“Work 50% longer weeks so you can make something that’ll both make me richer AND cost you your jobs!” is not the motivational speech he thinks it is.
Wait, are these AI boosters bragging about how close they are to building God the torture that Roko’s Basilisk is inflicting on us all?
To be fair, you’re only going to be tortured if you don’t help out like good old Sergey here.
I don’t even know what AGI is, and I read the headline as “rich disconnected from reality asshole”.
Turns out I was right.
A General ignoramus
Dude who’s done nothing of importance since bouncing off google throwing words like that 😄
Or if you hire more personnel. Overtime work is more expensive anyway.
Btw, the overwhelmingly positive field study in the UK over the 4-day week…
no no, he means free overtime. Like a reverse “20% policy”
“We only pay for four days and you work the remaining on your free time.”
In the US, salaried engineers are exempt from overtime pay regulations. He is telling them to work 20 extra hours, with no extra pay.
Vs. 1 day less work with the same pay being more productive. But it’s not about work-live-balance or productivity.
Or you could hire 50% more employees for the holy grail of having more wealth than any other company ever after this program.
But even for something this big (that, incidentally will end humanity) they are too scrooge to even pay their employees a normal wage for normal hours
Fuck these assholes, burn in hell
It is also absolutely 100% BS investor-bait. At this point it should be obvious that we have reached just about the peak of what LLMs can do. And it’s notably not Google’s Gemini even - other models are generally better. For AGI to be feasible, there should be a paradigm shift, which is not a function of more work hours.
Sounds like we don’t need it then.
maybe ai should work that extra time.
A liar, scam artist, and scumbag.
This is almost too depressing to be funny.
You know it’s bad when I had to click all the way through to the body of the article to verify this isn’t a The Onion thing. Do we still have a “Not The Onion” space here?
Yeah, over at !nottheonion@lemmy.world
I thought Googlers were paid $500K+ and already worked 60-80 hours weeks?
Real AGI is a Guillotine that only removes the heads of dragons.
I don’t get it.
Are you perhaps calling all of humanity a dragon?
Billionaires are often referred to as dragons because they horde wealth. A Guillotine that could know the difference and decide to only harm billionaires would be a technological marvel.
That’s obviously not how the billionaires who create it would train it.
That’s why I bake my cake at 2608°C for ~1,8 minutes, it just works™
You can’t produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant.
Project Manager here, and where I’m from it’s common knowledge that 9 women can have a baby in a month .
Or!—hear me out—one woman whose 8 co-gestators were just laid off by someone who doesn’t understand what their job was
And an eager young bride can do in 7 months what takes 9 for cows and countesses.
Burnt crust full of liquid cake. yum!
Cake brulee
I hope they tell him to get fucked.
I’m pretty sure the science says it’s more like 20-30. I know personally, if I try to work more than about 40-ish hours in a week, the time comes out of the following week without me even trying. A task that took two hours in a 45-hour “crunch” week will end up taking three when I don’t have to crunch. And if I keep up the crunch for too long, I start making a lot of mistakes.
lmao, what a tool
