    You’re still working simultaneously with dozens of different organizations? Maybe I’m misunderstanding something.

    Stopping or stalling productivity improvements is stupid, that job is effectively useless if it can be automated, it’s nothing more than make-work to keep it. We should pass laws to redistribute wealth to solve that problem, not keep them in useless jobs by preventing automation.

    Like a lot of things, the devil is in the details. Almost everyone’s firsthand experience with consultants coming in and enacting “efficiency” is that it’s bad for both the employees obviously, but also bad for the business. I’m not saying that’s the impact of what you’re doing, just what most people’s experience is going to be.

    So there’s a central question in AI: Once the machines can do everything for us, does that mean everyone eats for free? Or no one eats? What would your answer to that question be?

        That’s what I’m saying and people call me radicalised for that 😅

      No, I have worked with a dozen or so organizations, but I’ve done multiple jobs for each. I’m a freelancer.

      As for your second question, I’d like to see a basic income implemented for all citizens in my country. I’ve talked to my local politicians about it multiple times. It’s something that people now know about, which is good progress in my opinion. I don’t expect it to happen soon, but hopefully we’ll get there before we start to have too many social problems.

      Yes.

      Everyone eats for free… but the machines don’t need to eat, so why produce any food at all. That soy and corn getting used to feed caged animals for human consumption? Turn it into biofuel to power the machines. The hordes of hungry protestors?.. more biofuel.
