- watwut 29d agoActually, no. Actually most people do not want everyone else to be jobless or suffer etc. There are subgroups who enjoy harm to others, but most dont.
- EdiX 29d agoDo most people buy their airplane tickets at a physical travel agent? Do they do most of their shopping at physical stores? Do they send paper mail instead of email or messages? Do they worry about buying from assembly lines that are least mechanized? Do they buy a car or take a horse carriage? It isn't about hurting others, it's about convenience and price.
- watwut 28d ago> they want them to replace other peoples jobs. This is literally what was said. There was nothing about "convenience", but there were words about "wanting others to loose the jobs". On the other hand, AI people cheer when someone looses their job. They use it as brag point. Very literally. And "obsolete humans" and "permanent underclass" are selling points of AI. In reality, in cases you write about, people did changed jobs. These techs did not caused mass unemployemnt.
