@Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @QasimRashid@mastodon.social Appreciate the understanding, I think a similar argument can made about AI right now despite all the backlash from various groups. I know this is a little off topic but if Elon would truly was all about digits he would be less ideological and out of the spotlight only focusing on boring investments. I just wish he did things that were a little less divisive.

@raz2701@mastodon.social @thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @QasimRashid@mastodon.social I think this a little too black-or-white. I completely understand the frustrations people have with the fact that rich people pay little to no taxes. However, a globalized market-driven world, which is inherently not a bad thing, allows for this to happen. A world where you can put your companies in tax havens and where you can work your money to optimize tax write offs, which exist for a reason

We stopped caring how music got made half a century ago. Synthesizers. Sampling. AI is just a new modulation of that. What matters is if people like it or not. And why do people like this? Because it has the human touch (etcetc whatever you want to call it)

People in their 20s hating on this are already boomers. Link to my video discussing how the discourse matters more than whether it's actually AI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ji33Hwwgjw&t=2s

@Landa@graz.social @QasimRashid@mastodon.social Yes? If medals and more money would create a million jobs over night, wouldn’t you take it? Wouldn’t those employees in turn pay taxes, too? If a trillionaire is unprecedented, why shouldn’t we figure out new unprecedented policy that boosts the economy that way?

@thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @QasimRashid@mastodon.social you guys don’t at all think this man genuinely wants to create products that improve society? Isn’t that the basis of his wealth? Asking genuinely, not baiting

@thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @QasimRashid@mastodon.social while everything you say may be true, doesn’t the market reward innovations because people actually use them?

@vpz@infosec.exchange @thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @QasimRashid@mastodon.social to his credit, he has mastered the animal spirits of the market. Aren’t those alternatives good for consumers? Why is it harmful that he provides alternatives

@vpz@infosec.exchange @thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @QasimRashid@mastodon.social sure

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social the trick is not to try and even out billionaires, they’re right when they say they can easily leave, this is the downside of globalization and free trade, the whole point of it is to allow for easier movement of capital and labor. Turns out that boosts the economy in multiple ways The trick is to incentivize billionaires, whether through policy or other means to reinvest their wealth into their companies, preferably manifesting itself in more jobs and labor opportunities

@Doug_Bostrom@scicomm.xyz @thief_of_fire@infosec.exchange @QasimRashid@mastodon.social Maybe. If so many people are angry with Elon, there are certainly ways we can improve the market to make people less disenchanted
