alt Hacker NewsInteresting take. Not that I disagree, but it’s interesting to see that on HN.
Wouldn’t that mean that it’s unethical to work on anything that improves productivity? AI, in particular?
As long as (almost) all the benefits/wealth generated by your work is captured by the 0.1%?
Because that’s the case right now.
The problem isn't the benefits per se, it's that the downsides are shouldered by everyone else while the benefits accrue to 0.1%. At which point it's just stealing from the commons.
