Jeff Bezos plays down AI dangers and says a trillion humans could live in huge cylindrical space stations::The billionaire said people living in space could visit Earth on vacation.
Sorry, Earth is only for billionaires now. Proles get to live in space tubes.
Which is literally what Bezos wants. He wants to move “heavy industry” into space to “save earth”. He’d rather spend his money flying the poor’s into space to work and die than on anything that could save earth for everyone.
EAT! THE! MOTHER FUCKING! RICH! Before they sacrifice Earth.
Literally trying to create the Belters from The Expanse lol
If this is the case wheres the next season bezos? WHERE NEXT SEASON?
This motherfucker mailed me the same blu-ray box set smashed to shards twice in a row before he finally put the third copy into some goddamn bubble wrap, and he wants me to trust his space station with my life!?
I like how they believe in these systems working yet the couldn’t handle the fact that many jobs can be done remotely…
You will commute from your home space cylinder complex to the office cubicle space cylinder complex. There is no other way the system works.
Oh no
Yeah no way these space tubes will eventually be used as an object to throw at Jaburo.
Or Dublin.
“Go slave your life away in my terrible space cans.”
Ignore wealth inequality, huff my farts. —Bezos
I would love to see a trillion humans living in the solar system. If we had a trillion humans, we would have, at any given time, 1,000 Mozarts and 1,000 Einsteins.
So if one in a billion people are an Einstein or Mozart, does that mean there are 8 Mozarts and 8 Einsteins alive in the world right now? I wonder who would make the list?
There’s probably much more. Half of them only recognised in their village somewhere in the middle of South Asia, the other half too burnt out with work and continuous crises to notice they could be good at something.
I think that today’s world makes it harder to stand out as a genius, even with more opportunity. Most modern composers with any public name recognition are movie composers, like Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, and John Williams. Absolutely incredible scores without their movies, but are any Mozart level? I bet the Mozart level ones are probably well known in the orchestral world, but none of them are probably very well known outside of it.
And as far as scientists and mathematics, those roles have been pretty much entirely commercialized and corporatized. Even stuff for the public good is largely funded through grants and private investors, so the geniuses are always beholden to others who will take the real credit.
All of the recognized “geniuses” that I can think of are business-savvy grifters like musk and bozos and Zuck, all riding the coattails of the real innovators. Plus, these three specifically, if you look at their vanity projects and shit, they’re all pretty insane.
Artists generally go where the money is.
Mozart would be scoring movies because that’s where all the commissions are.
I prefer to go to Risa
Jamaharon == snu snu ?
No shit, Bezos. Did you just pick up a magazine from the 1980s with one of McCall’s paintings in it? We’ve been dreaming of cylindrical space stations for decades.
Not going to read the article, because it’s bull, the only way humanity gets there are for mentally impaired people like him stop hoarding wealth. I’m sure if we totaled up everything spent on yachts and gave it to nasa, or some other public space entity, I would be typing this in one of those tubes.
I guess this is supposed to be the 99.9%’s last sacrifice to our 0.1% overlords before the world boils away? “Many of you will die making my space tube, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make. I also need 72 virgins for repopulation purposes.”
so, is he, like, into ayhuasca now?
Wouldn’t put it past bezos for being responsible for the megastructure
Sooo why would shareholders want to spend any potential profit on just having humans?
What value do they bring?
This is why we can’t have nice things!
Okay, so the the Cylindrical Space Stations actually are a viable Method of living in space. However, I think people are less worried about AI as they should be.
How are you supposed to have agriculture in a giant tin can in space?
On the interior surface of the can. The can is big enough to have a functional gradient for things like agriculture.
More like Jeff Bozos, am I right?
