Who could have possibly foreseen this? /s

It's almost like when these AI CEOs constantly tell their investors how they're going to make everyone homeless and jobless, then all the workers start taking them seriously and seeing them as the threat that they are.

As I have posted before:

There are only 2 ways the worker-capitalist contradiction can ever be solved:

communism, where the abundant fruits of automation are distributed evenly among all, ala fully automated luxury communism

exterminism (from Peter Frase’s book Four Futures), where the capitalists finally fulfill their dream of automating everything and can genocide all the unneeded workers.

It’s quite important we bring about revolution before option 2 becomes viable.
