Did it though?
Nice irony. Yes, jobs are absolutely going away - which in the long run will be a good thing because people definitely won’t have to work as much. Also the economy is going to have to adapt, including the wealthy class not hogging everything while everybody else either works as much as possible or sleeps outside. The transition will be difficult because the wealthy mostly control the things that have to change - including their ability to convince the dumber people to be afraid of change - but like many other unpleasant inevitabilities, we can’t put this evolution off forever, and the longer we do, the tougher it will be. We can sponge and rinse the dishes now or soak and scrape them tomorrow.
Best we can do is a feudal tech oligarchy holding a gun to the head of an already dying world.
When has humanity ever been led by those who would choose the best outcome?
I loved this joke when Jon Stewart also made it.
They’re already starting an attack on FOSS (free open source software) with FB declaring Linux news/content a security threat .
The actual threat is to the for-profit golden geese and billionaire egos that just got dunked by a free alternative.

with FB declaring Linux news/content a security threat .
The best part is (according to someone here yesterday) FB runs on Linux.
A lot of AI is free, openAI, meta, Google, Apple, etc. all release free models for a wide variety of things, that you can download and run yourself, and have for years.
The thing with AI development is there will be a new top best in a month or two. It’s always changing, no one person or company is ‘winning’.
I will log in to twitter just to retweet this one
