Most people don't want to pay for AI. So they are building stuff that costs a lot for a market that is not willing to pay for it. It is mostly a gimmick for most people.

And like, it's not even a good gimmick. It's a serious labour issue because the primary intent behind a lot of AI has always been to just phase out workers.

I'm all for ending work through technological advancement and universal income, but this definitely wasn't going to get us that, so....

Well, why would I support something that mostly just threatens people's livelihoods and gives even more power to the 0.1%?
