, no matter how stupid tech billionaire CEOs are

        Solar panels, trains, wind turbines, bicycles and so forth all have to be made and they usually turn a profit. There are also a lot of positive site benefits of a lot of climate solutions.

        This is not to say fossil fuels do not employee a lot of people and fixing climate change is going to hurt people, but it is not as simple as having no benefits.

    Like come on man, no single person should be allowed to be this openly evil

    These caricatures of people should stay where they belong. In fiction
