  You say i vestors will back away and the bubble will burst, but I say the investors are governments themselves, therefore, they have all the money and power there is. The bubble will burst in some sense, but this is larger than simple consumer product markets.

  This is a weapon. One of the greatest tools for governments and those on power to dictate and control.

  Wait till they ruin the internet, make users unable of any meaningful general purpose computation on their own hardware, then everybody has to beg them for computing and knowledge.

  this is bigger than a few AI companies. This is the scheme of global governments moving towards full totalitarianism and control.

  Call me paranoid but I highly believe this is the route we’re at.

  Dude I hate meta and zuckerberg religiously but all of these points seemed like making a fuss about nothing to make profit. Most things here seemed pretty normal and expected for a company that big and it’s CEO.

  Now I’m speculating if all of this book and suing it’s writer is a psyops by meta to say “these are the worst things that they could come up with. These are as bad as it gets”
