    > … so far all the evidence suggests that investment in data centers comes at the expense of other investments. As I argued last week, AI “crowds out” other potential uses of capital. Moreover, because data centers employ so few workers, the vast spending on AI currently taking place will also significantly reduce the demand for labor.

  4. I quit my job because I did not want to take part in growing a company with an AI-first strategy (whatever that means).

    I was aware of the current state of the job market, I knew how hard it would be to find anything (it took me over 2 years to land the previous job). I took a plunge anyway.

    It's never been this dire. The few open positions are so utterly ridiculous that you really start doubting your own sanity.

  7. AMRO Slashes 2026 Philippines GDP Growth Forecast

    The Philippines, which is currently the host of the ASEAN Summit and is also one of the economic weaklings of Southeast Asia, is predicted by ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office (AMRO) to have slower gross domestic product (GDP) growth this year, according to a news report by BusinessWorld.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of BusinessWorld. Some parts in boldface…

    THE Philippine economy may continue to grow below its potential through 2027 as persistent energy shocks and weak investment weigh on activity, the ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office (AMRO) said.

    In its latest ASEAN+3 Regional Economic Outlook, AMRO slashed its Philippine gross domestic product (GDP) growth projections for this year to 3.3% from its July estimate of 4.1% and for 2027 to 4.6% from 5.5%.

    Both forecasts are below the National Government’s growth targets of 3.5%-4.5% for 2026 and 5%-6% for 2027.

    AMRO also trimmed its inflation forecast for this year to 5.6% from 5.7% previously but raised it for next year to 4.6% from 4.1% previously.

    If realized, inflation will accelerate from the 1.7% clip last year and breach the central bank’s 3% target for two consecutive years.

    At a press briefing on Monday, AMRO Chief Economist Dong He noted that the Middle East war-driven energy shock took a heavy toll on the Philippine economy, significantly slowing growth while fueling inflation.

    “The Philippines is one of the economies that was hit harder by the energy shock,” he said. “As you recall, when the Middle East conflict took place, the government took very swift action and they introduced a national emergency. So that, I think, helped the country galvanize towards responses towards this big energy shock.”

    “But of course, growth did slow down significantly and the inflation went up very quickly,” Mr. He added.

    The AMRO chief economist also noted that the Philippine economy continues to be weighed down by an investment slump following the flood control corruption scandal which broke out last year.

    “Now, the Philippines also have some domestic issues that they need to deal with,” Mr. He said. “Remember, there was this flood control-related issue and that significantly slowed down public investment.”

    “So, the growth outlook is very dependent on how fast public investment and construction related activities can pick up,” he added.

    Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think there really is not much the government can do to boost economic growth this year? What is your opinion about the way the current economic managers of the Philippines are handling economic matters? Would you be surprised to see the Philippine economy fall into a recession in the first half of 2028?

  9. Futurism: Creative Industries Have Been Eviscerated by AI, Data Shows. “If you work in a creative industry or media, you probably don’t need anybody to tell you how bad things have gotten. Still, even the most intimate first-hand knowledge can’t prepare you for the sheer scope of the devastation. As data journalist Joseph Politano found in a new Substack post, the US has lost more than […]

  14. How #AI would have fixed it:
    "Get people back to #work without #rearming. Start a temporary, debt-financed public-works + relief program #housing, #transport, #repairs + #unemployment support so families could keep spending + businesses could keep operating. A similar #jobs plan was proposed in Germany in 1932 but rejected; later research finds Brüning #austerity worsened slump + increased #unemployment.

    Stop financial panic from spreading. Protect sound #banks with emergency liquidity + guarantees, coordinate with other countries to #stabilize short-term lending + negotiate #debt + reparations relief. A #bankingcrisis + collapsing #credit were feeding the downturn, so leaving banks and borrowers to fail risked making it worse.

    Protect #democracy while addressing #crisis Keep parliament and elections functioning, reject rule by emergency decree as a substitute for governing, enforce laws against political violence, and protect political opponents... #Germany #Europe #USA #EU
