7. I dont care what Econo heads say. This tech we're now beginning to use will NOT create jobs

It will be the largest job destroyer we've ever seen. I would bet a net gain of -9 out of 10. Bigger than when agriculture turned from horse and plow to automation (we needed people to build equipment and that supply chain in new industries). It takes very few people to let billions make smilies on their phones or ask Chat bullshit for the best risotto recipe. Don't give me infrastructure BS to power these data centers. Thats a net zero proposition as it will be public citizen tax dollars that pay for that and the exorbitant energy price hikes that are coming. When OpenAI is promising 25 fucking Gigawatts of Datacenters by 2033 they are as insane as the people who invest (er open their wallets) in/to them. An economic apocalypse is upon us and its name are The Mega Circle Jerk of Nividia, OpenAI, Palantir, AMD, Intel, Tesla et. al., and the Duopoly Remoras of Samsung and SK Hynix.

Best tighten y'alls belts an grab a life vest. The rising tide that keeps billion dollar yachts afloat is about to drown everyone else that has to swim in it.
