AI society is going to be:

- you, chained on your sofa, watching ads "tailored-made by AI for you"

- weaponized robots roaming the streets to ensure everyone is "at work" and not "at leisure activities"

- "no need to vote", of course, because "AI already knows what's good for you"...

Why don’t we go out in the streets and protest? Like the french did some centuries ago. If only we stop using instagram, youtube, if we stop searching in google, if we ditch claude, openai, for a couple of days… the billionaries will notice it and get hurt. That would be like a warning from our side

But I thought everyone was going to lose their jobs...

		No, you see, if you lose your job you are poor. And in America, the poor don't deserve leisure. And any work they do has to be as punishing as possible, no matter how little effect that cruelty has on the bottom line If there's no work to do, we can always invent more work. We just have to figure out who pays for it. Enjoying life is for those "communist" Europeans /s

Nah, the weaponized robots don't need to ensure you're working. They need to ensure you're either watching advertisements or working!

Obviously, if you're a child you can't work, so you need to be advertising fodder.
