Raw LLM Responses

This is long, but it addresses a common concern that I see A LOT of in the comments. And that is "if everyone is unemployed no one can buy the products." This is an often repeated comment, but it's untrue. And every single ounce of data proves it's untrue. It FEELS like it would be real, but it isn't, and literally never is. I'll explain (if anyone cares). 1) Lets start at the basics. There is so much more money out there than people think. I'm not joking. Too many people (mostly young) have this fantasy that the US (and the world at large) is made up of billionaires and poor people. And that is just simply not true. A LOT of us (yes, I'm one) have the money to survive the rest of our lives without working. And there isn't thousands of us, or even millions. There are HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of us around the world. And we're unlikely to ever become poor because we're investing in the very companies that are making the profits which keep us rich. I saw a report recently that Uber has gotten a lot more expensive than taxis, and it's priced out people who used to take them to save money. Yeah, that's by design. Uber makes far FAR more money off me at a $80 price point, than it does off someone else at a $20 price point. I casually replace 4 people with what I'm willing to spend on an Uber. So in conclusion of this point, we can keep companies afloat at a higher price point rather than appealing to everyone. 2) We still need humans, and the value of their work increases. Being a farrier in 1900 was a minimum wage worker. Today, they are prized and make a ton of money. Why? Because there are fewer farriers. And only the rich have horses that need these workers. The same will always be true. There will be less workers, which raises the value of the survivors. Those people will have more money and those people will buy MORE (thus replacing the unemployed who are no longer buying). 3) Ai creates new jobs. I work in AI, I develop models and build usage criteria. That job literally didn't exist 10 years ago (not really anyway). A whole new C-Suite has opened up in the last 10 years. A CAIO (Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer). They usually report right into the CEO and are peers with the CTO, CIO, CRO, etc. Robotics companies are being started at a voracious rate, and they all use humans. Those companies didn't exist 10 years ago. New jobs will literally be invented because they are needed. A coders and middle mangers going away? Yes. Not tomorrow, but yes. But replacing them will be a whole new class of workers. After all, the car put a lot of horse workers out of business, but it created car mechanics. A job no one could have predicted beforehand. 4) And finally the reality. Money isn't real. And I don't mean that in a conspiratorial sense. I mean, money is infinite. Literally... infinite. There's an infinite amount of money in the world. Infinite. Money can't be represented by a pie chart, because a pie chart is finite. And to anyone who says "nuh uh! I just googled how much money was in the world and it's not infinite!" all I'll say is, ok, now google that same query in 3 months, then 6, then 12, then 24, then 100 months. And the number will keep increasing. Why? Because it's infinite. So my point is, if money is needed to be given for free to the unemployed (basically, UBI) then they'll do it. But realize, it'll be juuuuuust enough to afford a new iPhone every year, your allotment of government cheese, and a government approved tiny apartment. Effectively, you'll be given enough to buy the new sneakers, and some clothes and such. So the profits will keep coming, don't worry.
