Last year the same labs, politicians, NGOs, and media outlets now pushing the extinction hoax were running a full-scale campaign that AI would cause a jobs apocalypse. We were told it would be a “white-collar bloodbath,” 10–20% unemployment, half of entry-level jobs gone. Obama amplified it. Over a year later: unemployment at 4.1%. No economy-wide displacement. A million new jobs created by AI, says The Economist. Anthropic’s own chief economist says the data looks like skill augmentation, not job destruction. So, any admission by the doomer labs, politicians, and NGOs that they were wrong? Any humility about scaring the public with wild extrapolations dressed up as forecasts? Nope. They just move on to the next hoax, with the same false certitude and fake precision.
🚨 Anthropic Chief Economist Peter McCrory Says AI Job Loss Predictions Are Not Panning Out “What I see in our data is that [AI] looks more like a skill-biased labor augmenting technology than a technology that outright automates and displaces displaces jobs wholesale … Based on the Department of Labor's taxonomy … there's no job where every single task is being automated by Claude.”

The way to win at capitalism is to focus on what it actually does (make customers' lives better) rather than the socialist caricature of it (squeeze every penny out of them). The latter gets you 2x returns at best, whereas making new things for people can get you 10x.

Peter Thiel on the rarity of courage: "Brilliant thinking is rare, but courage is in even shorter supply than genius. The most contrarian thing of all is not to oppose the crowd, but to think for yourself."

Skyroot has made me optimistic again about the deep tech future of the country. This is the time for youngsters in India to build GPU chips, Quantum computers, Fusion reactors, Humanoids and build the future of India. I have no doubt this will be the biggest economic driver of 21st century @PawanKChandana @bharathdaka @AshwiniVaishnaw @karandi65 @neelkanthmishra

Why does a country that gave the world the concept of zero now invest so little in creating new knowledge? There is no shortage of explanations. Chief Economic Adviser V. Anantha Nageswaran has pointed to colonial deindustrialization, decades of protectionism, premature financialization and policy uncertainty. Industrialist Naushad Forbes argues the deeper problem is insufficient competition, which has reduced the pressure on companies to innovate. Ajai Chowdhry, co-founder of HCL Infosystems, tells me it’s because India has failed to become a product nation. “When you design and make products in India, that’s when you will see R&D happen. In service businesses, people don’t invest in deep research,” said Chowdhry, who now serves as chairman of the National Quantum Mission.
