The car example doesn't show what he wants it to show... In reality, the automobile industry fucked us all over by making places dangerous that were once safe. In reality, many towns and cities would be better off if they had more walking and bicycling areas and less space for cars. The problem is, it's hard to undo the damage in urban design that played out over the last century.

In other words, don't buy into this AI bullshit, because once you let it take over, it's hard to replace. That's the real message.

... And I'm not saying all new technology is bad. But this is a bubble, and like all bubbles, it's mostly full of vaporware.

Short everything this man touches.

What were streets for before cars came along?

This guy has been sniffing too much black leather polish.

“When cars came along”… Is he 150 years old?

[-] Frenchgeek@lemmy.ml 18 points 10 hours ago

Do you have to be a moron to be a billionaire?

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 3 hours ago

No. The only requirement is to be a theif.

[-] Mrkawfee@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Some podcast I was listening to said you have ten years after becoming a billionaire when you are still normal then you go batshit because you're surrounded by people you pay to glaze you and assorted sycophants. So you should only be a billionaire for ten years max.

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 10 points 9 hours ago

Is he claiming to be older than cars?

[-] LostWanderer@fedia.io 7 points 9 hours ago

ROFL He is so fucking desperate to make LLMs fetch, I love that there are all these stupid quotes to throw back in his face later on to harm any credibility people claims this idiot has.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

I have no issues with society changing. How about making fortunes bigger than one billion dollars taxable? Without deductions, of course.

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 3 hours ago

Only if it's 100%

[-] LightDelaBlue@jlai.lu 20 points 16 hours ago

but cars was pushed by lobby by destroying citys planing and public trasnport. taking car as example is BAD.

[-] TheGreenWizard@lemmy.zip 16 points 15 hours ago

And much like how we would warn each other about incoming cars while playing in the street, now we warn each other when stuff is made with ai.

"You need to buy more shovels !" shout the shovel maker.

This guy had his childhood before cars were a thing? How old is he?

[-] Infrapink@thebrainbin.org 24 points 16 hours ago

He was born in 1963, a time when the Netherlands were as car-focused as the USA. When Huang was a child, the number of parents killed by cars outraged Dutch parents, and they mounted a years-long protest campaign under the slogan "Stop murdering children" (but in Dutch). The protests were big enough that the government listened and changed Dutch transport infrastructure in major, fundamental ways. They built lots and lots of bike lames as well as investing heavily in buses and trains. The overall result was aaddive turn away from cars, and streets are once again safe fir children to play in.

Capitalist: "You should use my product"

Groundbreaking.

[-] RodgeGrabTheCat@sh.itjust.works 55 points 21 hours ago

This guy had been letting his ai think for him a bit too much.

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 73 points 23 hours ago

The worst metaphor possible lmao.

[-] Naich@piefed.world 12 points 20 hours ago

It's actually a really good metaphor.

[-] galoisghost@aussie.zone 28 points 20 hours ago

It really is, just not the way Jensen Huang thinks it is.

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 12 hours ago

More accurate for sure

AI is great! I work in programming and when I got thrown into this project ... AI went down for two hours and I was in a rush so I asked my coworkers that have been working on a project for four weeks how auth worked they and had no idea, they didn't know how the application fucking worked, nor what we used redis or the db for or any of this shit. It's so good losing the respect of my all my coworkers! /s

[-] john_lemmy@slrpnk.net 4 points 15 hours ago

Or when you just try to set up the local dev environment and that shit doesn't work because they added some bearer tokens needed for auth to a Claude.md file that I obviously didn't read.

Normalising the destruction of human environments is the USP of AI. You got it, buddy.

You have to use my product or I'll cry!!!!!

Vibes AI-Karen is giving right now.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 16 points 19 hours ago

In the right countries you can still play in the street, even while cars exist

Then again, you live in the USA z so no surprise there and good on you for using an example of something bad and portray it again as something great. Goes well with your AI talk

[-] Th4tGuyII@fedia.io 21 points 20 hours ago

Ah yeah, let's listen to the company who's infinite money glitch relies on AI sticking around to tell us what has to change

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 31 points 22 hours ago

I'm nearly 40 and I play still play basketball in the street from time to time. WTF is this guy talking about?

[-] JimFox@lemmy.zip 3 points 10 hours ago

Mostly distopian-like horseshit with a big fuck you shaped cherry on the top. Fuckin Jensen...

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I haven't seen that cherry trick before.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 7 points 19 hours ago

Veeery much depends on where you live...

[-] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 7 points 19 hours ago

It always has.

You're not going to be rolling out a basketball hoop into the cul-de-sac if you live on the 10rh floor of a New York City apartment complex.

But that type of thing still happens millions of times every week across the globe.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

Right, and this commenter fails to understand that people have different frames of reference, and perspectives, and experiences. It's an analogy.

Or rather, I think they know what he means, and they're just intentionally acting unwise.

Either way, Nvidia can go f—k themselves. Glad I went fully team AMD with this last PC build.

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 points 14 hours ago

I have bad news for you. Lisa Su has been cozying up to Trump for increased AI spend and lax regulations too.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago
[-] kboos1@lemmy.world 11 points 20 hours ago

What a stupid analogy. He should be fired for making such a stupid analogy, it's like if he can't make a proper analogy then he probably can't figure other simple things

[-] Dryad@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

He had AI write his rebuttal.

[-] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe 14 points 20 hours ago

You're absolutely right about that! ✨

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
