True. AI is just the latest step in capitalism killing even more of humanity and nature and humanity’s nature in the endless pursuit of greed for the wealthy few.

All these people worried about AI, are just worried economically. Your skill is still yours, and your talent is genuine and irreplaceable. Let companies use AI. The free market will take care of it.

Not only that, the true value of artisan art, manually made by humans will skyrocket.

Vote with your wallet, don’t buy off companies that use AI.

Screw voting with your wallet; consumer-based solutions will never work. Unionize your workplace instead.

Unionize your workplace instead.

and how does that help? serious question, i have no idea. don't tell me to "read it up on the internet". how do unions help when the demand for human workers is decreasing?

Because workers, and not just bosses, will get a say in where, when, and how technology is introduced. That’s what the Hollywood writers’ strike was largely about, and they won important restrictions on the use of AI, as did the screen actors guild.
