This kind of data should be making every Genai shareholder very sweaty, and the stock market is a very panicky animal. Once people lose confidence the crash will be unstoppable.
Yeah. And actual usage was the only thing inflating the bubble. Companies are not showing the productivity gains per worker that were promised. The bubble is being held up on a promise of those gains that have not actually materialized.
Not to mention the inevitable AI talking to AI creating content used by AI to train new AI. Creating a feedback loop that inevitably crashes the entire development of it. We are placing the hands of our data infrastructure into a technology that literally hallucinates.
The AI slop we are getting in art and video is just a visual example of what is happening to businesses, data, and financial infrastructure. Something that will be significantly worse than an AI video of a dog saving a kid from drowning.
Unfortunately, what will happen, is the crash will inevitably lead to even more infrastructure being consolidated into the hands of the rich idiots that caused it in the first place.
AI could be helpful. But Jesus Christ capitalism is so incredibly greedy it pushed it into everything with the promise that we could exploit more labor value with less workers. This system is so self destructive to the workers that live under it.
…Thank God. To paraphrase Churchill (the bastard had some real zingers, whatever else might be said of him): “Large companies will always do the right thing… Once they’ve tried everything else.”
