A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I think that this is a very reasonable point on it's face, but the knife only ever seems to cut one way. Do you have an example of a business that has meaningfully grown due to AI instead of the deluge of layoffs that get printed in articles every day?
I think people are reacting to what they DO see in real life, and the idea that it COULD result in more jobs... only seems to show up in discussions. I'm obviously not asking for an example the same scale as all the tech companies laying off 100,000s of people and blaming AI, but whatever proof has informed your opinion would go a long way towards supporting your point in a way that debating can't.
