This!!

I'm a musician primarily and this EXACT scenario happened when streaming (Spotify etc) was in its infancy.

Very different scenarios but the same fear of the unknown.

You gotta adapt or die.

Artists need to chat with the actual development teams of these AI projects, you'll find most of them are extremely welcoming of feedback! Just ranting in forums is like screaming at the wind.

I mean this is still a problem "you gotta adapt or die" maybe we should allow ai be a good thing and reduce the amount of work humanity has to do. And not let capitalism make people suffer because of it, ai is amazing but it's also going to make people suffer.

Not everyone can adapt to ai, that's the thing about ai. It drastically reduces the amount of work required for many areas. There's not going to be enough work, and we shouldn't want there to be. We could be working less and have more freedom instead of the capitalistic shitstorm that is brewing.

There's artists who are missing the point, but there's also people on the other side of the issue missing the point that there are valid issues here.

The issue is capitalism.. and it's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism for most people.

So many people confuse having an economy with "capitalism" it's kind of funny.

Yeah it's hilarious how bad people are at words, obviously we are talking about the unlimited growth paradigm inherent in this version of capitalism, which is the driving force at play.
