It should be a good thing but it won’t be under capitalism.

Best case scenario we either revolution everything before then or the singularity turns out to be communist.

the singularity is a myth made up by weird nerds. AI isn’t sentient is a masterfully marketed way of getting computers to do statistics

nerds really just make their whole philosophy and political ideology from their parasocial relationship with R2D2

thats how I view it too… but its also inevitable so it seems like instead of throwing a fit about AI automating our jobs we should be really throwing a fit about not having enough safety nets for that to be a good thing.

I do wonder what capitalists plan on doing when most everything is automated though. Its only a matter of time and that gives people A LOT of time to sharpen their guillotines.

i worry they can’t wait until full automation so they can brutally exterminate us. some of these people think they are a different species.
