Comment on Sam Altman Says If Jobs Gets Wiped Out, Maybe They Weren’t Even “Real Work” to Start With
MangoCats@feddit.it 1 month agothis issue is impossible to discuss without conflating it with general economics and wealth imbalance
It’s not conflating, the two issues are inextricably linked.
General economics and wealth imbalance can be addressed with or without the chaos of AI disrupting the job market. The problem is: chaos acts to drive wealth imbalance faster, so any change like AI in the jobs market is just shaking things up and letting more people fall through the cracks faster.

Everything is “linked” - your point is moot.

The real thing most people are trying to hold onto is stability, because chaos benefits the powerful. AI is just the latest agent of chaos, from their perspectives.

Weird take.

Instead of calling it chaos, call it losing their jobs - being forced to move hundreds of miles if they want to earn decent money again…
