Google DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman warns AI is a ‘fundamentally labor replacing’ tool over the long term::Despite today’s AI hype, it’s still a “truly transformational” technology that will replace jobs unless policy steps in, Suleyman said.

    It sucks because it should be a good thing that it replaces labor. We could have more time to be humans.

    But instead, less labor = more money for the rich and more misery for the rest

      Its okay, if enough of us are left twiddling our thumbs we’ll find a place to jam them up. Oh what a good boy am I.

        Imagine how many thumbs could be jammed into us if we had time to.

      Tax the rich, (not taxing AI that would be stupid) and redistribute the money via UBI.

      Also reduce work week to 4 days and have mandatory overtime for working more than 32 hours a week. Work week to be reduced as ai replaces more jobs.

      Nobel please.
