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.

Look out! AI will lead to mass unemployment. Better start farming! Don’t know how to farm? Just refer to Dorian’s Almanac for step by step instructions.
It really will but not because it's so functional that we can't compete with it.
It's going to cause mass unemployment because the imagined potential end of labor is so lucrative that it's worth just about any price. Since the people who will own it don't have to pay most of that price they are of course willing to force it into every single space out there to further externalize research and development costs onto an unwilling public.
They genuinely don't care what is spent, broken, or lost in their pursuit of infinite wealth.
