Jeff Bezos plays down AI dangers and says a trillion humans could live in huge cylindrical space stations::The billionaire said people living in space could visit Earth on vacation.
Sorry, Earth is only for billionaires now. Proles get to live in space tubes.
Which is literally what Bezos wants. He wants to move “heavy industry” into space to “save earth”. He’d rather spend his money flying the poor’s into space to work and die than on anything that could save earth for everyone.
EAT! THE! MOTHER FUCKING! RICH! Before they sacrifice Earth.
Literally trying to create the Belters from The Expanse lol
If this is the case wheres the next season bezos? WHERE NEXT SEASON?
The key word here is “could”. Just like billionaires “could” use their wealth and power to stop the destruction of the biosphere and free humanity from the shackles of wealth inequality.
It’d be a lot cooler if they did, but if they operated like that they wouldn’t be billionaires to begin with…
Billionaires: exists
Humanity: “Be a lot cooler if you didn’t”
While spending 75% of their earnings on a rent and the rest 25% on various subscriptions to continue functioning and enriching the multi trillion dollar corporations.
You will own nothing and be happy.
Imagine a world where AI helps 1 trillion people live in some sort of space station. Food is grown by AI, repairs/jobs are done by AI. All you can do is to chill & relax.
Yeah, I can’t imagine that too…
Our inability to increase the wealth of the elite will render us useless and therefor our ability to continue existing will end well before any of that happens
I assume we would be considered “homeless” then :)
This motherfucker mailed me the same blu-ray box set smashed to shards twice in a row before he finally put the third copy into some goddamn bubble wrap, and he wants me to trust his space station with my life!?
Says the guy who works his people so bad they have to pee in water bottles.
Bezos needs to put himself in one of Elon’s cylinders to go see outer space.
Preferably stay there if he makes it. He could defenetly live there if we send some battle racions sometimes
What do you think the people will be doing in his space cans?
I like how they believe in these systems working yet the couldn’t handle the fact that many jobs can be done remotely…
You will commute from your home space cylinder complex to the office cubicle space cylinder complex. There is no other way the system works.
Power tripping CEO’s be like
Oh no
Yeah no way these space tubes will eventually be used as an object to throw at Jaburo.
Once all the proles are in space tubes, genocide is just a life support system malfunction away.
Or Dublin.
Ignore wealth inequality, huff my farts. —Bezos
So this is why Prime Video cancelled The Expanse… Don’t want those future Belters getting any ideas.
Taki, beratna!
“Go slave your life away in my terrible space cans.”
I prefer to go to Risa
Jamaharon == snu snu ?
Not going to read the article, because it’s bull, the only way humanity gets there are for mentally impaired people like him stop hoarding wealth. I’m sure if we totaled up everything spent on yachts and gave it to nasa, or some other public space entity, I would be typing this in one of those tubes.
I guess this is supposed to be the 99.9%’s last sacrifice to our 0.1% overlords before the world boils away? “Many of you will die making my space tube, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make. I also need 72 virgins for repopulation purposes.”
More like Jeff Bozos, am I right?
I would love to see a trillion humans living in the solar system. If we had a trillion humans, we would have, at any given time, 1,000 Mozarts and 1,000 Einsteins.
So if one in a billion people are an Einstein or Mozart, does that mean there are 8 Mozarts and 8 Einsteins alive in the world right now? I wonder who would make the list?
There’s probably much more. Half of them only recognised in their village somewhere in the middle of South Asia, the other half too burnt out with work and continuous crises to notice they could be good at something.
I think that today’s world makes it harder to stand out as a genius, even with more opportunity. Most modern composers with any public name recognition are movie composers, like Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, and John Williams. Absolutely incredible scores without their movies, but are any Mozart level? I bet the Mozart level ones are probably well known in the orchestral world, but none of them are probably very well known outside of it.
And as far as scientists and mathematics, those roles have been pretty much entirely commercialized and corporatized. Even stuff for the public good is largely funded through grants and private investors, so the geniuses are always beholden to others who will take the real credit.
All of the recognized “geniuses” that I can think of are business-savvy grifters like musk and bozos and Zuck, all riding the coattails of the real innovators. Plus, these three specifically, if you look at their vanity projects and shit, they’re all pretty insane.
Artists generally go where the money is.
Mozart would be scoring movies because that’s where all the commissions are.
No shit, Bezos. Did you just pick up a magazine from the 1980s with one of McCall’s paintings in it? We’ve been dreaming of cylindrical space stations for decades.
Sounds awful
