It's a magic unit of AI power, likely chosen by the AI company, that they will give you for free. You can trade this for our new AI based Cryptocurrency which our AI based algorithm will keep pegged 1:1 with USD (cannot be directly exchanged for USD). If you aren't a sucker who wastes money converting it at a loss in order to acquire food, housing, or healthcare, you may choose to use your universal basic compute power and AI will make you rich and powerful and beautiful eventually.

That's the power of AI. Soon it will surpass us so much that all we'll be able to do is sit back and occasionally tell the AI to keep us in luxury and it'll be able to do it. The more personal info you feed into the AI's blockchain the more better it can make your life.

What if instead of money for food and rent, you got a computer to do math for you. Unlike crypto, this does not have any proposed way to turn computer time into pizzas or drugs. It's literally nonsense.

But the computer can do your job faster and more efficiently than you and your employer will pay you the same in real cash as they were without AI. If they won't you can just get the AI to lean on the company for you to make sure you get paid enough to live.

I mean the original shovel salesmen were working with the Gold Rush, so it was intensely based on the idea of 'future gains' of finding a gold vein and becoming rich off the mineral rights, so less far off than you think. The big difference is that in this analogy, the shovel salesman is also a rube who's been sold the idea that there's a gold rush coming by someone who fooled them with pyrite and sight unseen packed up all their stuff and moved out to the site that doesn't have any gold in it.

So we've just decided to noun the verb "compute" I see

You know, I know the energy costs are just astronomical and it's not considered generally feasibly possible to fire something into the sun, but what if the world got together and just stuffed all of these fuckers and the billionaire class into a rocket and launched it into the sun anyway?

I mean, we don't need to have them travel from the Earth to the Sun in an hour, all you really need to do is get them off planet and not dragged into another planet's gravity and we're golden right? And even if they did, it's not like any of them are navigating themselves back by their own bootstraps.

It doesn't matter if we launch them into the sun or just into space far enough to escape gravity or maybe not. Once they're in space they're not going to last long unless we provide them with a massive support system which is going to be massively expensive. If they wanna pay to develop that technology we they leave behind can learn from it and spend our time and effort and whatever money the rich left behind saving the earth.

As long as they don't come back and allow us to harvest data from them and their voyage, similar to how we've been giving them our data for years.

They'll just be in a slightly different orbit than the earth. They won't eventually fall into the sun. Actually getting to the sun takes a lot of energy. You need to effectively cancel out nearly all of the orbital speed of earth. Escaping the solar system is easier, which also means that there is a more energy efficient but significantly slower way to launch things into the sun. You put it on a near-escape trajectory and then wait until it's really far out and going really slowly, and then a tiny impulse would be enough to make the orbit intersect the sun.

e: there's about 500,000 pounds worth of billionaires in the world. Rough guess is it would take a couple dozen Saturn Vs, tops.

One of the current trends in cosmetic surgery is removal of buccal fat to dramatically enhance the cheekbones.
