I was thinking they buy Intel and say “we are going to make Intel super. SuperIntel.” Zuck seems to like the term superintelligence over AGI.
They’re two separate concepts

#113This stuff is naive. There's a bunch of people who want a large income (wealth) disparity, and they will fight to preserve it unless you give them an equivalent station in the 'new world'. But you will still need to sustain ex-workers if they can't get normal jobs, and those same people at the top will not tolerate the taxes required to sustain a basic level of living for much wider population. They already can't tol…
I think perhaps it would be useful to completely ignore the nice words people use and just judge everyone based on their behavior.
From Zuckerberg’s behavior, since the beginning, it’s clear what he wants is power, and if you have the kind of mental health disorder where you believe you know better than everyone and deserve power over others, then that’s not dystopian at all.
Everything he says is PR virtue signaling. Judge the man on his actions.

#114>Personal superintelligence that knows us deeply, understands our goals, and can help us achieve. >We believe the benefits of superintelligence should be shared with the world as broadly as possible. So... ads.
That is the model everyone gravitate towards. Openai's Fidji too started with the note about how superintelligence is for everyone.
I think it would be back to income based tiers though. You want more assistance, pay $200 per month. Even more, maybe $2000 (for companies). Then, if you dont want to pay, you get contextual ads (which would work here because llms can contextualize far better), and a lower quality of service.

>There's a bunch of people who want a large income (wealth) disparity Apart form you of course, so I'm sure you'd be ok if the government would tax your higher than average tech wage till your take home pay would match that of a train conductor's or bus driver's, like in Western Europe, and therefore fix the wage gap you hate so much. Would you like that solution? Caption this: It's only a problem when the people who…
I could comfortably live on a bus drivers wage here, obviously I'd prefer they make as much as tech workers, given their job is much harder; your solution is fine with me too, though.

Unless you are yourself a robber baron the likes of Zuck, you should look up this little concept called "class solidarity."
I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy here of people seeing greed only in those with more income than them but never in themselves when they accept those generous big-tech, big-finance, big-ad-tech, big-4, big-pharma compensation packages from the evil robber barons they claim to hate. If you hate them so much why are you taking their blood money? Also, there is no class solidarity the way you imagine it in your fantas…
tech workers are in every literal way closer to construction workers than billionaires, and everyone i know knows it, even the construction workers.
Did you know my construction worker friend actually makes as much as i do? Amazing what class solidarity in the form of unions can achieve, eh?

> the government would tax your higher than average tech wage till your take home pay would match that of a train conductor's or bus driver's, like in Western Europe I live in Europe and earn ca. 6 times more than my friend who is a bus driver in the same city. We both have access to free education and, if we wish, also free healthcare, for which I am paying slightly more, but I really don't mind.
If you earn 6 times more than your friend who is a bus driver, you live in a place that has an unusually high income disparity for Europe.
Tech worker here, I just looked at my total comp, and it's about 4.5x that of a local bus driver. L+1s are probably getting close to 6x.

> the big-tech worker is closer to the robber baron Zuckerberg A big tech worker earning 200k is closer to a minimum wage worker earning 20k per year than Zuckerberg earning 20M per year with net worth of 200B
Yes, but from the point of view of the minimum wage worker, they don't identify with either the engineer or Zuck, so those two are equivalent.

And he's got a scheme to avoid taxes, i think is the takeaway here
