AI Economics for Dummies
...We hope these examples help clarify the inner workings of AI economics. But if you’re still confused, all you really need to know is that everything is totally working and everyone is making a lot of money, and you should just stop asking questions, luddite.

Don't ask me how it got to AI thread. I chose an old thread.

Same thing happens if I try to reply to the Democrats thread.

Lloyds Banking Group to hire 300 tech experts to work on AI
...The bank said it intended the recruits to work on its use and development of agentic AI by September, referring to autonomous artificial intelligence models that can plan and execute tasks with minimal human oversight.

While the hiring drive is will increase Lloyds’ headcount for now, the group did not rule out its broad adoption of AI leading to job cuts in the future.

Trystan Davies, group head of data and AI science, said: “AI will reshape how organisations are structured. It will change roles and how we work, and we are investing in training for colleagues through that transition.”

In January, Nunn acknowledged that the bank would have to “reduce some jobs in some areas” owing to AI. Last month, Standard Chartered announced 7,000 job cuts, due in part to AI. Its chief executive, Bill Winters, later apologised for describing the move as “replacing, in some cases, lower-value human capital”...

define "lower value" human capital vs the "higher value" that AI is supposed to be bringing in and how that new value justifies getting rid of the humans? because, seriously, in banking and insurance, I could see a properly trained ai doing risk analysis and that kind of stuff, and hopefully assigning proper values to various factors and not forgetting any part of the picture, but for some reason, they are definitely not going to let the actuaries go...
