ogaontop:Dey play! Nobody actually knows this. Even research labs building AI products don't know it. Those who say that AI won't take their jobs are only deceiving themselves. Sam Altman is already saying there will likely be a world where AI companies will be paying everyone for doing nothing. I know it's a big lie; humanity is doomed. |

Kokaine:Grok is shitz. Claude is by far the best outside Chinese DeepSeek. Claude is the best for actual academic and ressearch purposes. The worst AI is Chatgpt. That thing can lie and will be distracting you from what you really want to do. |

Graphics designers na I pity pass. Quick question: Would you rather trust the safety and handling of your finances to AI or human? Here’s a list of safe occupations protected from total Ai takeover btw

Treadway:Musk has said it. With AI and robotics, in future man will not need to work to survive...except to satisfy your greed (that's my addition) AI to think for you, robotics to do for you. Why work..?? ![]() |

TheStoriesOfMan:The problem with AI tech is how they are expending too much energy and resources. Real Scientists and Engineers are sounding the alarm that AI is highly inefficient and all those data centres that rely on outrageous energy to run and cool the GPUs is akin to frying an egg with a blow torch. The issue is AI is being designed not by real scientists and engineers but by tech geeks. All that data centres can not replicate the processing powers of a housefly. They are not understanding that there is such a thing as entropy i.e your brain sleep cycle. Every sentient being requires a process of work-sleep. |

The software engineer that even wrote the A.I algorithms might be out of work soon. I wonder what our life will be like if machine does everything and all we need do is press a button... Even God left us in the Garden for a reason. |

In 1980s up to the ending of year 2000, many governments of developed countries caution using of robot for replacement of human labour due to it'll cause unemployment, this is one of the disadvantages of technology that rival with human being in area of survival of families. |

jaxxy:Most of those positions were useless and not needed in the first place. COVID lockdowns exposed that most corporate jobs are actually adult day care centers. Most corps also keep these inflated staff numbers to get govt subventions and bailouts. By the way, Amerikkka is the only country on earth that socializes corporate loss via govt bailouts but ensures that profits remain capitalized and there politicians out there who will block taxing the greedy rich execs. |

FSBoperator:Don't let anyone deceive you; no UBI is ever going to happen. Nigeria is over 65 years with a GDP of less than $300 billion, while OpenAI is just 11 years and valued at about $400 - 500 billion. If a company that's just 11 years is worth over $500 billion, when will Sam Altman start paying us salaries? Is it when it reaches $100 trillion? ![]() |
