    AI isn’t going to come with a new magic solution to global warming, it’s going to come with the same solutions we already have. Solutions which we should already be doing, but instead we’re listening to these fucks with too much money.

        Schmidt promises that these AI companies will make energy generation systems at least 15% more efficient or maybe even better, telling the audience that “that’s a lot of money for a utility.”

        He’s not even trying to be subtle about it.

            Can you drop me there first, please?

            I promise to be suitably wowed. Also, I’ll film them for you. Sacrifices for the greater good or whatever.

      The only thing we should use AI for is to replace CEOs. AI can spit out inane bullshit at a fraction of the cost of a CEO.

      Of course it will. Simple: build a bunch of killer robots to exterminate 90% of humanity. Problem solved.
