"Sounds like a problem for next quarter" - shareholders and CEOs

@DTFauxClassic

One thing that's often overlooked in these discourses is that, historically, one doesn't want a populous that feels they have nothing left to lose. Because they'll eventually turn their attention towards the people with the disproportionate amount of wealth and power. And both of those things only hold value so long as people believe in them.

Assuring worker's rights, fair pay, and quality of life isn't solely for the sake of doing the right thing... It's also for the sake of self-preservation.

AI is more suited to replacing CEOs than plumbers. An AI CEO requires no salary, no bonuses, no office, and can work 24 hours a day 7 days a week. An AI CEO never gets sick, never takes vacation, and requires no health insurance.

@CatsMeowPaw

Every company will play the race to the bottom game:  Our competitors are using AI to reduce costs, so we must do the same.  Literally no one is asking who the customer will be if masses are unemployed because the thinking is still 'well, someone else will buy it'

@streetstroller

Don't know why AI is such a big deal when most CEOs could be replaced by a six sided die or magic 8 ball.

@intothebeyond8763

CEO's never think that far ahead ....Which is why we keep having financial crises every 10-11 years.

@TheJMBon

Mass unemployment, poor food security and desperate people who feel like they have nothing left to lose is how governments are toppled and society radically transformed.

@BOSSDONMAN

The masses are growing increasingly aware to all this, yet the media will gaslight us with,"Why aren't people having kids?!?"

@bloopbloopbigback

So basically the system is just going to turn into a circle jerk of rich people scamming each other until theres only 1 ultimate scammer left 😂

@jdg7327

It is often said that "People need to work in order to eat"
But I've read in a novel somewhere that "People need to eat in order to work"

It may seem the same, but the emphasis is not.

what a nice period to be a young adult

@samr.england613

Even before AI and able robots, it's simple: If I don't have money to spend beyond reality bills (mortgage, rent, power, water, car insurance, food, etc,.) I CAN'T BUY WHATEVER IT IS YOU'RE SELLING! Over 2,300 years ago, Alexander the Great understood that wealth should not be hoarded, but circulated. And robots don't buy cars or hamburgers.

"Achieving short term profits every quarter results in long term profits." - Literally every CEO...right before they announce they need a bailout.

@saxor96

The thing with the videogame market is that" whales" aren't exactly just a bunch of rich people playing. They're also a lot of people with gambling addiction playing games specifically designed to exploit their weaknesses like an unregulated casino would, and sink them into financial ruin.

Born to soon to see the galaxy,
Born just in time to be unemployed.

@bradleyjohnson6107

Imagine the millions saved if an entire executive team is replaced by AI. If you think about it, all executives are really payed to do is sit around and think strategically, what does this better than AI?

@greg6500

"Investors are real excited about replacing workers" We sacrifice EVERYTHING to keep these assholes happy like we need them.

@nickstonehenge

Modern management: 
work at company 
Ruin company
Quit after 3 years
Go to next company
Rinse and repeat
