"doesn’t have a track record of not paying for shit he buys"

Hahaaha. A solid admission of being clueless.

Elon has a strong track record of doing shady stuff to get out of deals.

I think we are learning in real-time what intelligence re. humans is as we go along.

Humans only what they know, until they acquire more information about what's possible.

The goal post narrative is stupid to begin with.

"That means I have more quality time."

For now... the shareholders demand managers get the max out of every employee. Throw the force of competition etc into the mix and yeah labour isn't going to benefit all that much.

Efficiency and productivity in relation to final goods measured in GDP aren't the same thing.

Its yet to be determined just how 'efficient' people are with LLM's as its not really a one-person thing - the true measure is based on an entire collection of people's output.

Startups being rapidly efficient doesn't mean much in relation to the overall economy.
