Will AI be the new Covid for Trump?

[Votto]

‘Godfather of AI’ says the technology will create massive unemployment and send profits soaring — ‘that is the capitalist system’

"We are at a point in history where something amazing is happening, and it may be amazingly good, and it may be amazingly bad."

As we all remember, Covid came at the end of the Trump Presidency, sending the economy and jobs down the crapper, which helped to end his second Presidential bid.

But will AI do the same to the job market as Covid as it takes more and more jobs away from human beings?

Neither Covid or AI are Trump's fault. He simply is forced to wade through the storm and suffer its consequences.

Well, here's the thing. He's doing relatively little to regulate AI, which frankly is garbage.

There was this fun story about a professor who caught a bunch of his students using AI to write their papers, and he forced them to write apology notes, which the students then also wrote with AI.

AI is making us dumber.

Of course, it's not just Trump's encouragement of AI for his Tech-Bro buddies that are ruining the economy. It's his gutting of the public sector, his tariffs making everything more expensive.

He's just screwing everything up... again. Covid wasn't the sole cause of the 2020 recession, either.
