⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the aim of all the AI investment?⁩ ⁨⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
1. The business class has been promised they can cut workers and use AI instead, which has been their dream since forever.
2. AI has been shown to deskill workers. Experts lose their skills, new workers don’t gain new skills. Then the owners of AI can rent skills back to people at a profit.
3. If businesses can deskill and fire enough workers, they can take advantage to reinstate things like scrip and slavery.
You rightfully notice that AI isn’t useful enough for businesses to throw an entire civilization worth of money at because you’re thinking about it as a tool, but it’s not a tool, it’s a weapon. A weapon pointed at you and me.
