    I know socialism ended badly but it sounds so damn sexy! The devil on my shoulder is offering a pitchfork and I’m like yes! Yes!

    If we wait around they are going to have armies of drones and robots and we won’t be able to burn down anything.

    I wanted this to be real, so badly, I had to reread it was The Beaverton a few times because I didn’t want to believe it was a Beaverton article.

    This may be satire but will become reality when AI really begins to take jobs away from millions of people. People may be underestimating what Ai and robots can do. The question is when people don’t have jobs or money where are businesses going to get sales and revenue from? When a dentist told me AI can almost replace him it is concerning. He said AI is able to scan your mouth for cavity and it tells hime where to drill to repair the cavity. He doesnt even have to look at xray etc. The only missing aspect he said was a robot to do the drilling.

  4. Why tech CEOs? They just made the product. They aren’t forcing anyone to fire you and replace you with AI. This is the same as the people who hate illegal immigrants but refuse to go after the businesses hiring them.
