Technology, finance, and law will dictate the pace of the AI revolution. Are you ready?

March 30, 2024

The AI revolution is just getting started. Like the agricultural revolution and the industrial revolution, the AI revolution will not happen overnight. Humans will have time to adapt. As AI continues to advance, it will reach a point of maturity when it will be able to fully replace human labor in all economic fields. Opposite to the industrial revolution, the AI revolution will replace knowledge workers before manual labor. The pace of the AI revolution will be dictated mainly by technological, financial, and legal factors. Smart humans will adapt and become "ADEPT" (artistic developers - entrepreneurial producers - trainers) prospering and living well in the times of AI.  

There will be many factors interplaying with the AI revolution. Not unlike the agricultural revolution and the industrial revolution, the AI revolution will not happen overnight. The AI revolution will take decades to mature and will endure for centuries to come. There is no way back. Progress is unidirectional and the move towards increasing convenience is unstoppable. Three main factors will dictate the pace of the AI revolution and AI's ability to fully replace human labor in all economic fields.

      1. Technological Obstacles. Not all human occupations are created equal. From a technological standpoint, it will take longer for AI to replace some human occupations than others. Interestingly, knowledge workers will be technologically replaceable faster than manual workers. In that sense, the AI revolution will be the opposite of the industrial revolution. In the industrial revolution, machines replaced animal labor, but did not replace knowledge-based workers. In the AI revolution, knowledge workers will be easier to replace than manual ones because it is easier to develop and train AI bots than to develop and train AI robots. An AI bot is a bodiless robot. AI bot is computerized intelligence over servers and the internet. An AI robot is a mechanical macro scale machine housing or receiving AI. The full integration of AI bots into AI robots will be the turning point of the AI revolution. 

    2. Financial Obstacles. One thing is technological capability and another one altogether is financial or economic viability. It will take many decades before it is financially viable (economically feasible and profitable) to design and produce mass amounts of AI robots to do all the jobs performed by humans today. Industrial robots will most likely precede residential ones. Just like computers industrial ones will precede personal ones. Eventually, of course, personal AI robots will be ubiquitous in advanced human societies. Tell me how many AI robots you have and I'll tell you who you are will become a measuring gauge for countries, economies, industries, businesses, and households. AI robots will be like cars today. They will be everywhere. Cars, by the way, will also become self-driving AI robots coordinating transportation and all sorts of logistics support for human societies of the future. 

    3. Legal Obstacles. Besides technological and financial viability, there is also legal allowability. As AI continues to advance and change society, there will be calls for laws to either accelerate or slow down AI. Different countries will have different laws about AI. Within countries, different economic sectors and special interests will push for different laws and regulations regarding AI. Some legal battles may become very contentious and polarizing. AI will be the new "slave" dividing public opinion. Just like  the industrial revolution led to the end of slavery, and the issue led to civil war in the United States, the AI revolution and the new AI "slavery" may lead to legal battles that may escalate into armed conflict. 

The AI future is being created today. Those who can adapt and become "ADEPT" (artistic developers - entrepreneurial producers - trainers of AI) will most likely fare very well. Don't miss out. Stay tuned.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump?

December 12, 2024 Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump? President-elect Donald Trump has acknowledged the difficulty of reducing grocery prices, stating, "It's hard to bring things down once they're up."  Lower Energy Costs and Better Logistics Trump hopes that lower energy costs and improved supply chains may prevent significant price increases on food. However, many economists believe that Trump's tariffs on foreign countries and massive deportation of illegal immigrants, which include millions of undocumented farm workers, will increase food prices.  Additionally, while Trump emphasizes the role that potentially lower energy prices may have in food costs, experts note that energy constitutes a relatively small portion of food production expenses. Energy prices may also increase despite experts forecasting that they will stay relatively low or go further down. After all, economists and financial experts are wrong often, almost all of the t...

Is there a Tesla bubble?

December 10, 2024 Is there a Tesla bubble? You bet. As of December 10, 2024, Tesla (Ticker: TSLA) is approaching an all-time high valuation, with a current share price of $401. The record closing price stands at $410, achieved on November 4, 2021. This gives the American electric car maker a market capitalization of $1.26 Trillion.  Tesla is trading at 110 times earnings. The average price to earnings ratio in the "traditional" automotive industry (excluding Tesla, and also excluding Chinese car makers) is about 6.7. That is, while almost all car makers in the world trade at 7 times earnings in average, Tesla is trading at 110, which is 15 times the industry average.  Major Automakers (Excluding Tesla and Chinese car makers) ranked by P/E: Subaru Corporation (Ticker: 7270.T): 12.0 Suzuki Motor Corporation (Ticker: 7269.T): 10.0 Toyota Motor Corporation (Ticker: TM): 9.70 Isuzu Motors Limited (Ticker: 7202.T): 9.0 Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
