Here's the segment:

He seemed pretty coherent to me. At times clearly thinking faster than his mouth can keep up but really no big deal.

Pretty interesting how he's fully accepted that there will be "a wealth tax" as a result of a backlash against AI. And how the CEOs he knows are "livid" about how totally useless AI is even after they jumped in boots and all, lol

3:44 - [our customers] want to know they own the means of production.

Does he even know what that means...

[–] rimu@piefed.social 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think so. He meant the capitalists, who are his customers, want to own their means of production. Not rent it from their competitors or suppliers.

First time I've seen that phrase used that way but it works.

It does indeed! He's ranting about a capital tax too, where he just means 'the cost of tokens'. He's flailing wildly.

It works because those are the one's we need to seize those means from...

Worked for a company that was using GCP for the entire infrastructure just bc no wanted their product to be touching even with 10’ pole with Amazon.

Capitalists want to own the means of production, and currently mostly do. So he does.
