"Jobs we can't fill" == "not willing to pay a living wage"

I've owned NVDA for over 8 years. It's been up and down, but I believe in Jensen Huang and will stick with NVDA until Jensen says otherwise. I know that sounds crazy, but when the financial statements/Jensen, (same to me) tell me to sell, I will. I'm sure I won't sell at the top, but that's OK.

"6, 700,000 jobs we can't fill"........have you tried paying enough money to allow the employee to pay their bills?
-
What I don’t understand is, on one hand we are told the stock market will crash and yet on the other we are told ways of investing in the stock market especially AI stocks. Oxymoron or paradox?
-
"don't worry. you will get a job as a manager of the robots". LOL

Boston Dynamics sells Spot for $70,000.00. Chinese sells a Spot clone for $13,000.00. Soon Wish and Temu will sell it for $199.00

No human workers = no customers
-
I don't like "10% on average" sure, money you had 20 years ago might be 200% larger, People hear high figures associated with NVIDIA and are expecting more than 10%, which isn't going to happen. I wish to cover up with short term investments.

There isn't a " labor shortage " there is a paying people fairly problem.
-
Hope that Will Smith will still be around once they start going rogue.
-
There are already a lot of people working these lower level jobs who are struggling. People losing those low-level jobs to robots isn't going to help society. It's going to help those who are rich enough to afford the robots.
-
there is no workforce shortage. There is a pay shortage. The jobs "people don't want to do" are jobs that companies don't pay a living wage to because the executive class are taking all the profits.
-
Robots take the undesired jobs and AI the desired
-
I feel sorry for Gen Z and later because without UBI they are going to find it hard to compete in a workforce where your competition doesn't take a salary, doesn't get sick, doesn't require health benefits, can work 24/7 nonstop, won't complain and doesn't need a degree or four years of schooling.

“I think artificial intelligence has the ability to create infinitely stable dictatorships” - Ilya Sutskever
-
There isn't a robots taking all the jobs problem. There is a bosses getting rid of the workers problem.
-
We're sprinting into a dystopia.
-
My question is if corporations plan on going AI that means putting people out of work who’s gonna have money to pay for their products?
-
Its like how they said A.I will only replace those jobs that nobody wants..oh you mean artist, musicians, programmers etc. lol
-
So, we're safe until the robot figures out how to disable the killswitch? Got it!
