AI advancements are shining a light on how warped our society has become. We _should_ invent technology to better our lives, but instead its become something to fear as it might destroy our livelihoods. I understand the threatening feeling AI brings, but rather than squashing innovation we should be rethinking the role of our economy, copyright, and intellectual property.

See manufacturing in the rust belt for an example of what happened in the last two decades when we moved to the knowledge worker economy without a plan for the workers.

I was hoping for the invention of a car, but all we got was a faster horse. Would anyone have been able to sell a car if faster horses were already clogging up the streets?
