Re:OpenAI Feared "Optics" of what might appear on Hacker News by nylonstrung on Sunday September 27, 2026 @06:41AM (#49865460)
AI is fundamentally unlike the automotive industry in that it employs a remarkably small amount of people despite hundreds of billions being invested

There is probably no industry to date with a smaller ratio of labor:capital in terms of the money being allocated

The auto industry led to a net increase in employment, including "unskilled" and lower class labor. The same cannot be said of LLMs
