He also thinks there are one billion people on earth total. So between that and the invention of cars being in his memory, I think we can place him solidly in the mid 1800’s?

Wait…maybe AI isn’t wrong all the time. Maybe it was just programmed by CEOs that are wrong all the time!

That’s why CEOs think it’s right all the time and so dangerous. Be cause they’re deluded morons who don’t know it’s wrong.

I just took that statement to be a mask off moment where he reveals just how little he thinks of most humans. He can’t really be stupid enough to think there are only one billion humans on the planet?

A billion who matter maybe. Then the other 7 are just … there, sort of

Yea. I am inclined to read it as him just seeing people who can afford Nvidia products count towards being human.

Was this in the article or is this something he said elsewhere?
Carnelian@lemmy.world 1 day ago
It was tucked into a recent speech. I watched a timestamped linked. He really said it and it really sounded like he meant the sum of all people.
Defenders say that he was implicitly referring to people who are “computer users” or would be engaging with his company’s products or whatever. If true, I don’t know if that’s better lol
