i saw a post that said, ‘oh, who will be working if ai takes all jobs?’ then i saw another post saying ‘the ai capitalists best interests is to have as many workers as possible so they have the most profit in the ai era’'. my brother in christ the latter is most likely true. the same logic applies to horsecarts. since we invented the motor car i am now travelling more than i ever than I would on a horse, and further than ever for more tasks. my brother in christ I am working more than ever with AI. we cant find enough people to fill out gaps at the offices. if you been let go or heard of this due to ‘ai’ just know any excuse other than ai they would have used instead. i am a data scientist programmer and clinical psyche using opus 4.6 with chat gpt 5.4 and codex in microsoft vs code fo literally run entirely self autinomous system and for it to work autonomously and as a user, it fucks up bad. still hallucinates. and is shit and its now 90% deugging 10% coding instead of 10% debugging, 90% coding. So even though i can create ‘apps’ at home i still spend the same money on the business costs just the priority of tasks have changed. EVEN more time wasting now. tl;dr we will be working more than ever, ai is a capitlism problem not a ‘it will outsmart us’ problem for that will never be relevant. i use these tools to design apps and they are horrendous and its cheaper to use an engineer (the programming world KNOWS these tokens are discounted currently and will cost tens of thousands for the same task in the future) so its marketing hype. do you REALLY think all of human labour is done when AI could (in a parralel universe or if an einstein level miracle happens) become a reality? like really? do actually think work will ‘cease’? whats your thoughts? submitted by /u/Llamaseacow
