Jofaf :
No human labour = no salaries = no consumer market. It doesn't make sense.

DDog :
If you replace workers you eliminate consumers and since the US economy is 70% consumer spending then the economy collapses.

Dillon :
They have around $100b in debt. A successful IPO could pay that off and still provide a massive exit for investors. They don't have to replace all human labor, they just have to convince the market that they will.

Gaymudgeon :
They are making 90% margin on every token. 30 billion worth. His math is just wrong.

Then no one will have money to buy goods or services from the companies using AI and they will go bankrupt and then so will the AI companies.

But if you replace all humans in the economy, who is buying what the economy produces?

I think AI will realize humans have no value and do the logical thing!

Does AI buy stuff?

I’d be more concerned about this if AI had proven remotely competent at doing anything but basic tasks. But it can’t even replace customer service agents on the phone.

It won’t happen. Why are we suggesting that AI can even pull this off. It’s a Ponzi scheme.

Zhampoosh :
But who’s going to pay for these AI’s if people don’t have jobs. What are they needed for if people don’t have a normal stable income?

They are going to go public and let your pension fund bail them out. Dont imagine that they will ever have a profitable product
