Agreed. Greed is consuming everything before our eyes.

Can't help but feel that AI is the killing of the golden goose. We thought it would kill jobs, but it may just end up killing entire industries.

Intellectual property incentivized many and laid many golden eggs, but why would someone toil to create a new algorithm to solve a problem if someone else is just going to steal it in hours?

But who knows, maybe imploding the software industry is a good thing. I may lose my house in the process, but I think we could all get back to touching a little more grass.

This is lovely. I really hope society returns to chasing beauty again. We need it.

What's so bad about it?

The price is in the hardware.

Either the investors know something we don't, or the market is irrational.

I also have found that AI has not lived up to many of its promises and have dialed back what AI gets control of. My projects were turning into unmaintainable messes. The people who say coding is solved aren't paying attention.

Stocks historically haven't performed well during periods of high inflation.

You're just parroting a headline. They did not actually make a profit in Q2 when you take all of their expenses into account.

Humans are inherently religious, whether you see it or not. We all worship something.

What does that have to do with the conversation here?
