      But how people will pay for leisure if they don’t have income from work? You can benefit only if you target your services to people supervising AI or these who inherited an inheritance.

    I was at this meeting and heard this question. A few minuites earlier I wanted to ask a question about ai. But turns out I had to be there much earlier in the day to get a chance to ask a question. Some people line up at 3:00am. But I wanted to know if he thought that AI was a legitimate once in a lifetime opportunity or would it be a flash in the pan. Not really sure if that's the best question to ask. But from my own observations on that day. Many of the businesses there are good things that people can use or use everyday. Like duracell and the BNSF (rail road). Which I enjoyed his answer about the railroad later. Or Wells Lamont work gloves to name a few. I personally don't see much of a disturbance from AI. Many of these business have a firm basis in reality. Hey I came to listen to warren and for some Dairy Queen and some See's candy. But walking the floor gave me a new appreciation for Berkshire Hathaway and it's good businesses that sell quality goods in society. Just what I think by the way but really I don't see much of a disruption from ai concerning these businesses. Maybe assistance in taking some kind of custom orders in customer service. Which I think a website would do just as good a job. But I still don't really see much of a disruption.

    AI won't create leisure. Just like all of the other technology in business, email, MIcrosoft Teams, Texting back and forth when a quick phone call would have worked quicker. It's another technology that will add to your workload because you'll ask a yes and no question to your boss through an email and he/she will use AI to respond, but AI will write a long winded two page response meanwhile you just needed a yes or no response. AI will just be another office tool that will add to the office shanaigans.

      no it won't lol. if you believe that, you don't know anything about it. there's already been tens of thousands of people laid off in big tech, despite record profits. graphic designers are getting replaced. programmers are getting replaced. bookkeepers are probably next. AI already scores higher on accounting, medical, and attorney certifications than 90% of professionals.
      It will create leisure time because most people will be unemployed. When a $10/month subscription can do your entire job better than you can, why would a business keep you? The last writer's strike was literally just to avoid being replaced by AI. You are literally years behind on your AI knowledge friend.

    Im hoobiest progammer. AI is actually helping me to learn "coding" faster than a tutor. It give you 10X support rather than stopping them. Nowaday I just say "write a program where you start a server" in C or python or Golang and it just goes and "codes" for me. It so easy. AI is a tool like cycle, its a motor powered cycle.

      Then, how would you verify it doesn’t have any security vulnerabilities, or at least catches suspicious attempts?

      I don’t think you understand AI, there is no purpose to have AI with nukes… That is a weird concern. A more valid concern can be don’t allow nukes to be connected to the internet otherwise it would be potentially possible to hack and launch the nukes. AI could be useful in the hacking process. So someone with nukes wouldn’t put AI with nukes that concept doesn’t make sense.

    I don't understand why Buffett's opinion on AI matters. He's far from an expert on anything related to cutting edge tech.
    AI is an incremental tool just like all the tools humanity has built before. Nothing to be afraid of, just start picking it up and using it.

    • @particle_wave7614
      @particle_wave7614 2 місяці тому

      because we're in the 4th industrial revolution, and big changes bankrupt a lot of companies. Shareholders want to know his company is planning ahead. AI will likely replace hundreds of millions of jobs within a decade. Graphic designers and writers aren't using it. They're losing their jobs to it, already. Programmers too. No desk job is safe. And once humanoid robots are a little better, very few jobs in general are safe. That's not an incremental tool. That's the beginning of a new epoch.

      AI is not an incremental tool. It is a revolutionary tool. It will be improved incrementally until the singularity where AI improves itself at an immense pace where would have no idea what’s happening. At least physics and physical matter such as computers and energy would somewhat halt the progress.

      Everyday it becomes less and less so. Especially since some companies have put the GPT models from OpenAI into a robotic form factor.
      I think there’s still a long road ahead but to call it vaporware is profoundly undermining.
      GPTs & LLMs didnt roll out of bed in 2023 or 2024. They have been worked on for the greater half of 10-20 years. With the last few increasing seriously due to the semiconductors and chips being manufactured.

      AI is already used all over the place, your credit card fraud detection, Xray/MRI detection, Tesla FSD, Advertising Ad click optimization, ChatGPT, Google Email spam detection, on and on. When you think of AI, you are thinking about AGI, but in reality AI is already used all over the place. Think of AI as just statistics and modeling. Is statistics and math vaporware?
