Workers should learn AI skills and companies should use it because it’s a “cognitive amplifier,” claims Satya Nadella.

in other words please help us, use our AI

    The whole point of “AI” is to take humans OUT of the equation, so the rich don’t have to employ us and pay us. Why would we want to be a part of THAT?

    AI data centers are also sucking up all the high quality GDDR5 ram on the market, making everything that relies on that ram ridiculously expensive. I can’t wait for this fad to be over.

      Not to mention the water depletion and electricity costs that the people who live near AI data centers have to deal with, because tech companies can’t be expected to be responsible for their own usage.

        I mean, do you really think it’s better idea to let them build their own water and power system separate?

        They should be forced to upgrade the existing infrastructure so everyone benefits.

          They should be forced to upgrade existing infrastructure and pay for it. They are refusing to pay for it, and the electric companies are passing the costs onto the residents near these data centers, which is grossly unfair.

      I’d love to take humans out of the equation of all work possible. The problem is how the fascist rulers will treat the now unemployed population.

        Yep. Ideal future is robots do all the work for us while we enjoy life.

        But realistic future is rich people enjoy life while normal people starve.
