I think it’s pretty naive to ask your employer for a day off. As experienced by companies, the market is more competitive than ever. Whoever slows down will get eaten by some hungry upstart that is willing to work 996 to eat the incumbent’s lunch. It’s a Prisoner’s Dilemma. The only way to get this outcome is to coordinate at a level higher than individual market participants. In other words, get your government to implement UBI - tax all companies (or if AI really takes off, just compute) and redistribute to the people. | ||

lol, this government is going to just throw anyone trying into the meat grinder. The only way to do this is to bypass the authorities. | ||
