I am 60 years old. When computers started, I was told the work week would be reduced to 4 days a week. Today, people I know must work more hours, not less.
-
I was laid off from an office job in 2006 and had three years of self-actualizating me time before I could find full-time work again. You'd be surprised at how little time I spent creating art and how much time I spent worried that I'd become homeless.

The World is a much better place when Jon Stewart is hosting the Daily Show. Jon IS the daily show.

You know when tech bros call everyone a luddite? Never forget that the Luddites didn't just randomly hate machines. They smashed machines that were used by rich robber barons to produce garbage products in dangerous conditions without training and appropriate compensation. They weren't mad at machines, they were mad at their standards of living being deliberately and maliciously torpedoed for the sake of profits and power.

If they said AI can now replace all CEO's of companies so that they can run better. It would be a different tune they would be singing.
-
The problem with AI is not that it can do the work of employees for them It's the fact the corporation thinks it can do the employees's work for them
-
Had an IT instructor (in 2000) tell us there will never be a need for a system drive larger than 8GB's. People know what they know, but they rarely see the future accurately.
-
It was never about AI. This is just a new chapter of the Bourgeoisie vs the Proletariat.
-
"Raise prices astronomically and also fire everyone" is an extremely sound business model and there's no way this can go wrong.
-
It will give us more free time to think about things like "man I'm hungry" "remember when we used to live inside" "I wish I could go to the doctor, but I don't have insurance anymore". So much free time.

SO GLAD to have you back, Jon!!!!
-
I don't need AI for creativity, I want it to clean my house, wash dishes, windows, put on a new roof & a screened-in porch 😊
-
I'm reminded of the Twilight Zone episode where the manager of a factory begins introducing automation to increase production and lower costs. It ends with the entire factory automated, the entire workforce laid off, and the people who once ran the factory are too impoverished to afford anything the factory produces.
-
Companies keep forgetting, if you keep replacing/reducing your workforce, there won't be enough people who can afford to buy your products. You can't keep upping your profit margins forever...
-
So many people in this country are absolutely UNHINGED
-
He didn't get to discuss AI on Apple TV, glad he did on The Daily Show.
-
Jon Stewart coming back to the daily show was the best thing to happen in 2024
-
I think that a much bigger problem is not so much that AI will take away jobs (and it will) but the fact that massive corporations will continue to charge for their products or services as if they were still employing the hundreds of people replaced by that AI.
-
Jon channeled that inner George Carlin in there, that prompt engineer as "Vice President of Question Input" and janitors as the "Doctor of Mopping." Such great lines and delivery.

Sam Altman got that crazy Elizabeth Holmes vibe
