Business actually treats a pseudo-dictatorship (with the requisite yes-men) as "good leadership".

Most times it's pretty simple, in my experience. A CEO either runs a business as a (1) Sales focus [best deals and vendors] or (2) Marketing focus [best reputation and trends] or (3) Investor focus [best boardroom friends].

Lots of other opinions are usually thrown out until there's really only one facet used for running the company.

Sure, if by business you mean investors.

is there a (4) or (5) that would be preferable? :)

Has anyone asked what customer will have any funds to buy products?

Once all these brilliant workers are stacked and mentally stunted and decayed because they were removed from any research.

What does the AI really "do" (if it can) and for who that can pay?

I wonder too what happens when all the human workers are out of the job and out of practice, and every company is dependent on a handful of dominant AI companies for their workforce. You'd think businesspeople would understand the concept of a captive market but apparently they're too busy salivating over the prospect of laying people off.

This has a lot riding on a fallacy.

Interest rates in fiat currency, these days, are not due to scarcity of lendable funds. Saving rates by consumers actually are just a low-risk or high-risk form of rent seek8ng., depending on the economy.

There's no world these days where a vast amount of collected wealth by a few makes credit suddenly cheap for all consumers.

All wage earners will still be able to drive up inflation if they demand goods that are not able to keep up easily... therefore pressure to save (to not take out debt) will raise interest rates fine by itself.

Unless we are talking about fiscal-based government spending (and interest on fiscal debt), no increased access to credit will become "better for all". Businesses can absorb all the credit offered during good times and consumers may see none.

Business failures will suddenly dump some assets on the market at fire sale prices, but a lost job makes those fire sales of little solace.

The important point is what a deserter would use as logic when asked "What if everyone gave up and only responded to selfish fear?"

Then, sir, it would be foolhardy to contribute any part to that service because soon it will all collapse.

That's, in a historically commonplace fashioned see today, is what the top 10% are doing when seeing the top 1% abdicate all responsibility.

Low or no taxes? Sounds good ... but it's going to burn down soon.

That seems utterly disingenuous as nearly every single other advanced economy IN THE WORLD has near free health care.

They have it because they don't spend on defense like the USA does. The US taxpayer is the world's golden goose and by means of things like NATO are subsidizing the European socialist healthcare systems.

If the USA cut it's funding in these lines Europe would be back to square one in a very shot time.

> They have it because they don't spend on defense like the USA does.

That doesn't feel right to me.

In the most recent year with data, as a percentage of gdp:

party healthcare military

eu 10.95% 1.56%

usa 17.36% 3.45%

stark difference, but "the only reason eu has socialized healthcare is because of their low military spending" just doesn't reconcile in my mind to the above numbers

[source data](https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/euu/eur...)

The US pays more per person for healthcare than any other nation. This would be true if we doubled defense spending, or if we cut defense spending to zero.

This just seems like the USA's poor spending choices. We could easily have a similar healthcare system as the rest of the developed world, if we chose not to buy all those bombers and aircraft carriers.

I don't know the source of this rhetoric but you should look into the data instead of spewing this garbage. Another comment already put up the percentage expenditure on healthcare between what you consider "socialist" healthcare system, and the USA's corrupt system. You pay more for a lower quality service, the socialised (not socialist) system is less onerous to societies than the middlemen-riddled system of the USA, you get more bureaucracy, less coverage, while paying through the nose for a service you don't even know you will get provided.

It's simply a stupid system, it doesn't work, in a functioning society it would be accepted as a massive issue and reworked. Instead you have your democratic system captured by corporations who need this system to be perpetuated, you are right about the US taxpayer being the golden goose but not for the world, it's the golden goose for whole industries operating inside the USA to work on extracting maximum value from its population.

It's not the rest of the world milking you, it's your own corporations milking you dry.

Pure cope.

This is silly.

Inhabited areas everywhere and non-inhabited areas everywhere have had an extreme growth in wildfire.

The gains stay the same be cause they were examples to other human-apes with other invisiible-line kingdoms.

Sum totals for the coal spewing nations and states among us are far worse.

They need to burn their coal to get out of their poverty, like we did.

1 technology has moved on significantly. There are new options, and increased focus will deliver more.

2 if a few hundred million people burn coal while we move up the tech tree it’s not a huge deal. If 7 billion people do, it really is. That’s a big part of why China has embraced solar, hard. It’s a new reality and we need solutions that fit the context.

Current AI degrades totally unlike human experts. It also, by design, must lag its data input.

Anything innovated must come from outside or have a very close permutation to be found.

Generative AI isn't scary at all now. It is merely rolling dice on a mix of other tech and rumors from the internet.

The data can be wrong or old...and people keep important secrets.

Gotta wonder if Google has used code from internal systems to train Gemini? Probably not, but at what point will companies start forking over source code for LLM training for money?

It seems much cheaper, safer legally and more easily scalable to simply synthesize programs. Most code out there is shit anyway, and the code you can get by the GB especially so.

How do they synthesize programs?

I would assume that internal code at Google is of higher quality than random code you find on Github. Commit messages, issue descriptions and code review is probably more useful too.
