The cofounder of the $4.53 trillion AI chip giant says Americans should return to factory work—for their own prosperity and the country’s. Howard Lutnick claims technician roles can start at $90,000, no college degree required.
I remember telling people about UBI and the coming automation and the possibility of AI coming for a lot of jobs. I’ve been saying this kind of thing since early to mid-00s, if not the 90s. People looked at me like I was crazy, for the most part.
It’s not like I’m all that prescient or brilliant or anything…I just happen to read.
Even now, when it’s very obviously eating into jobs, there are lots of people still mostly following celebrity gossip and doing fantasy football picks or whatever and still seemingly oblivious…
UBI really needed to happen before AI and advanced robots. Really interested to see how China handles this.

Yup.
It’s always “No one could have predicted this.”
