They arr complaining about a future where there wont be jobs. but to be clear all these big layoffs have been cyclicaland they used ai to get investors excited.

but just like all advances, any job that goes away is replaced by something new.

the biggest problem we have is the head of open ai is the biggest ai doomer.

he tells everyone that ai will destroy us all but its coming so better embrace it.

i am not a doomer and i am not an ai worshipper. i tjink there will be disruption but it wont be the end.

unlike the industrial revolution, there hasnt been bombings yet.
