It's always the most mediocre people who are worried about AI replacing them or taking their jobs or becoming sentient and/or murderous.

@evacide - hmmm... are they really the "most mediocre" people, though? where are you ranking people brazenly passing off AI as their own work?

for example, this person: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/05/lawyer-cited-6-fake-cases-made-up-by-chatgpt-judge-calls-it-unprecedented/

maybe they weren't mediocre enough to be fearful? or maybe mediocre leaves enough space for "objectively bad at their job"... i guess i could go either way.
