During an interview on Fox News, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent agreed with X owner Elon Musk’s claim that Americans in the near future won’t need to save for retirement thanks to the rapid growth of artificial intelligence.
MAGA Republican President Donald Trump’s Treasury Secretary, multimillionaire Scott Bessent, decided to parrot the predictions of trillionaire Elon Musk about the future finances of average Americans.
In an interview with fellow Trump sycophant and Fox News personality Sean Hannity, the host asked Bessent about the claims Musk made about artificial intelligence. Hannity said Musk claimed in the near future, Americans wouldn’t need to save for their retirement because of the “abundance” AI will create.
listen i know you took the article name verbatim… but at no point, and i mean at no point was he “ripped” over anything. someone agreeing with everything you said is not ripping someone… i don’t know what ripping someone would entail exactly, but it aint it.
That is because all the data centres consuming all the electricity and water to generate heat and will make the world unliveable for humans.
We won’t survive to retirement!
im sorry. im sorry. I meant to say americans soon won’t have retirments thanks to ai.
In other words, spend your money now, peons, to top up our bank accounts so we can pay to replace, repress and marginalize you. Then we won’t have to worry about you or your retirement.
Sure AI and robots could take over manufacturing, but it doesn’t make abundance magically. Resources are still finite, power generation to build abundance is still a problem. They are just talking nonsense to send share prices up.
Sure AI and robots could take over manufacturing, but it doesn’t make abundance magically.
And even if it did , the owners of those AI operated factories aren’t going to voluntarily share that abundance with the general population.
Yeah we’d have to move to citizen owns manufacturing, and can’t see the current capitalists giving up their stake
