Nothing to support it? I specifically mentioned several fields in which AI is already better than highly educated labor. The qualifications for being a geologist capable of finding new oil reserves is a PHD, the highest level of education that very few laborers ever reach. AI is already better at doing their jobs than they are. That's what was funded first, and now the funding is on mainstream applications, it just hasn't caught up yet.

No, you didn't, I did, and you responded to me ignoring that. That's the context of what I said that you responded to.

Sorry that I'm not historically illiterate I guess.

And humans can't be fed the wrong data that they confidently repeat as fact?...

I think I understand it just fine given that my original claim was about it being smart enough to replace our intellectual labor, which you've now agreed to, and not that it was either self learning or perfect.

It's not comparable though. Technology before now only replaced physical power, something humans never had in spades anyway.

Now, AI is poised to surpass our intellectual power, which is our strongest evolutionary tool. Unless we drastically redistribute the gains from AI in a way that the global right would absolutely revolt against, AI is guaranteed to lead to widespread unemployment and poverty the likes of which will make the great depression look tame.

As someone going for the next round of licenses... Two things I will say.

A.) Real estate is expensive, as are regulations. NY has done a really fantastic job at doing the right thing and making sure people don't skimp on stuff, but that also adds costs.

B.) Don't worry, this won't last. It's industry standard for prices to be high the first 1-3 years of a legal market before investors get their money out and wholesale prices come down.
