Muddy water is a small price to pay for AI to take away your job.
It’s a bit disingenuous to only report the negatives sides to this.
Sure, AI will take your job, pollute the environment and flood the internet with fake news to manipulate the population and make things worse for the ordinary citizen. But that’s just one side of the story, things are not as black and white as they are claimed to be.
Have you even considered the upside of this? AI will generate amazing short-term profits for the shareholders. They may even be able to buy a fifth home or a third yacht. If you put it like that, it suddenly doesn’t seem as bad, does it?
