It took me about 10 minutes total to sign up for the Fubo trial, set up what I wanted to record (college football, cnbc, pretty much it) and get it loaded on two TV’s. Differences between it and YTTV seem negligible. Might keep it.
What he actually says is that once AI and robots take all jobs, humans won’t need to work and goods and services will be free. People would then presumably be free to pursue higher purposes than making money. Like in Star Trek.
I’m just a little skeptical.
I got lucky as hell timing-wise. I failed out of GT twice because I was a) smart enough to get in but b) a degenerate party animal who never went to class. Fortunately I was good at computers, and in the mid-90s if you could spell IT you could get a good job (I got fifteen phone calls the first time I posted my crappy resume on Atlanta Computer Jobs in 1996). I’m also personable (really!) and can sell stuff so I turned it into a career making more money than I ever thought I would (and went back and got a business degree with a 4.0), but I’m really glad I’m close-ish to the end (I hope). I wouldn’t want to be embarking on a career now.
For now. This stuff is in its infancy. Look what’s happening already with vibe coding, a concept that has existed for five minutes.
We are driving on roads with cars with no one in them. And everyone is like “*shrug*, this is fine”.
2025 will be remembered (by the robots, after they kill us all) as the year this all really started (ended?). In ten years this world will be unrecognizable. Full enshittification.
