Like the Luddites of two centuries ago, pundits tell us to fear AI because it might put people out of work and create mass unemployment. But AI is not a threat to our jobs, unlike the regulation the government unleashes ostensibly to control AI.

    Broadly he’s not wrong. A lot of proposed regulations will strengthen incumbent companies, especially in the short term.

    But I also still think AI is a bubble. Lobbying is the only thing keeping it afloat and it’s yet to show concrete returns outside of the narrow areas that AI is actually good at.

    I think the future of AI is still pattern recognition and discreet neural nets performing specific tasks. I think LLMs are a dead end.
