0.8*harm < 0.81*harm - hope this helps! Also, the core point is about people being able to find meaning in their work. That you've decided to laser in on this specific point to go on a tangent of whattaboutism is largely irrelevant. Have a nice day.

The fact is that most of the 3-4 billion+ people on earth don’t “find meaning in their work” and they only work because they haven’t overcome their addiction to food and shelter. If the point was irrelevant to your argument, why make it?

  I didn't actually make the point initially. I was challenging the reply's point that: a) just because some people are miserable at work, doesn't mean we shouldn't care that other people might become miserable at work b) Someone saying they prefer their food to be made without suffering is clearly a hypocrite in all cases because... there are miserable people in fast food jobs? I mean... really. Come on now.

    People who work in fast food may not be “passionate” about their job. But they aren’t “suffering”. You aren’t relieving anyone’s “suffering” by not eating fast food or even if there was no fast food. They aren’t “suffering” anymore than people working at the grocery store. Cry me a river for software developers (been delivering code professionally for 30 years and before that as a hobbyist) because now we have something that makes us more efficient.

      I don't know if you're intentionally being obtuse or you just failed third grade reading comprehension, but can you please go argue with the people actually making these points (rather than me, a random person who has replied to them)?

        So exactly what point are you trying to make? That software developers - at least the employed ones - “are suffering” because of AI? That you don’t eat fast food because you believe the employees are being exploited? What exactly is your point?
