Neural Dispatch: Decoding Adobe Premiere for iPhone, defining real Jobs, and cost of ‘free’ AI
Cognitive warmup. The man many credit as the one leading the AI revolution (I certainly don’t; will refrain from getting started on that), Sam Altman, said recently that if AI wipes out some jobs, maybe they weren’t even “real jobs” to begin with. Who is Altman talking about? Law enforcement? Medical professionals? Lawyers and legal experts? Journalists? Creative professionals? The mail man? I am sure the CEO and their chosen favourites will be safe from the mass AI experiments that enterprises worldwide are slowly burning their fingers with. This is the same Sam Altman, who in a recent podcast was asked about how his $13 billion not-for-profit can support a claimed $1.4 trillion of spend commitments, and he went on the defensive, blaming some non-existent short sellers. Mind you, an OpenAI IPO has been speculated for a while. What if tomorrow AI decided Sam Altman was redundant? It must be peaceful in the Altman-reality.
