yeah no. one of the reasons plumbers or electricians generally do well is because their field isn't saturated with plumbers and electricians. hundreds of thousands of each means salaries of said jobs will go down. thus nothing changes. Add to the fact both jobs A. require trade schooling and B. apprenticeships. Also they're pretty much all unionized which you also have to get into. it would never fly, it could never fly unless you do away with trade schools, apprenticeships, and unions which leaves you with unqualified under paid plumbers and electricians.

This fucking leather jacket wearing mouth breather needs a strong reality check. preferably one that adds another hole to his head.

I wonder how long it will take for shareholders to experiment with replacing CEOs with agentic AIs. They'd certainly be good at spouting crap like Jensen is doing.

Point of a CEO is that there's one public person for everyone to hate that can be given an even more hated golden parachute if shit goes down. You can't do this with AI. Replacing AI with AI doesn't have the same effect on people even if it has the same effect in reality
