      Exactly, AI is only scary if you need a job to survive.

      If AI takes work from us, we should be freed by not having to work, not doomed to starvation.

      The current economic status quo is entirely unequipped to deal with the next couple of decades, and the options for progressive change are dwindling.

      I’m absolutely not calling for revolution right now, but the glacial rate we’re evolving our economy is going to make it inevitable or else we’ll be left with some kind of Mad Max hellscape before the century is out.

        I also find AI taking other people’s jobs depressing. Whenever I purchase something or need customer service, I’d always rather interact with a human than AI

      Specifically capitalism paired with zero sum game mentality.

      If someone is convinced the only way for themselves to win is to make other people (including me) lose, that’s where the biggest problems happen.

      They don’t want to look at the big picture, they’d rather focus on rage bait articles

      Exactly, let’s worry about the horrible people fucking over the planet first! AI is such an amazing opportunity for distraction, capitalists are gonna capitalize on that for sure!

      More so human nature. Humans are greedy.

          Remember how Soviet workers would smuggle parts out of their jobs to reuse themselves? There was a job field filled by babushkas that would inspect workers before they left. Is that the fault of capitalism? I know the people at the top do it much worse, but humans naturally compete with each other.

              Yeah that’s fair. I think the truth is somewhere in the middle. We shouldn’t rely on greed to make a system nor altruism alone. The difficult part is actually making a system that works.
