Okay then pay them a livable wage, and then they will be successful. Fucking billionaires need to put their money where their mouth is. A bunch of asshats
They do get paid well...
For example, Lutnick claimed that technician jobs are promising gigs with a low barrier to entry, that can pay anywhere between $70,000 to $90,000 at the onset—no college degree required.
The issue is the quantity of these jobs, not the quality.
And once you're in, you're in...
And not in a good way, you'll get used to that 70k lifestyle in a year or two, but if you lose your job for any reason, there's insane competition for the few spots you're qualified for. And anything outside of this, you'll never make that match.
They'll pay a little more to a very small amount of employees if it creates a captive and trained workforce.
So, you're right that "corporations are bad" you just don't under the long game and the corporations do.
I mean those are technicians, not factory workers. For those see: https://www.bls.gov/oes/2023/may/oes519199.htm
You don't get to be filtty rich doing that
Hey, let’s get those factory jobs paying 50 to 75 dollars an hour and we have a deal. Otherwise, goan fuck yourself.
Slavery, he means Slavery.
Woah woah woah. Capitalism is the new terminology that's what replaced slavery. Also why the aristocrats were all in.
"You need to become a factory worker!" Meanwhile, factories are trying to automate every job possible.
OK then make traditional factory jobs pay well enough to own a house and see your children through college again.
A factory worker makes less today than they did in the 50's!!! Because the 1% has managed to grab all the money in their infinite greed. The money grab of the rich is the biggest heist in the history of mankind.
Also not every billionaire needs to flaunt with how enormously ignorant they are on basic issues of society.
The rich need to be taxed on their fortune. Nobody needs to be as rich as the 1%.
politicians, officials, scotus, those in positions of power, will steal, imbezzle, misuse any funds gained. lobbying should be illegal. this all needs to go or it amounts to little gained.
He should prove it to us.
Put your money where your mouth is, bitch.
Put your money where your mouth is and open a factory and pay above average wages, Jensen.
You literally run a company that doesn’t manufacture anything itself but designs for others to manufacture.
Sounds like he wants more clients.
No problem, just make a single income from one partner working a factory job enough money to live a comfortable middle class life again.
Jobs a good'un
Those jobs are all getting automated. And jobs that used to pay decent wages like trucking and being a taxi driver are slotted to be automated away, too.
Same for many, many white collar jobs that were supposed to be the path out of this trap of poverty that the rust belt and other places were thrown into, starting in the 70s. A whole lot of MBAs think that they need to get rid of all the "excess" people on payroll...
Cool, you first bro.
Lead by examples, techbros!
I don't disagree with this take but coming out of this billionaires mouth I feel he means it in a different way.
Guaranteed he does mean it in a different way, that people should come work for his suppliers like TSMC at substandard wages only to be discarded and laid off in a few years when markets and demand shifts elsewhere.
Fuck that piece of shit. I hope the AI bubble bursts soon and he loses his job and money. Has to work in a factory in unsafe conditions, gets into a horrible accident, becomes paralyzed and shits and pisses in his pants for the rest of his lives.
Gonna start paying factory workers six figures are you? If not piss off!
As someone with a factory job, I agree. Admittedly I have a degree, and I'm doing supply chain work in an office, but a 75k setup machinist or CNC programmer job is pretty good compared to spending 100 grand in student loans to make 75K as an office drone.
I wouldn't advise anyone drop out of medical school to run a packaging line in a factory, but there are a lot of people who do pretty well. You land in a union shop or an ESOP and you can make real money.
That would be great if we didn't treat factory workers like the dirt on the bottom of our collective shoes. Every factory I've ever worked in has been depressing at best and abusive at worst, none of them ever made me feel successful.
Ok but we want the factory jobs from the 50’s that paid one worker an entire family’s living wage. We should go to the 1950’s wealth tax rate of 90% to achieve this. I think what he means is impoverished guilded age slavery though.
Fuck Jensen Huang in the ass with a cactus, sideways.
I've worked in more than one manufacturing plant and it's miserable even on the IT side; and that's with air conditioning.
True, I suppose, but factory jobs? I thought those dried up when we gave China all our manufacturing.
What a piece of shit.
Looking at Nvidia…. Of over 1,000 job openings USA, only one matches keyboard “technician”. It’s a marketing job requiring a bachelors degree and three years experience
I also see a section of their website on campus recruiting and globally there are college internships.
This might be a good place for the NVidia CEO to start looking.
You first.
With poor labor protections and shitty health care, factory jobs aren't what they were 50 years ago. It's a work-until-you-die career.
All he really means is people should learn to accept sub minimum wage and be happy they have a shitty job.
start with yourself, bitch. give your money to charity and we’ll find you a nice line job at a meat packing plant.
jensen huang, finding success for you will mean avoiding the guillotine.
But every writer for Elle magazine needs a PhD.
Let's just ignore the massive wage suppression and consolidation of assets and whatever. Let's ignore the fragility that's been intentionally created in the supply chain with staffing levels and anti transit legislation.
Let's ignore everything but capital investment and long term reliability plans. If you look at the current state of manufacturing in most places and do a hard assessment on how much they are putting back into facilities to keep them running efficiently. Now you easily sum up a response to this with a very effective: LOL fuckwit.
Low pay, terrible work condition
UBI really needed to happen before AI and advanced robots. Really interested to see how China handles this.
I remember telling people about UBI and the coming automation and the possibility of AI coming for a lot of jobs. I've been saying this kind of thing since early to mid-00s, if not the 90s. People looked at me like I was crazy, for the most part.
It's not like I'm all that prescient or brilliant or anything....I just happen to read.
Even now, when it's very obviously eating into jobs, there are lots of people still mostly following celebrity gossip and doing fantasy football picks or whatever and still seemingly oblivious...
It's not like I'm all that prescient or brilliant or anything....I just happen to read.
Yup.
It's always "No one could have predicted this."
We will be watching from afar to see how much good this experiment of devaluing human ingenuity and academia does for america; But the current trend says turning into an idiot country is not good at all.
