       “I was shovelling dirt using a shovel and wheelbarrow. My neighbour saw me and suggested getting an excavator. So I did. Job was easy after that. And that’s why I use AI in my digital marketing because it’s just a better tool”…..the….fuck?

       This talk went from largely banal to giving me a head injury.

       AI will make a whole lot of work redundant. But it won’t mean job losses! Promise!My sweet summer child. You’re either lying or living in a state of ignorance that I could only dream of.

       @MattHatton My hope is that we realise that some work *is* redundant, and so we actually just have to start paying people who don't work. Maybe there aren't enough jobs and that's fine?

       @evcricket @MattHatton hahahahahahahahahahahahahaUnfortunately, as much as universal basic income is a great idea, you only need to look at the pushback even the most basic social security net gets in capitalist countries to know that's never gonna fly.

       @Haikyoneko @MattHatton I think *never* is a long time. And when we have 30% unemployed or whatever society and their responses will look very different.

       @Haikyoneko @MattHatton Even some self-aware billionaires are starting to realise that they need the proles to be happy.
