I’ll openly admit that I’m a cynical person but I’ll believe economic revolution when I see it.
The advent of the personal computer also caused lots of huge proclamations of computers doing our jobs while we sit back in sun loungers sipping drinks. Yet somehow, here we are.
The people in charge of the AI systems are the same (class-wise at least) as those in charge of the economy so there’s no incentive to rock the boat. I expect AI to be something similar: it’ll change the way many jobs work, hopefully for the better. But people will still be working in sweatshops making clothes because it’ll still be cheaper than the alternative.
- gremlinsinc 4y agoBut do you equate AI to the advent of: A. The internet? B. Electricity? C. The wheel? Personally, it's somewhere between the wheel and electricity in my opinion, or a combination of the industrial revolution/assembly lines and electricity. How much did the wheel revolutionize society?
