Larry Fink, CEO of @BlackRock, says developed nations with “xenophobic” immigration policies are going to have a higher standard of living than ever before.

This is the scariest thing I see coming in the next decade.
I can easily see a world in which populist nationalists finally triumph in the West: the borders are finally closed, immigration slows to a trickle, remigration of Third World immigrants begins, etc. It also happens just in time for AI to start replacing millions of human workers.
“Architects of the leading generative AI models are abuzz that a top company, possibly OpenAI, in coming weeks will announce a next-level breakthrough that unleashes Ph.D.-level super-agents to do complex human tasks.
We’ve learned that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman — who in September dubbed this “The Intelligence Age,” and is in Washington this weekend for the inauguration — has scheduled a closed-door briefing for U.S. government officials in Washington on Jan. 30.
Why it matters: The expected advancements help explain why Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and others have talked publicly about AI replacing mid-level software engineers and other human jobs this year. …”
“Jake Sullivan — with three days left as White House national security adviser, with wide access to the world’s secrets — called us to deliver a chilling, “catastrophic” warning for America and the incoming administration:
The next few years will determine whether artificial intelligence leads to catastrophe — and whether China or America prevails in the AI arms race.
Why it matters: Sullivan said in our phone interview that unlike previous dramatic technology advancements (atomic weapons, space, the internet), AI development sits outside of government and security clearances, and in the hands of private companies with the power of nation-states.
Underscoring the gravity of his message, Sullivan spoke with an urgency and directness that were rarely heard during his decade-plus in public life.
Somehow, government will have to join forces with these companies to nurture and protect America’s early AI edge, and shape the global rules for using potentially God-like powers, he says.
U.S. failure to get this right, Sullivan warns, could be “dramatic, and dramatically negative — to include the democratization of extremely powerful and lethal weapons; massive disruption and dislocation of jobs; an avalanche of misinformation.
Who is going to be in charge of AI under Trump?
It is going to be tech bros like Marc Andreesson and David Sacks who is the new “AI czar.”
Note: Check out Andreesson’s “Techno-Optimist Manifesto” to get a sense of where the people guiding the White House on the subject are coming from.
Human intelligence is a creation of God and can not be duplicated. AI, trannyisms, man made climate change, DEI all share the same common thread, a hatred for God.
AI will fail to deliver most of what is claimed. It will probably have a few niche applications where it works to some limited extent but like every other high-tech thing over the years it over promises and under delivers.
Just a heads up with AI to me it’s digital sophistication,
X-ray techs are going to be a thing of the past with digital imagining advancing.
Think Analog as back up, just saying!
Win!
X-ray techs are going to be a thing of the past
……radiologists may be a thing of the past.
They now have new digital CAT scans in Dentistry and digital imaging, (envisionlie) that can detect small cavities with out X-rays , and root canals where microscopic nerve tissue was not removed, it’s called a root canal done over!
I know,l the cost!,
Live and learn!
Win!

“Human intelligence” is very limited, there’s no limit to machine memory or or array processors. AI is potentially unlimited in any direction.
What happens when AI starts designing AI ?
What really piques my curiosity is molecular modeling with Ai. Everything from chemical weapons to cancer drugs and synthetic nutrition. What potential does it have?
Ai education is another thing.
A teacher that is infinitely patient, knows your strengths and weaknesses and can help at all the points you need improvement.
The MIC will be sucking up AI like a thirsty camel.
The potential for weapons design and management are beyond imagination.
Will AI have imagination?
Will it be able to start having non-directed thinking, thinking on its own? Start with a clean slate and start developing independent ideas?
“This is the scariest thing I see coming in the next decade.”
You’re well justified in that.
For those who haven’t seen it, the movie ‘COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT’ is well worth watching. When two computers ally and take over the world’s nuclear arsenals.
If the Russians don’t make a full court press on AI, it will be the greatest mistake they ever make.
I know the Chinese are at this with total zeal, they keep hiring German engineers and buying German companies.
ASML photo-lith machines are the key critical piece in this race. ASML producers the the photo-lith steppers that are used by all leading edge foundries, TSM etc.
( the optics in ASML machines are made by Zeiss in Germany. )
If AI were to displace all workers, then the government is obligated to issue basic incomes checks to all displaced workers. And it can’t be a one-time distribution. At least the Indians would be displaced and once displaced deported back to India.
If AI were to displace all workers
It won’t be all, but a great many.
One programmer can do the work of 5.
Same with many allied professions.
Sam Altman is a modern day khazarian P.T. Barnum, I cannot think of a tech CEO who is more full of shit than him.
Yes, but he has a lot of smart goys working for him.
This is a pattern among jwz, they’re very good a sniffing out the best talent of goys to do things that they themselves are incapable of doing.
