The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Like Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Hero's, "I know Nothing" about these potential impacts.

Same here. My own interactions with "AI" have been unsatisfactory. Gemini seems to be an improvement over regular Google search. I've asked programming questions and gotten answers that were simply wrong. I'm probably asking wrong. Plus, I can't let it have access to actual code - NDA and all that.

NYT has a short piece on the research report today:

nytimes.com - Citrini AI stock market
Bleak Research Report Stokes A.I. Debate on Wall St.
In a widely circulated note, Citrini Research painted a dire picture of job losses and stock market sell-offs, though many analysts and economists questioned its conclusions.

Concerns about artificial intelligence have been brewing on Wall Street for months. But the reaction this week to a small research firm’s dire scenario that A.I. will drive mass unemployment and a plunge in stock values reflects a deep skittishness in markets.

In a note that was widely circulated on social media over the weekend, Citrini Research painted a dark picture of what might happen to the economy as A.I. upends white-collar work. The report described well-paid professionals forced to become Uber drivers and missed mortgage payments by displaced tech workers in Seattle and Austin, Texas.
