alt Hacker NewsHave you seen the arrogance of artists? They acted as though they were above replacement, above automation. They acted as though they were superior.
We're all facing very hard times ahead of us, but I would be lying if I said it wasn't at least a little cathartic to watch this unfold. Programmers, too, were just as arrogant until only a few years ago. As were doctors, lawyers... The list goes on. How the mighty have fallen.
Now we just gotta allow AIs to replace all these lavishly compensated CEOs too. Now that'd be epic.
Do you see how this sort of hate-filled malevolence, as a pro-AI position, might make people less excited about AI?
A lot of people are looking at AI now and seeing that its proponents sound like cartoon villains. That sends a message.
