The system spent 50 years squeezing every drop of value out of human labor, broke the social contract, and is now shocked that humans are opting out or demanding more, so they're turning to AI as a last ditch Hail Mary to keep the machine running, without fixing the machine.
The actual economy is held together by:
Underpaid essential workers
Gig workers living out of their cars
Immigrant labor doing jobs nobody else will
People working two jobs just to afford a studio apartment
The dollar has lost 98% of its value since 1971.
The social contract is in ICU.
Corporations are begging AI to save them from the mess they made.
So, you wanna change the system, but your hyped about Ai....🤣
The irony is almost too perfect....
"Revolutionaries" who want to burn down the old, centralized system are singing the praises of the very tech that might just be the most potent tool for automating and controlling that same system they want to burn down....
