Nope, the French knew what to do at the end of the 1700s.

The French Revolution reference is dark but fair. Altman keeps framing labor disruption as unsolved, but we saw this during industrialization. The Luddites weren't wrong about machinery displacing workers. The real question isn't whether AI will disrupt labor—it already is. It's whether we build institutions that share gains rather than concentrating them. Zeitgeist Experiment maps actual public opinion instead of algorithmic outrage, and people want guardrails not doomerism.
