A little mid-week rant (aka- I don’t want to read a book by a Robot!)

I don’t understand the logic, really I don’t. Okay, you want to see how far we can get this AI tech to go. Companies want to see how much it can earn for shareholders, But PEOPLE who become unemployed based on the technology won’t have money to spend, right?

So how do you EARN from that you freakin’ morons? From people with no money? If you brag about increasing unemployment by 20-30%, so how does that not negatively impact your earnings 20%-30%?

If you’ve been looking for a job recently you will find that the majority of roles are now flat out telling you “we want you to help us train AI in your area of expertise”. What, AI can fix a roof? Or fix your plumbing? Not everyone will be capable of career changing to manual labor. This is creating a class divide like we’ve never seen before in this country and no one is concerned?

No bootstraps ever created will get some folks out of permanent, GENERATIONAL poverty. And no amount of billionaire funds you may have access to will buy the labor of people you are crushing beneath you.
Everyone of us below them now, raise your going rates for whatever you do to $1000/hour. See how they like it.
