Mark Zuckerberg's rambling AI manifesto is 6,434 words of high-handed platitudes and dubious conclusions

All of the billionaires are fucking idiots who got lucky. I have no idea why people look up to them like they're supergeniuses. They're clearly not. We've learned to equate money with intelligence but there's actually little connection. I'd argue it's more closely aligned with immorality, and of course luck is a big part of it. The immorality just helps you turn a little startup luck into even more "luck", recursively, forever.
They literally all brag about not being educated, it's not like they didn't tell us. lol
Why is this 'either or'? He is a brilliant person and a sociopath. It's not mutually exclusive.
He is not brilliant person. He would be fired many times over if he didn't own majority shares.
Billions and billions into VR and AI and really nothing to show for it.
Zuckerberg learned computer programming in his childhood. At about the age of eleven, he created "ZuckNet", a program that allowed computers at the family home and his father's dental office to communicate with each other.[11] During Zuckerberg's high-school years, he worked to build a music player called the Synapse Media Player. The device used machine learning to learn the user's listening habits, which was posted to Slashdot[12] and received a rating of 3 out of 5 from PC Magazine.[13] The New Yorker once said of Zuckerberg, "some kids played computer games. Mark created them."[7] While still in high school, he attended Mercy College taking a graduate computer course on Thursday evenings.[7]
I'd say this is enough to call him brilliant.
Just because he's an arrogant sociopath doesn't mean he's also a knuckle dragging idiot.
6k words sounds pretty weak for a manifesto. He coulda just written it with ai
How would you tell which kind of fake not-person wrote it?
I passed it through checkers and it came back not AI. So if AI is an accessible super intelligence, why didn't he access it?
or
He told an LLM to make it look authentic.
Or your checker was wrong because it's also 'AI'
Print it out and make him choke on it.
Did he even do anything with “tech”? He made a website, and by the time it got to any level of complexity there were people smarter than him doing the real work. And it’s not like MySpace didn’t already exist at the time, so as usual it’s the less creative second person with a few fewer morals who ended up with the big money.

He's a fucking idiot who figured out how to make a web site and got lucky with what he built and when he built it. He is not brilliant by any measure. Fuck him.
