We might already be seeing the early stages of this in some industries like fast food and with the Hollywood strikes.

It's not even a might, we are absolutely seeing the early stages of this. The dark age will also involve vast amounts of misinformation and just plain bad information spewed out by AI writing tools because they're great at that, which will make it more and more difficult to find true information about anything. We're going to be snowed in by a pile of AI garbage, and it will happen faster than anyone is prepared for because speed and amplification are the whole point of these tools.

The best outcome so far is that this issue is prompting more workers to unionize.
