I am not going to purposefully waste human life on tasks that machines could perform or help us be faster at just because late capitalism doesn't let me, the worker, reap the value from them.

It removes human labor

On a bigger scale we had the loom, the printing press, the steam engine the computer. Imagine if we'd refused them

I can't see us get ensnared into some neu dark age propelled by some "i need to keep my job" status quo just because we found ourselves with a moronic economic system that makes innovations bad news for the workers it replaces

If it takes AI taking away our livelihoods to get a chance to rework this failing doctrine so be it

I'm not talking communism I'm barely hoping for an organic response to it, likely a UBI
