But that assumption is the same as thinking a fallen object will keep gaining speed until it passes the speed of light. Or that Moore’s law would really keep going forever despite a very real limit in physics for how small a chip can be.

I gotta say, I’ve been hearing predictions that Moore"s law is coming to an end every year for the past twenty years.

Look, strictly speaking if you take Moore"s law word for word, sure there is a limit to how small a silicon transistor can be. However, realistically, I see no reason to expect computers won’t continue to meaningfully increase in capability every year forever.

When a technology reaches physical limits, we figure out how to bend the rules and get a little bit more out. And when that stops working, we start exploring different architectures, different materials. I think it’s just silly to predict that technology won’t improve, when has that ever happened?

If by “job” you mean the actual fucking slavery that is the for profit prison system is the US.

I mean haha, that’s very funny, but we do have actual slavery in the US in 2026.
