I know deep down the AI thing will eventually grow out of control and probably have extreme economic effects that aren't exactly great.
But everytime I hear someone crying about "muh labor" being taken by AI, its the most unsympathetic person possible whose spent years laughing at every problem I've had. And now they want us to care about their easy life getting less cushy, and kneecap ourselves to give them more money instead of having the means of production in our hands.
I noticed the same thing, artists on the left and right are concerned about the effects of AI but only the ones on the left are screeching about their artwork being stolen and how we need new laws against AI. The ones on the right are figuring out how they can pivot to take advantage of the newly forming economy.
I think it's a good example of how the left and right differ on pattern recognition / experience.
The left think if they control the AI, then they'll have the upper hand socially, and get to decide who gets the cushy jobs and who gets protected. They aren't thinking about money, just hierarchy.
The right know that if you handicap AI for a situation like this, that China, Japan, Russia, will just continue business as usual, and end up with the economic advantage.
