As per usual, money thinks of a human as a commodity for sale, not a neighbour being exploited or livelihood being stripped.

If you think throwing life into a black box and consuming its results will improve productivity and enhance creativity. You're forgetting the only thing we feed this thing is 'results'. You're drinking the piss from a million artists and thinking it's fresh water. Eventually this filtered, censored source of creativity is creating for AI and not humans because humans quit being a source of material and nothing more than a requester.

The short sightedness of believing you can commodify the human spirit is the most incredulous shit I've ever seen.

Self driving cars are far more impactful on employment and livelihoods of lower income and independent workers.

And seemingly harder to reach non-monopoly/oligopoly solutions.

I don't play football unless the goalposts remain stationary.

How wonderful it might be to be able to have tickets to both a conventional game of football and an imagined one where goalposts move around.

Paying people to move goalposts is expensive, and it might turn out to be a flop, but you could do both with Sora cheaply, and even make it into an interactive movie which, something impossible with conventional read only films.
