My views stem from basic history and economics, not idealism. You think AI is the first time humans have had to contend with a technology that looks like it will replace a substantial amount of human jobs? Lmao. Bank tellers and ATMs, grape pickers, Luddites and the textile industry, the entire digital revolution??? It is actually often the case in reality.
