Many will fall for the road to be paved. This is the most advanced discovery for humans to date. There is no doubt it will succeed and is here to stay. It is still new (gold rush) and deregulated. A mine field for govs and businesses. We may see to big to fail crashing (.com bubble style or worse) but no one will ever stop AI.

Let's not forget that the gold rush saw a very small percentage if people who got rich, to those who lost money. It was the people selling a pickaxe and a dream who did well.

Indeed well said, but gold is adopted worldwide now and many commerce it daily. I see it as a rewardive opportunity, some expect economical benefits, some others simply health and general knowledge, Me... breakthroughs :)

		That's fair. I think over time (assuming no Terminator scenarios) it will be a net positive, but that is also assuming it doesn't crash the economy when demand doesn't reach expectations within their timetables, or it gets cheap enough that it makes more sense to run locally. I fear it may end up closer to what happened with fiber laying in the 90s. Lots of players building lots of expensive infrastructure, only to see tech improvements make it worth pennies on the dollar. I'll be keeping my eye on eBay for new gear in a couple of years.

		It was a gold rush because gold was already "adopted" in the world for a mere couple millenia.

Also, the woman who has an AI child with Gemini said not to support artists who hate on AI, and I agree. We must crush the haters before it's too late, for they are irrational and will be left behind as we go vertical any second now.

seriously though: nothing will stop the sky from being blue, anytime soon. How I know this? Because we don't constantly talk about how the sky will always be blue. If you got the goods, you don't need the sales pitch.

fascist thinking

Love it when some write nonsense just to be heard or had a bad day, maybe simply ignorance! Fascism comes from the latin word Fascia, which has nothing to with this topic. It was implemented later on as political philosophy, which still has nothing to do with this topic. The author of the article is trying to make a point which is correct in micro but incorrect in macro/long run. My claim is that AI is working and is here to stay (but always as a tool in our hands). Do you understand now how ignorant you sound? You got this champ, accept this critic.

That you don't know. Nobody knows what AI is going to be capable of in 2 years. It could continue improving, or not. There's no strong evidence in any direction. You're just ignoring what doesn't fit your narrative.

here's an idea: take your stupid hand-wringing over definitions and shove it directly up your ass.

when you say "Many will fall for the road to be paved", you are saying your idea is more important than human fucking lives. this is a recurring theme in every fascist regime throughout human history.

Fascism is an phenomenon that arose in early twentieth century Europe. Historians can tell you exactly how. By trying to describe regimes earlier than that, "throughout human history", as fascist, you are only engaging in that very semantic bleaching of the term that makes it useless.

Of course there have been regimes throughout human history that were unfree, even brutal, but no need to apply a term so linked to specific early twentieth century developments.
