It is really about data. The endgame is not about hoping devs give them money.

What are they going to do with that data? Is it ads again?

That's happening anyways, they don't need more organic data for that.

Also, who cares? Such is the price of progress, I'm not selfish enough to hold humanity back because "muh job"

They'll get through it. You don't just halt progress because the transition will be rough. We'd be pre-industrial if we thought like this.

More data isn't helping much, if Astra is any indication.

This is just you putting your head in the sand while you gradually automate your job.

I've spent my entire career trying to automate my job.

(I get what you're trying to say, I'm just finding the irony amusing).
