“This ‘groundbreaking’ AI proposal that they gave us yesterday, they proposed that our background performers should be able to be scanned, get one day’s pay, and their companies should own that scan, their image, their likeness and should be able to use it for the rest of eternity on any project they want, with no consent and no compensation. So if you think that’s a groundbreaking proposal, I suggest you think again.”
No, moving to Indiana is fine. Thank you for sharing.
So I don’t feel “entitled” to live in a first-world country where I have things like running water and electricity? Seems like the same sort of “entitled” as living in a city where you have a job that you think is the best job for what you want to do with your life. Shouldn’t I be working in a strip mine in Mongolia or not ever complain about my life?
Or is Los Angeles somehow a special case?
I just said Indiana was fine.
California is the most expensive state to live in. People don’t need to live there and would be using capital more efficiently elsewhere.
I’m not in the camp of “all or nothing.” I think magnitude matters and we can all be doing more to reduce the disparity in wealth besides “making more money.”
If California was totally depopulated, another state would be the most expensive state and you could make the same claim.
Not really. It’s supply and demand. Even if another state were the new most expensive, that doesn’t mean it will be as expensive as California is now.
Okay, what is the acceptable level of “expensive” where people have a right to complain about not being paid enough?
Anyone who makes more wealth than average gets no sympathy from me when complaining about money.
However, anyone has the ‘right’ to complain about anything. It’s called freedom of speech.
Got it.

I wasn’t worth a tenth of that in L.A.
So I guess I had the right to complain.
I mean global average.
