This is why I am wondering why so many here do not fight in their own area of expertise against the establishment of new feudal AI overlords. It would be so easy.

If everyone lets these structures develop and does nothing, things will get worse. Wait how the suppression will be if Musk, Thiel, Altman and Amodei are your feudal lords that control your job.
