A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I think that's the obvious implication of this question, but you're missing the implied question arising from that answer: is this a problem we want to solve in this way ?

Yes? But it's the same problem as all automation - the majority of the surplus goes to the business owner, not the workers.

In a better society, we'd be saying "hooray, now I'll have more free time!"
