The implication is that companies in a private market can't possibly be hugely inefficient for irrational reasons that can ultimately be self-harming.
An interesting take.
I used the term "private market" when I actually meant the private sector. I just mean all labor that isn't government owned - public companies, private companies etc. So yes - in a reasonably functioning capitalist market (which the U.S still is in my eyes) I expect gross inefficiencies to not be prevalent.
They can be irrational and ineffective. Nevertheless, if LLM are useful, they would still earn more then before.
Regardless of their effectivity, it means LLMs are not useful for them.
