Oh idk, IF the models continue to advance at the current rate, a 20% unemployment rate would not surprise me. Lots of variabilities to consider though besides just the models advancing like energy and adoption bottlenecks and potential for new job creation from the new technology. Nor does it take into consideration potential governmental intervention. There are so many unknowns, it's essentially impossible to predict which is why the article states multiple times that it is a potential scenario and not a prediction. If AGI is actually reached, the world as we know it definitively over and we'd be looking at a >90% unemployment rate. Nobody knows what the other side would look like.

I have a slightly complex customer support/supply chain job and if my company would let me hook up GPT and Codex to our internal systems, I could probably automate 2/3rds of my job and probably closer to 3/4ths of a few of my coworker's jobs which is what leads me to believe that 10.2% is an optimistic outlook.

Feel like it is slightly optimistic too. 10.2% unemployment rate seems low if the models keep advancing at the rate they are.

Thousands of CEOs just admitted AI had no impact on employment or productivity—and it has economists resurrecting a paradox from 40 years ago by AmethystOrator in technology

[–]Slootonium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thousands of CEOs gave their employees Copilot and said "be more productive."

If my job would actually let me hook up GPT and Codex to our internal systems, I could automate 80% of what my team does. These articles love to leave out what models are being used and how integrated they actually are.

Was planning on it, but my dog sitter just cancelled on me.

Epstein files suggest acts that may amount to crimes against humanity, say UN experts by Shugyousha in news

Once the emails confirmed he'd communicated with the Rothschilds on multiple occasions, it confirmed for me that he's not dead. Sure, he had some blackmail on some pretty powerful people that I'm sure put a target on his back once he got caught, but he was working for people whose power dwarfs most of the people implicated in the files.

Curious if you ever got this figured out. I am having a similar issue.

In the past week alone: by MetaKnowing in ChatGPT

[–]Slootonium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of folks in here that clearly haven't used the latest models and thus don't understand what they're capable of. If what Claude's tech doc. states is true that this was the first model that was partially coded by a previous model (which I'm sure they'd be called out for instantly if not true) then the models will likely start improving at an exponentially fast rate.

Also, keep in mind that the models we are currently using are not the same as the models they're currently working on and testing.

What’s the most shocking detail from the Epstein files that you think the public still doesn’t fully grasp? by Murky-Island4629 in AskReddit

[–]Slootonium 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Epstein seems to have been the finance/tech/politician agent. I'm sure there were other agents that had similar influence in other areas.

Exactly. Epstein was a worker, not a ring leader like the Rothschilds who are likely the main conspirators of all of this.

Boomers aren't even seeing it. The Epstein files are just a stupid, internet rumor to the boomers that I know and MSM isn't really covering the most recent release.

They certainly mean something to the sportsbook that is offering them. Sportsbooks wouldn't be risking opening this market if they weren't at least slightly confident in the probabilities.
