Recent scare stories obscure the fact that the risk posed by artificial intelligence is most likely to come from its misuse by the powerful

It’s not wrong, but 2024 should have made it ABUNDANTLY clear that most people, at least in the US, are thick, ignorant morons who are ABSOLUTELY incapable of identifying, or even recognizing politically dangerous power grabs even when they are slapped directly in the face with them.
Job loss is just one of the issues, but it’s the ONLY one that MIGHT pierce their thick, cavernous skulls.
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for my other response to read like it does!
Every time I hear someone mourn the loss of menial fast food jobs and shit to AI, my brain looses another 5000 cells. Missing the point. You are missing the whole fucking point. I’d rather you be pro-AI so I could just tell you to fuck off and think no more of it.
AI isn’t getting rid of the menial jobs, is the thing. It’s just intensifying the exploitation of workers.
Burger King has an AI that will watch you and discipline you if you don’t smile. That’s what AI means for fastfood workers.
Guess this is coming to pass:

Seemed like a pretty well reasoned comment to me. Nowhere in there did they talk about the loss of menial jobs specifically.
Omg I just realized how my comment comes off. I was saying “you” as in “hypothetical person who thinks this way” fuck
I’m trying to agree with that comment, while adding that yeah, its often the only thing that gets through their skulls, and it ticks me off too. There are so many other (and frankly more important) reasons that “generative” AI is horrible.
Don’t worry… I understood what you meant.
