#Capitalists understand and accept #Marx and his #economicTheory more than what they think or want to admit.
They know very well that #machines can't and don't create #profit. Only #humanlabour produces profit.

#Automation and #AI will #free #humans from certain kinds of #labour only when we abandon capitalism and the chase of profit.
