Because we automatically compare the moon with objects on the horizon and they makes it look big in our mind, but if you objectively compare it to the entire sky it's small.

But you might get that opportunity to tear down the old system and start on the new one.

SAW style

So, their arms are stuck in a device that allows them to reach a keyboard. If they can get the AI to do a task correctly they're free, if not the device cuts of the arms.

It's why there's often a human in the loop who has to check the result of the AI and can be blamed if things go wrong. The poor sap can't possibly check and correct the volumes of slop produced so they're just there to work as a scapegoat.

Some CEO's thought they could save a bundle and were eager to replace workers. Other CEO's saw that, had to do a bunch of layoffs and knew saying "replaced with AI" instead of layoffs keeps stock prices high. Then you have a whole bunch of CEO's that thought the other guys must be on to something, think they're missing out and jump into AI both feet first. The laggards are bombarded with news and propaganda by the big players to get them pulled in too. So by now you get everybody messing around with AI in some fashion. That's the moment the tech giants put the squeeze on everybody.

It was just a research prototype. Marketeers saw it drew a crowd and and a few years later rich folks are betting the entire economy on this.

At this rate russia will be forced into a green energy revolution

My parents have trouble typing on their password. Try having them do anything more complex and they'll give up.
