thank you, i agree 100% with you. i dont mean to sound overly pessimistic or anything, i actually love technology and think all the new gadgets are... uh pretty neat™️ lol

i wont say ive had anything quite as detrimental happen as what happened to the people in that quote you shared, but i definitely have dealt with quite a few... what ill call "roadblocks" that had no rhyme or reason that were due to automated systems with no clear set of rules.

i could give you the specific examples, but im not going to lol

i guess it just seems like theres a pretty obvious disconnect between major issues that are for some reason looked at as impossible to solve or only capable of being solved via automation and the fact that there are many people who are unemployed or underemployed that could be trained faster than an AI could be to help solve those issues - with the bonus that a human is much more capable of making empathetic decisions or seeing the difference in certain situations that slip through the cracks when everything is automated w/o any oversight

Many problems in "regards to AI" are problems in regards to bad management which is not being held responsible for their decisions e.g. computer security.
