If I were making tons of cash on AI speculation I would say that, too. Doesn't make it accurate. Facts tell a different story.

One thing that's become very clear is that all these billionaires are not smart people. Most of them were born on 3rd base or just got lucky.
But their are not wise or worth listening to.
In fact most of them are just shitty dumb pieces of shit psychopaths
The psychopath (at the bare minimum sociopath) part is important. You can't get there without dehumanising your workers.
Ooh also don't forget the wealthy connections you can make from being a pedophile.
Imagine that! All the billionaires defending each other. Go figure!
It’s like they have some sort of solidarity. One based on their class. Seems like an idea that could greatly benefit them.

Being completely wrong on all topics is an accomplishment on its own.
It takes dedication and really going the extra mile to be so diabolically shitty.

Mark my words, Jeff is positioning himself to eventually run for president.
He does check all the boxes for the American electorate
✅ Self interested - “A success story!”
✅ Blames poor people for their poverty - “Why don’t you just work harder?”
✅ Avoids paying taxes - “When I’m a billionaire, I won’t want to pay either!”
✅ Does not understand that revenue from tax dollars should be used to support social programs and government services that are not specifically profit generating (food programs, emergency preparedness, environmental conservation, mail to remote areas, etc) - “The government should be run like a business”
It’s the next cosplay for the billionaire class
Make the guillotine great again
Unrelatable dickhead expresses an opinion, promptly ignored.
More like makes me fantasize about using his chrome dome to set an Amazon data center on fire like burning ants with a magnifying glass
Sadly the inescapable physical truth of convex vs concave lensing still relentlessly holds its tenacious grip on reality, despite the billions of dollars these folks have accumulated they have still, thus far, been unable to alter that particular aspect of reality.
The only solution I can offer for Jeff Bezos is to begin forming his skull inwards somewhat so that any captured light can reach a proper focusing point. As as astronomer with some experience with such reflective optical surfaces, I'd be happy to begin the grinding and polishing process for you at any time, I'll just need you to hold him still while I work. It's a very precise process.
I assume his head is mostly thick skull surrounding empty space anyway, so I think there should be little harm done.

Well what did you expect, him to come out and say "yes, billionaires are detrimental to society"?
The police investigated themselves and found nothing wrong.
Hey a rich out of touch asshole who has nothing in common with his fellow man has an opinion about something!
I bet he knows what he's talking about!

These billionaire ghouls just don't know when to stfu
I honestly cannot imagine being THAT rich, being able to do anything, and still being such a massive piece of shit
You don't get to be that rich without being a massive piece of shit.
Exactly. Average asshole gets a billion, they get a financial advisor, let their money turn into generational wealth with investments, and donate to charity while living in a big mansion.
The billionaires we have are more of mentally sick wannabe dragons, the horde will never be big enough to satisfy them.

Nothing will change until they fear for their lives.
Just wanted to throw down the reminder that health insurance companies, for a brief moment, didn't deny nearly as many claims.
Sometimes violence is the answer.

Fear isn't enough. The whole billionaire class should be culled from society.

Oh, so the cartoonishly evil CEO said the evil rogues gallery of CEOs isn't evil? It's also so funny how he could say "no, young worker's jobs aren't in that much danger." Then mark fuckerberg goes on stage saying how many people he's replaced with ai. Wholly shit its impossible.
Borrowed $250k ($550k in today's money) from his family to start Amazon, has so much money now that money has ceased to have meaning. This asshole has never lived a normal life and yet he thinks he knows what kind of problems people are facing today.

Strange how a man who stands to make billions more from this, thinks all those opposed to it are wrong.
Guessing it’s due to his vast and deep knowledge of the subject, after long and careful scientific and sociologic research.
"Billionaire with vested interest in AI &Trump says there's no problems with billionares, AI & Trump"
Why the fuck even ask him?

I am starting to downvote these posts. I know what an asshole like Bezos would say if asked, then a good-for-nothing tech press guy asks AND you give him a platform on Lemmy.
There is no valuable analysis or any collateral reporting that makes this other than self-inflicted propaganda.

These creatures can't even figure out how to cosplay as fully formed human beings.
“The top 1% of taxpayers pay about 40% of all the tax revenue, and the bottom half pay 3%,” Bezos said. “I don’t think it should be 3%. I think it should be zero.”
“People sometimes say that, you know, I don’t pay taxes. Not true. I pay billions of dollars in taxes,”
“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”
WT-absolute-F? I think he got oxygen-deprived in space.
