Open original source ↗The empirical scorecard on AI thus far is very positive:
1) increases US GDP by 25-50%
2) is expanding our collective knowledge of science, math and physics
3) is up-leveling labor
Related to (3) above, this announcement from Meta is really amazing. If they can take a US median income worker ($50k), train them and then place them into a $100k+ job it’s transformational.
If done at scale, across all of the planned AI infrastructure buildout in America, this is upwards of 1MM jobs.
Doubling the median income of 1MM Americans is nothing short of an economic miracle.
Let’s hope more companies follow suit and this becomes a defacto part of America’s industrial policy.
