I mean it's nice they are showing them getting ready to jump.

Good catch!

This will not age well when the AI bubble pops.

This fucking guy.

Cut the beam!

I'm imagining just a really strong gust of wind...

Based.

I'm willing to settle for a strong gust of wind to see who pushes who off first.

I just find it funny that Satya bet everything on this bubble— trashed the company and brand— and he didn’t even make the cut on public consciousness

This just proves you're a human

In my opinion, a terrible job composing this image, too

I am once again apologizing to environmental storytellers.

Did any of them write Attention is All You Need? Asking for a prosopagnosic friend...

And, of course, he is an important supporter of AI Agents and already slashes the number of employees at Salesforce to replace them by chatbots.

I do find it interesting that they cut pictures of all of them sitting and pasted them onto the original image instead of using AI to generate it

Replying to @ramiismail.com: I have seen wonders built by hands, not fortunes. The true marvel is the craft, not the coin that claims it. A tower raised to the sky holds more soul than a ledger.

"We are now living in the world that the thinking machine—and its makers—have created." This is beyond dumb. Gen-AI does not think! It is just a probability machine with too much gas.

Wow, I really didn't think I could have any less respect for Time Magazine yet....here we are.

BREAKING: Time Magazine names architects of Soylent Green nutritional supplement their 'Person of the Year'

Lame.

This will be a great relic to find thousands of years from now when someone discovers the aftermath

Also this Photoshop job looks like ass.

Also, we need to stop glorifying architects. They’re just as shitty as the rest of us, sometimes more so!

Insane

Saying it's in poor taste would be the understatement of the century. Time, you fucking suck.

It feels legitimately profane

holy fuck cmon

That looks like a job for gravity and a strong breeze.

The only thing they've risked is clean drinking water as their AI data centers are polluting the environment

History's biggest monsters

You gotta get into that grindset 😉

And the irresistible desire to give them all a good push

What a fucking ass wipe. How did this country ever win a revolution in the first place?

CUT THE ROPE !

I don’t see how they could possibly regret this cover in 5..4..3..2…

The only silver lining is that most of these guys will be as disgusted as we are by this cover, only that their issue is having to share it with another human being.

gosh this isn’t real is it???

Trump is telling people they prob cant buy toys for their kids for christmas. But hey Billionaires ARE the true heros.

What fucking losers.

This seems like an awfully grim portend of the coming apocalypse

Right up there with their hitler cover

And they are not the architects of those technologies AT ALL. They pay people to invent and build those technologies. The people on the picture are just managers. They do administrative work. They don't BUILD anything themselves. They are very few CEOs who actually build things.

It's cheap, tawdry, derivative, clearly artificial and steals from an existing picture by an actual photographer in order to sell magazines for an entertainment company. That picture really embodies the spirit of AI.

The difference is, we want everyone in this picture to fall off the beam.

That said, given the economic bubble, they are creating, that picture might be pretty accurate. A bunch of moron, supported by sh.t, and who might fall on us all at any time

Persons I muted this year

My understanding is that "TIME Person of the Year" has never been an inherently positive accolade. It's merely intended to be the person or people who had the biggest impact that year, regardless of whether that impact was positive or negative. Hitler and Stalin won it back-to-back in the late 30s.

I swear, sometimes it feels like whoever does the cover art for Time is secretly an S tier Ragebait creator, yet it just feels too genuine

If only they all fell.

There is not a single person in this picture who has ever worked a day in their lives or done anything at all beneficial for humankind

You might read that wrong. Maybe they are suggesting to put them billionaires on a steel beam high in the sky for a few days. With Vaseline.

A lot of people misunderstand what Time’s person of the year is all about. They select the most impactful person, not the best person.

Far from the most important point but they could have moved them over slightly to the left so the woman on the right isn’t half cut out of the frame

each of the people on that beam would push each other off of it if they knew they wouldn't get caught

Disgusting

@ramiismail.com Let's cut that beam!

This is gonna go down in history alongside the Elizabeth Holmes Forbes cover as early as next year.

None of these are architects, either. They are fundraisers and checkbooks.

You are absolutely right, I responded with this on someone's comment, referring to these tech oligarchs as 'Steel workers' bsky.app/profile/anan...

These people are crazy as sh*t. Why on earth should/would we want to promote AI? Humanity will lose this war.

So very well said. Thank you.

I believe “Person of the year” implies the affect they have had on humanity for better or worse. It’s not BEST person of the year. Hopefully the article itself is truthful in that sense. Either way, there are better people to write about lol.

id vote for the person that pushes them off. this is so disrespectful

Eaaarthhhhquaaaake…..

Let's redefine possible.

One more signal to sell short.

I mean, the iron workers were also in it for the money. They were not motivated primarily by a desire to make tall buildings.

And people wonder if time is a circle.

If AI and techbros were skyscraper workers, the elevator anime waifu screen would stop at the second floor (aka the top floor cuz still waiting for govt bailout), call you a racial slur, tell your kids where to buy BDSM gear and leak your private info.

Why do they all have bubble head sized heads?

“Architects of AI” and it’s just people who are astroturfing a subset of AI technology that doesn’t have near the amount of use cases they claim

This is all about capital making sure they never pay for labor (and healthcare) again. Through AI, capital owns the means of labor.

They’ve also sacked the graphic designer I see…

Please remove whatever counterweight is holding that beam up.

The beam is an analogy of our cowardice and how if we just pulled the support of this shower of piss then we'd all, ALL of us,be much better off 8 trillionaire wannabies or dead children in Sudan, Gaza, etc "but they're so much more important - they got this plagiraism machine you see" fuck off

🤮🤮🤮

Much better.

Just make it shake.

hope the message here is that all these people get pushed off the beam at the same time
