So it sounds like he’s saying no one will work enough to qualify for employer sponsored healthcare… Or at least be able to afford it.
So congrats, don’t ever get sick or lose a job! Plus your taxes are going up. Fuck you, you should have been a rich pedophile if you wanted differently!
Thanks for spending billions on malaria, asshole. If you would have paid your fucking taxes and supported the country we wouldn’t be in this mess.
Oh yeah, a politically unstable US will directly lead to local conflict between factions in African countries. Thanks to your malaria funding there’s now more rape victims and child soldiers than ever!
Don’t forget HIV, which the US is no longer supplying aid for
Problem - They’ll want to pay you for 0 days a week.
“Warns”
Disclaimer: * also a main proponent of said AI he definitely doesnt have stock invested in companies whose survival, and his paycheck, depend on. Absolutely 1000% facts being spatial here.
P.s. now please don’t delete my computer on me Mr Gates.
Gates is 1,000 miles beyond worrying about his “paycheck”. You’re thinking in terms of how you and I regard money. Gates don’t give a fuck. He’s really wants to do the right thing and leave a solid legacy. Call him greedy, and he certainly was in the day, but he’s no longer concerned with personal enrichment.
That does NOT mean I agree with him, just saying he’s not thinking and acting as you and I would. Neither one of us are 70-yo (his bd is Tuesday, drop him a card) multi-billionaires with household names and vast influence.

Money is a drug, rich people if anything are more greedy for each dollar they get than poor people because their tolerance goes up and they need more and more power/money to still get high.
Any amount of money billionaires like Gates steals from workers has to be just the beginning or else his high will peak and then fall and billionaires will not accept a cold brush with reality/mortality like that.
There is a vital question coming up. When the machines do all the work, does that mean everyone eats? Or no one?
Right now it is “no one” roughly speaking. That must change. There is no future for anyone there, just nightmares unfolding and unfolding.
It‘s phrased „warns“ because it is just assumed that no one will eat. Because apparently that‘s a normal thing to assume in our society. That we‘ll all just starve to death soon.
I don‘t think we will but it‘s telling that a lot of rich and influential people do and are not only letting it happen but actively supporting it.
Because apparently that‘s a normal thing to assume in our society.
It’s just very difficult to think outside of society , to think of a working society without the organizing power of money and labor. And even more difficult to think about the path to get there.
…unless you have watched Star Trek and the like.
Well we are on our way to WW3 so perhaps we’ll get there.
The good news is that the guiding document for the AI robots will be called “How to Serve Man”. The bad news is it’s a cookbook. :)
Touche good sir! ))
Bill Gates is full of shit
Always has been *astronaut meme *
Bill Gates a lucky autismo with a privileged upbringing that never gets mentioned. If he knew what he was doing, be would have nuked davos and the G7 decades ago
It’s common knowledge that his parent’s wealth opened doors for him.
privileged upbringing that never gets mentioned
I think you’re 20 or 25 years out of date on that one.
More like 40
He also partied with Epstein.
No it won’t.
Race to retire in 5 years. Got it.
Don’t worry, he will be saying the opposite after he dumps whatever stock he’s trying to pump.
Where were you when the bubble burst, Bill?
Well, he too needs to stay relevant somehow. Making ragebait statements is one way.
Sure, pal
so he’s gonna give us money for free?
If this post has a score of -23, why is it in the top ten items I’m seeing on Lemmy?
Microsoft can’t even make a good operating system anymore. I don’t trust their ability to make an operating system work on a weekly basis.
1000000% correct
What’s that got to do with bill gates?
He’s still a huge influence on the company.
He used to be the CEO and M$ is pushing AI every way they can, regardless
He’s been out for years. While I can’t condone his methods in the late 90s (IE vs Netscape), he had nothing to do with the MSFT strategy in the current AI fad.
He hasnt been CEO for decades, but he was on the board up until 2020 when MS’s current AI strategy was being developed and executed. His current big push is energy projects, all intended as AI power sources, along with actual AI companies.
You’re conflating the two, but that’s exactly what he had to doggo with it. QED
I stopped to take a piss at an Arby’s once. Does that make me a cowboy?
howdy pardner
Gee, Mikey. I think he likes you
No, but if started, and owned Arby’s in a monopoly position for years, and then left… for many years, you’d be blamed for the state of the burger business. (Especially if you bother to comment on it, like Gates is doing)
