Look around at the country right now

Nothing to do with Altman v Musk. That would be an AI boom that would be going full steam ahead without either of them.

Almost no one in the country is feeling a boom. Everyone is feeling the consequences of their greed and recklessness.

AI is the only thing keeping the S&P afloat. You don't want to see what it would look like when all pensions numbers start going down. So far it's fake numbers from inflation and the value is decreasing dramatically, but at least they still go up.

I very much do want to see. A necessary step to fix our problems is for people to stop lying to themselves and thinking things are "going fine".

A plurality of American voters are stubborn and stupid and won't change their ways until they feel direct pain, so bring the pain.

huh? What are you are referring to is the lasting impacts of multiple years of inflation after living without it for 10 years. Those issues predate Musk v. Altman and would be happening without them.

AI build out / boom would be full bore without them.

There is no boom. There are massive layoffs, massive inflation, and massive cuts to government services - all caused by the actions of Musk, Altman, and those like them.

The AI boom started a war with Iran and dismantled American public institutions?

Musk has a lot to do with the state of the country right now. Do you read the news?

boringg 3 hours ago | parent [-]

You are really giving him a lot of credit here. Thats mostly the news cycle doing what it does - focusing on the big stories and loudest speakers.

He ran a government institution that recklessly cut public spending and hurt us all. What are you talking about?

DOGE only cut like $7 billion dollars which is nothing in the bigger picture.

He was the de facto head of an effort to drastically cut the federal government, and he's donated hundreds of millions of dollars to get Trump and Trump-adjacent people elected. I ask again: do you read the news?

These are the kind of hot takes Bluesky needs to hear. And lets be honest you already have an account there.
