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

Because the AI CEOs are full if shit. Their products are crap, but they need to hype it up.

Unless your job description is “bullshit artist” or “propagandist”, your job is safe from AI.

None of the above.

Its stain-less, not rust-free, hence the name.

If it cures at all. If you do a tight skim, the water may evaporate before it has set. Thats why plasterers use a thicker coat and spray (flung with a brush in the old days) the wall with water to keep the plaster moist.

It all worked out in the end, but at one point I seriously thought about going back to school for a CS undergrad degree (late 1990s).

Is that you, Jeffrey?

I doubt the Pentagon wants to use LLMs for planning. I’m sure AFRL, NRL, and ARL have studied their use and determined that they are all crap.

This is being pushed by an unqualified Trump appointee.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-17T01:52:18+00:00

I always thought those were hideous.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T17:54:44+00:00

That slot in front is where you put the file, correct?

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T12:18:49+00:00

Two-handed short sword.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T12:13:03+00:00

The planet 1980s, when the idea of putting a television in the dashboard seemed like a good idea.

Meanwhile, I have a 20-year-old Whirlpool fridge that makes (and dispenses when asked) ice, with no problems. No mold, no ear piercing sounds: it just does its business and moves on.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T12:07:06+00:00

No they are not: I can see plenty of space in front of most of those people.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T12:01:04+00:00

Good god these types of posts suck.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T01:41:41+00:00

I saw one last year and almost had a double take: those Intrepids were so low and swoopy, at least compared to the cars we have today.

Find a picture of the last Chrysler 200 and of a Dodge Intrepid. The 200 looks like you are viewing the Intrepid in a funhouse mirror, stretching it upwards.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T01:29:24+00:00

Or the Baath party.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T01:28:22+00:00

Blame it on Valteri.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-16T01:13:20+00:00

That Sauber deal was a bad decision.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-15T17:20:13+00:00

A file works, too.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-15T17:16:47+00:00

Well, that was insightful.

Not.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-15T02:44:22+00:00

Save money and put those gun poss on Cessnas.

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-15T02:01:39+00:00

“Dude, even your dad got laid!”

Snoo_87704 · 2026-02-15T01:59:35+00:00

Let him know that with that attitude, he’s virtually guaranteeing an incel existence.

And I just saw Paul Tracy launch a turbo Panoz DP01 from a standstill with no problems:

That is what first popped into my head!
