the worst part is that by this description AI is not really changing things. It seems to me the industry was always headed that way and AI is maybe speeding it up if anything at all.
These are rarely "AI problems".
Yes, the mainstream is quick to use AI as a scapegoat because their frogs have been thoroughly boiled by corporate profiteering, which is the real problem.
This is true - at the end of the day it's just the age old struggle of maintaining humanity in face of modernism. Apollonian versus Dionysian, John Henry versus the steam drill.
What's worrying me is that humanity appears to be losing ground fast, and that AI not only speeds up the process but makes fighting back even harder.
