It's technology putting people out of work.

We care a lot about Copilot, we care somewhat about artists, we care little about manual workers, and less so if they are in another country.

Not quite. It still relies on their inputs. It doesn't just put them out of work, it feeds off them.

I'm not sure of what I'd call this relationship, but parasitic is close to it.

It’s a teacher-student relationship, except the teachers don’t do anything specifically for the students. Let our jobs be taken by Copilot. Are you that afraid?
