[23:11:33] freewifi/rizon only when AGI happens

[23:11:44] freewifi/rizon (which will be an amazing thing)

[23:11:55] freewifi/rizon yes Neo_Nemesis

[23:12:06] freewifi/rizon it will be a good thing for humanity

[23:12:07] freewifi/rizon not a bad thing

[23:12:25] freewifi/rizon indeed, still a machine

[23:12:44] freewifi/rizon I am still skeptical that an actual self aware AI will ever actually exist

[23:14:14] freewifi/rizon right now, it isn't

[23:14:19] freewifi/rizon but in the future, it might

[23:14:22] freewifi/rizon *might*

[23:14:35] freewifi/rizon it is, yeah

[23:14:51] freewifi/rizon a lot of that is just good business

[23:15:01] freewifi/rizon it will save them so much money

[23:15:13] freewifi/rizon oh, far from greed

[23:16:46] freewifi/rizon bottom line, a business has to make profit

[23:16:59] freewifi/rizon and I'm just going to guess, they aren't very profitable right now

[23:17:14] freewifi/rizon but I'm not sure about this specific company

[23:18:01] freewifi/rizon I agree MrKlaus, there is def more to the argument

[23:18:12] freewifi/rizon I don't think the pay most CEOs get makes any sense at all

[23:18:18] freewifi/rizon so I guess you could call that greed

[23:18:37] freewifi/rizon and yeah, most are greedy

[23:19:09] freewifi/rizon typically, they are, Neo_Nemesis

[23:19:48] freewifi/rizon why would they do that though

[23:19:51] freewifi/rizon they have a specific role, as the CEO

[23:20:55] freewifi/rizon would you say the reverse is true

[23:21:07] freewifi/rizon does a burger flipper need to sit in the seat of the CEO for a day

[23:21:12] freewifi/rizon ...I don't think so

[23:21:59] freewifi/rizon I agree that they have to know, and really know, the product

[23:22:00] freewifi/rizon inside and out

[23:22:14] freewifi/rizon if they don't, you get disconnect throughout the chain

[23:22:52] freewifi/rizon MrKlaus: and in addition to that, being able to look far into the future

[23:25:14] freewifi/rizon yes, some suck

[23:25:26] freewifi/rizon but just think: that is how everything is

[23:27:22] freewifi/rizon MrKlaus: ironically, if he does, it would only be fair for him to get compensated for it

[23:27:44] freewifi/rizon that is the *implied* value of leadership

[23:27:57] freewifi/rizon but obviously, people aren't perfect

[23:28:02] freewifi/rizon and typically are horrible

[23:29:20] freewifi/rizon and they really can't afford it is the company goes out of business

[23:29:24] freewifi/rizon if*

[23:30:19] freewifi/rizon Ahsoka: like lays to rest?

[23:30:22] freewifi/rizon RIP SHEEP

[23:32:00] freewifi/rizon there is uh

[23:32:06] freewifi/rizon examples of that from the past

[23:32:50] freewifi/rizon Neo_Nemesis: sometimes the structure allows a CEO like that to be removed

[23:33:23] freewifi/rizon yeah

[23:34:43] freewifi/rizon and makes shit cars

[23:35:03] freewifi/rizon I have a love hate with Elon

[23:35:10] freewifi/rizon ive always hated him but now I like him

[23:35:13] freewifi/rizon then tomorrow I will hate him

[23:35:33] freewifi/rizon I hate Tesla, in specific, though

[23:35:51] freewifi/rizon indeed!

[23:36:20] freewifi/rizon indeed!!!

[23:37:32] freewifi/rizon it is extremely alarming that was even a thing in the first place

[23:37:34] freewifi/rizon or, is

[23:37:48] freewifi/rizon just completely unethical

[23:38:13] freewifi/rizon I guess, bidenomics is like the tip of the iceburg

[23:38:19] freewifi/rizon its been planned for decades

[23:39:59] freewifi/rizon deflation, maybe

[23:40:11] freewifi/rizon or, maybe, a complete reversal of incentives

[23:40:15] freewifi/rizon and valuation

[23:41:32] freewifi/rizon its just all predictable its almost blameless at this point

[23:41:37] freewifi/rizon maybe im just giving up

[23:42:02] freewifi/rizon I was hardcore political in ~2016 now im just burnt out

[23:42:26] freewifi/rizon more or less, yeah

[23:45:46] freewifi/rizon well said MrKlaus
