When your livelihood is in jeopardy, you will be pissed.

Everyone's livelihood is to an extent always in jeopardy in the private sector though, I've never seen anyone else bitch and moan like this though.

Most artists moan, now it's just a lot more in our faces because the intersection is between technology and art.

I still can't understand how and why peoople pay hundreds of millions of dollars for a piece of art.

If it's something like this:

Money laundering

There is a weird thing about this. Especially with tax evasion.

AI art is pure faggotry,

I can't do it. AI art gives me the creeps like 1000 spinning CGI helicopters gives me the creeps in some Marvel movie.

AI art is like going to The Olive Garden for Italen food. Simulated based on superficial understanding and completely lacking a mother's love.

I don't even understand why someone would drop 3-4k on a painting lol.

Then again, my sister and her husband paid 5k for a toilet.

Were they on the Space Shuttle?

Nah, I get the paying a lot for art thing, even if I only pay to support artists to do their work rather than to build castles for their parasite useless children or corporate criminals.

It's a scarcity thing that lasts. They're the original NFTs. It's why pharma bro Martin Shkreli paid $2 million for Wu Tang's "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin".

I don't do it, but the scarcity is the point.

1 trillion dollars or the ability to cure anyone from any disease except for yourself and your loved ones.

Obviously the latter.

I'd just start charging people money.

You could make that as a walking pharma lab.

I'd just want to be Ironman. Solve this Gaza shit real fast.

Exactly.

Once again a Bolivian shows he has no understanding of basic economics.

Just get Netanyahu and whoever the fuck is Hamas's leader in a cage match, WWE style (without the fixing of course)

All fun and games until the North Koreans kidnap you to cure the Supreme Leader's diabetes.

And then you refuse, unless they set you free.

What are they going to do? Kill you? Then you'll never cure him.

I dunno. Other than dick pills, most curable diseases aren't $1 trillion markets.

The global market for infectious disease treatments is at $72.4 billion (source). The market size of all "rare" diseases combined isn't even $200 billion (source).

My vote?: take the money, baby...

Just get Netanyahu and whoever the fuck is Hamas's leader in a cage match, WWE style (without the fixing of course)

PPV. Could buy Palestinians the nation of Bolivia as their new country.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

That and the conceptual difference from a billion versus a trillion is minimal. It's hard to comprehend billion on its own. If you made a dollar a second, you will have a million in two weeks. A dollar a second, it takes you 33 years to get a billion. Think about a trillion.

Take your family hostage and threaten to kill them?

Way too easy to become a target if the public finds out about your power. Gimme the money.

It said every disease.

And I am the market. I decide.

That is going to convince me to cure them?
