I think it's fair to feel bad for how AI is going to eat all of our lunches (either now or 5min from now).

But at the end of the day, you either accept it or pitch an alternative. What's the alternative? Freeze tech advancement at 2020's tech in your country? At what expense, and for what gain?

The guillotine will be the alternative if we don't figure out how society is going to function and distribute resources when there is minimal demand for human labor.

Sure. But it's not the responsibility of every individual who builds a lil AI tool to solve that.

And there may be no viable solution except for the one that we JIT at the last possible second like humanity always does for everything.
