    i like to point out that companies are using ai to be a boogeyman to distract you. take every article tou read and remove ai from the text or replace it with automation/algorithm.

    even the jobs. 5 years ago it was “company lays off 10000 employees” response was “fuck management” – today they are doing the same thing but add “because ai” and everyone now says “fuck ai”.

      Yeah, most of the analysis I have seen has shown job losses due to AI have amounted to less than 1% of job losses in the US. Most of the losses are because of… just look at the White House. Easier to blame AI than actually admit politics is causing some serious issues.

      I think it is very much both. I think that many people being clubbed and beaten by this AI stick know that someone’s swinging it.
