And here's the nth example I've seen today of AI being used to ruin the fun jobs rather than automate the tedious ones.
Anyone telling you that “AI” is going to do anything but significantly destroy livelihoods and the creative fields is either A: Lying / stand to gain from their proliferation, B: Propagandized and/or so stupid they aren’t worth engaging with.
It’s exhausting but hey, you’re a “Luddite” if you disagree with these “tools.” Also loving the fact that half the tech dipshits spouting Luddite had never peaked at American labor history in their lives until taking pieces out of context benefits them. Trash people.
At this point "Luddite" is a compliment.
I mean... They were right about machinery replacing them and creating inferior goods. Now people are concerned that "AI" will replace them and create inferior works, which capitalists have been taking every opportunity to do.
Yeah, it is really just another step in the never-ending march of capitalism: People being replaced by machines owned by plutocrats in order to maximise their profits.
My conspiracy theory on this: part of me thinks its because if the corporate owners of America actually automate the boring jobs, then that means normal people would have time to finally relax and maybe realize how fucked up our country is, and also have the time to more effectively help worker movements.
But if you automate the fun and creative stuff like art, use AI tools to more or less break people… it’s easier to control a bunch of tired and sad people than it is to control people in a normal state.
