Really great article to illustrate how cognitive bias can lead an author to really extreme positions that are pretty much the opposite of their professed politics. If the author were able to step back and drop the “everything the rich tech bros do is satanic” framing, he might see: * ChatGPT only threatens white collar workers. * Labor, retail, and other very hard working people who have been left behind by tech will soon have access to tools that are comparable or better than their management * ChatGPT isn’t waging anything, nor is it racist/etc. It has some awful training data and huge investment is going into mitigating that. How is this not exactly what many of us want to see for society in general (we’ve heard terrible things, we don’t repeat them)? * Within a couple of years, a resume, cover letter, future work product from marginalized and discriminated-against populations will be indistinguishable from those produced by historically privileged populations. The author is so determined to hate chatgpt that he misses the fact that it is democratizing not just knowledge but presentation.
