Comment on If CEOs think they can replace everyone with AI, why do they think Wall St. will need CEOs?
DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz 8 hours agoHonestly, with adequate governance, companies would be required to submit reports on how much labor they’re doing using AI, and pay those wages to either their employees or to a sort of “Universal Income” fund to prop up families in poverty. It should be called the AI tax.
The problem is that, with the current state of affairs, asking for regulation from anyone is impossible, and also even if the law were enacted, getting the money from the companies to people who need it instead of the ultra-rich is a major hurdle.
But at the very least, I don’t think we should allow companies to simply cut down on human labor without also contributing economically to the employees they cut off.
I don’t think anyone is dying to fill in Excel spreadsheets or to write corporate emails. No one is complaining about AI doing those jobs, but about people who lost their livelihoods because of it.
