Hi people, Everybody is afraid of losing their jobs right now. But actually, i think: we are not really afraid of AI, we are afraid of our economic system. In an age of a highly competitive economy, AI means a massive leap in productivity. Which is a good thing, actually. But not within the specific system we are part of at this moment in history. If we are honest; we intuitively know that merciless competition will not use this leap in productivity to share the benefits equally among the population. We experienced such productivity leaps before and we know, that it does not mean also a wealth leap for the majority I think we are trapped in measuring our human value solely by our utility. But the key here is that we have another value, one that is currently overlooked and must be regained by us: Responsibility. Because no matter how much better or faster an AI can execute the work, it cannot be held responsible. It has no skin in the game. That is why humans will remain vital. Our true value will lie in our ability to bear responsibility, to stand behind a product or service, and to be held accountable if things go wrong. Because the world will still work through human relationships, consequences and responsibilities. Those who are willing to take the risk and carry that responsibility will still be paid in the future, perhaps even better than ever. submitted by /u/Most_Echidna1477
