/forum/non-technical-forums/rants-raves-and-everything-else/1633106-ai-ceo-says-technology-‘moving-very-quickly-’-could-soon-replace-more-jobs
Thu, 18 Sep 2025 01:05:42 GMTAnthropic CEO Dario Amodei doubled down on his warning that artificial intelligence could soon cause mass unemployment, even as the technology’s...
Amodei, who runs one of the world’s leading AI labs, warned that the technology is advancing “very quickly” and has already begun replacing jobs at Axios’ AI+ DC Summit on Wednesday.
“This is already happening,” Amodei said.
Amodei’s comments come as recent data points to a labor market that is weakening quicker than expected. The unemployment rate hit a three-year high last month, and the economy is adding relatively few jobs compared to recent years. It is unclear whether the labor market slowdown is related to AI technology, though.
In many cases, AI remains more about its promise than its current returns. Apple, for example, found that an AI-powered Siri assistant wasn’t up to its quality standards, and in several cases, the use of AI chatbots has been linked to mental health spirals.
This isn’t the first time Amodei has sounded the alarm about AI’s potential to wipe out jobs. In May, Amodei warned that the AI tools that Anthropic and other companies are racing to build could eliminate half of entry-level, white-collar jobs and boostunemployment to as much as 20% in the next one to five years.
“When an exponential is moving very quickly, you can’t be sure. This could happen faster than I imagine, this could happen slower than I imagine, or something very different could happen,” Amodei said on Wednesday.
“But I think it is likely enough to happen that we felt that there was a need to warn the world about it,” he added.
?
Amodei also suggested the government may need to step in and support people in adapting to the AI revolution, perhaps by taxing AI companies’ gains.
Some critics have suggested that Amodei’s repeated warnings sometimes serve more to burnish his image as a responsible leader in the field or to elevate his technology’s market position.
But Amodei argued on Wednesdaythat many people are underestimating AI.
“I think there’s a little disconnect here, where people will sometimes say, ‘Oh, you’re worried about what AI is going to do to jobs, but AI can’t do this, AI can’t do that,’” he said. “Well, we’re talking about today’s AI. The technology is moving quickly.”

Wed, 10 Sep 2025 16:38:35 GMTAmerican farmers are currently facing significant economic struggles in 2025, marked by rising debt, falling crop prices, labor shortages, and...
Farm sector debt is projected to reach a record $561.8 billion in 2025, up 3.7% from 2024, driven by increased lending to small- and mid-sized farms.
Chapter 12 bankruptcy filings for family farmers nearly doubled in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the previous year, signaling growing financial distress.
Farmers are routinely selling crops for less than the cost of production due to low commodity prices, which have fallen to their lowest levels since 2020, while input costs for fuel, fertilizer, seeds, and labor remain at historic highs.
Trade policies, including tariffs under the Trump administration, have reduced foreign demand—particularly from China and Mexico—further depressing prices for soybeans, corn, and wheat.
Additionally, a labor shortfall exceeding 400,000 jobs is threatening harvests, exacerbated by immigration enforcement actions and regulatory changes affecting the H-2A visa program.
The outcome of this crisis could be widespread farm closures and the loss of family farms, particularly among small and independent operators.
There are growing fears that without structural policy changes, the U.S. could face the extinction of the family farm, leading to the economic and social decline of rural communities.
Consumers may also face consequences, including higher food prices, reduced grocery store choices, and a weakened domestic food supply that increases reliance on imports.
While recent legislation like the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" provides $66.4 billion in subsidies over ten years, critics argue that benefits are unevenly distributed and fail to address root causes like trade instability, climate impacts, and corporate consolidation in agriculture.]]>Rants, Raves, and Everything Elsecopiertec/forum/non-technical-forums/rants-raves-and-everything-else/1632156-american-farmers-will-they-financially-survive-2025-and-beyond<![CDATA[Republicans are 'leading us' to a shutdown]]>

The Republicans have the White House, the Senate and Congress. They have been in control since Trump took power. If the US gov't is heading fo a shutdown, this is because this is where the Republicans are leading the nation to.
Everywhere US citizens look prices are dramatically rising for food, energy, healthcare, housing , edication & childcare. Trump promised to lower prices on Day One but the "big ugly bill" and tariffs have made everything worse for the average US citizen.
Trump talks about using a rarely used legislative tool called a pocket recission which even some Republicans call unconstitutional.]]>Rants, Raves, and Everything ElseSalesServiceGuy/forum/non-technical-forums/rants-raves-and-everything-else/1632063-republicans-are-leading-us-to-a-shutdownIs Trump going to stink up the US Open mens tennis final tomorrow?

Several notable US Open spectators, including Stephen Colbert, have spoken out against Trump
Spanish tennis pro and world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz called it a "privilege" to play in front of a sitting United States president as President Donald Trump is set to attend the men’s singles final of the U.S. Open on Sunday.
But Trump’s attendance at the marquee event contrasts with the usual guest list of the popular New York tournament, which this year has seen an overwhelming majority of Hollywood elites flock to the stands.
Seven-time Olympic gold medalist and American gymnastics icon Simone Biles attended Coco Gauff’s second-round victory last week. Her appearance came months after she caught fierce backlash on social media for sparring with OutKick host Riley Gaines over transgender athletes competing in girls and women’s sports.
Gaines, a staunch advocate for women’s rights, called out a Minnesota high school whose softball team won a state championship in June with a transgender pitcher rostered on the team.
?
Late-night host Stephen Colbert was also in attendance last week. Similar to Baldwin, he took aim at the president this week after Trump said Chicago was the "worst and most dangerous city" on social media.
"Yesterday, Donald Trump made a hard right onto the fascism freeway, announcing that he will deploy National Guard troops to Chicago," Colbert said during his monologue. "Worst and most dangerous? Two words: "F--- you!" Colbert said after reading Trump's post.
Colbert also told Trump "go f--- yourself" in July after the president celebrated the cancellation of the comedian's show.
Shonda Rhimes, who created popular television series such as "Scandal" and "Grey's Anatomy," was also in attendance. She reportedly cut ties with the Kennedy Center earlier this year after Trump was named chairman of the performing arts center in Washington, D.C.
?
USTA Director of International Development Amanda Wight is tasked with the responsibility of deciding which A-listers get an invitation to the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens.
"Every agent under the sun has my number," Wight told The New York Times. "Arguably, the celebrity program is our biggest marketing tool."
According to the report, a celebrity's status is leverage for promoting the sport and the event. USTA hired a communications and consulting firm to help in those efforts.
"They track every person that comes on site," Wight told the Times. "What they are posting, who they are tagging, who they are coming with. Then we are able to get a value of what the program is worth to us."
According to the Wight, the men’s final is the most sought-after ticket. And this year, President Trump will be there for it.
The USTA confirmed to The Associated Press that the president will be in attendance as a client guest but did not identify who he would be a guest of. Trump has previously attended the tournament in years past.
?
In a statement to Fox News Digital regarding the criteria for invitations, a USTA spokesperson said, "Regardless of political affiliation, the USTA does not invite any New York city or state politicians unless they have a formal role at the event (in prior years the mayor greeted the crowd on opening night).
"As federal employees are limited in what they can accept, we offer those who ask the opportunity to purchase tickets. Additionally, individuals may be the invited guests of someone else (sponsors, seat holders, etc), over which we have no control."
The men’s final between Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will begin Sunday at 2 p.m. ET.
"It is a privilege for the tournaments having the presidents from every country [there] to support the tournaments, to support tennis and to support the match," Alcaraz said of playing in front of Trump. "To be honest, I will try not to be focused, and I will try not to think about it. I don’t want myself to be nervous because of it.
"I think attending the tennis match, I think it's great for tennis to have the president into the final."

President reveals southern Caribbean operation against Venezuelan vessel 'moments ago' during Oval Office news
During a news conference in the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced the U.S. military "shot out" a drug boat from Venezuela in the southern Caribbean.
"Over the last few minutes, [we] literally shot out a boat, a drug-carrying boat," Trump said during the news conference. "A lot of drugs in that boat. And you'll be seeing that, and you'll be reading about that. It just happened moments ago."
?Secretary of State Marco Rubio later posted to X sharing additional details, noting the hit was a "lethal strike."
"As @potus just announced moments ago, today the U.S. military conducted a lethal strike in the southern Caribbean against a drug vessel which had departed from Venezuela," Rubio wrote in the post.
A senior defense official told Fox News the attack was a "precision strike."

A favorite resort of the foreign residents of Yokohama during the summer months is the island of Enoshima. It is about twenty miles away, and is a noted place of pilgrimage for the Japanese, on account of certain shrines that are reputed to have a sacred character. Doctor Bronson arranged that his party should pay a visit to this island, as it was an interesting spot, and they could have a glimpse of Japanese life in the rural districts, and among the fishermen of the coast. "But as we are in for it," he continued, "we must make the best of the situation, and hope to go through in safety. Many a strong ship lies at the bottom of the sea, where she was sent by just such a storm as we are about to pass through, and many another has barely escaped. I was once on a ship in the China seas, when the captain told the passengers that it would be a miracle if we remained half an hour longer afloat. But hardly had he done speaking when the wind fell, the storm abated, and we were safe. The typhoon is to these waters what the hurricane is to the West Indies; it is liable to blow at any time between April and September, and is often fearfully destructive. OPIUM-PIPE. OPIUM-PIPE. "Surely your ladyship knows Dr. Bruce!" Hetty said with a vivid splash of colour on either cheek "A little time ago I understood that Dr. Bruce----" "I require that everywhere a strict investigation shall take place into the conduct of the soldiers with regard to the life and property of the civilian population. "Where were they buried?" They all pressed forward. "Count out. That's the only fair way," shouted the boys in the center. "Now, there's three loaves o' bread for the Sargint," said Harry, laying them down on a newspaper. "There's three for the Corpril; there's three for me; there's three for you." "'T?un't peas, thick 'un," Vennal would break in uproariously, "it's turnips—each of 'em got a root like my fist." At this moment of perplexity, some medicine, that she had obtained from Edith, occurred to her, and, with a feeling of confidence, and almost of extacy, she took a phial from a shelf in a cupboard where she had placed it, and, pouring out the contents in a large spoon, hesitated an instant ere she administered it. "Let me see," said she; "surely it was a large spoonful Edith told me to give—yet all that was in the phial doesn't fill the spoon. Surely I can't be wrong: no—I remember she said a large spoonful, and we didn't talk of any thing else—so I must be right." But Mary still hesitated, till, hearing a sudden noise in the court-yard, which, she conjectured, was her mistress returned, and as the child was getting worse every moment, she leaned back its head, and, forcing open its mouth, compelled the patient, though with difficulty, to swallow its death. The draught was taken; the rigid muscles relaxed, and for a minute the child lay motionless in her lap; but in an instant after, Mary could scarcely suppress a shriek at the horrid sight that met her gaze. The eyes opened, and glared, and seemed as if starting from the head—the fair face and the red lips, were blue, deepening and deepening, till settling in blackness—the limbs contracted—the mouth opened, and displayed a tongue discoloured and swollen—then came a writhing and heaving of the body, and a low, agonized moan: and, as Mary looked almost frantic at this dreadful sight, Edith's words, when she had given her the phial, "that there was enough there to kill," suddenly occurred to her—and then, too, came, with a dreadful distinctness, the remembrance of the true directions which Edith had given. It was nearly noon the next day, when the under-sheriff entered the room to ask if their opinions were yet unanimous. The galleyman still refused. "That for ye, coward," said Tyler, striking him with the flat side of his bared weapon. Oakley aimed another thrust which was again turned aside, and the smith, now flinging down his sword, seized upon his right hand and wrenched the dagger from its grasp. After a short struggle, Oakley fell heavily on the pavement with the blood streaming from his mouth and nostrils. HoME萝拉泷泽第4部资源
