So you... weren't... asking genuinely. You already came to a conclusion and just wanted to argue.

Even if it's "secretly" #2 for most people, is that even unreasonable?

It's so bizarre to me that people are acting like a supposedly existential threat on their livelihood is not a reasonable complaint or fear. Historically people, like, behead other people for that.

I don't know, I'm older so I have much less fear about my livelihood but I can't blame young people for being worried about it. And, if they are, for choosing not to use AI. In a way, you could argue that using AI is self-destructive.

The idea that building a hive machine world of ultimate efficiency is a moral imperative greater than creating a good and fair life for the living people of the world is psychotic. We could of course use AI to benefit everyone, but it's so incredibly obvious to everyone that's not going to happen and its hand waved. That's insulting.

You're putting a lot of words in my mouth.

I shared my assumption.

I asked the question to get a real perspective from someone who was already sharing. I didn't know their answer before I asked and still don't.

Also I never said #2 was unreasonable. And I don't blame anyone for being fearful either.

But there is an anti-tech sentiment on this tech site, and I find ironic and disappointing.
