"By 2030, 80% of humans had lost their jobs, AI Elon Musk says. Those humans have no money or purpose, AI Jeff Bezos adds, but they do have "a lot of time on their hands." "What if we could use the energy of humans to power the machines that took away their jobs," AI Musk said."
"The Belgian AI startup AiCandy released a new advertisement for their company, mocking AI's skyrocketing demand for energy. It imagines a 2036 in which humans now power AI through group workouts - and features AI-aged versions of Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos."
"Buyse and his cofounder, Jan De Loore, told Business Insider that they were thrilled with the reach of their videos. They expected some virality, but not the millions of views it would bring to their account."
Belgian AI startup AiCandy released a viral advertisement mocking AI's escalating energy consumption. The spoof depicts a fictional 2036 scenario where an "Energym" company uses human-powered cycling and rowing classes to generate electricity for AI systems. The ad features AI-aged versions of Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos discussing how 80% of humans lost jobs to AI but retain abundant free time. The video presents a dystopian premise where displaced workers unknowingly power the machines that eliminated their employment. The Instagram Reel garnered over 4 million views with widespread reposts across social media platforms, generating significant attention and business inquiries for the startup's founders.
