   We're spending a trillion dollars to create computers that can act like a human, and so every homeless bum is a billion dollar computer we're wasting.

     @quinn yeah but with the homeless you still need to treat them like human beings.

     Somebody made a point that the whole "AGI" thing is about recreating slavery and techbros wanting to have slaves, and that's a pretty good observation IMVHO.

     Dark, but on-point.

     @jack i'm sorry if you don't like homeless people, they are human beings and it would be great if we treated them as such. but i imagine you'd throw people into a meat grinder to get patted on the head.
