- specialist 1y agoAuthor Ted Chiang is the only celebrity AI kibitzer pundit I wholly agree with. Paraphrasing: Capital will use / is using AI to further bludgeon Labor.

- thfuran 1y agoWell, clearly he should stick to physics. Even if it's likely that AI would replace them soon, a lot of people would likely die unnecessarily if we ran overly low on radiologists by ending the pipeline too soon. They're already overworked and that can only go so far. It's not a bet we should make.
