Getting mad at AI isn’t going to solve their problems but what other options do they have when they are cornered? How will they make a living when a share of the work they previously had is going to start being taken by AI?

This is an entire class of workers, all around the world, that will happen very suddenly with no safety net for them to fall on.

Can you at least try to put yourself in their shoes before calling an entire class of people dumb?

what should they do? I already said. they need to contact their local politicians and get them to move on things like UBI or some other social safety net.

this will continue to happen for ever job in every sector, art is just the tip of the spear in this coming wave of automation.

I understand and empathize believe me, but I know they weren't the first to fall to automation and they most certainly wont be the last.

how much crying did they do for all the warehouse workers who were automated away? how many "ban robots" posts did you see when they came for the car manufacturing jobs?

it sucks but its gonna happen to all of us...just a matter of time.
