@gvwilson not exactly. It's another industrial revolution. Do we really want people doing mundane, repetitive work that machines can do? Isn't there any better kind of work we can offer them?

@gvwilson not sure why people don't understand this, but they need to. Fast.

@gvwilson I'm just tired, man. There's only so many times I can explain this, or you can just passively watch it unfold and do absolutely nothing. Your call.

@gvwilson honestly, I don't even care any more. Laissez les bons temps rouler

@gvwilson (protip: the actual solution is exactly what we're working on GMI -- Guaranteed Minimum Income.)

@codinghorror @gvwilson I love the idea of UBI/GMI, but the same crowd pursuing AI to eliminate workers, cheering as they try to gut social security and medicaid are gonna somehow suddenly get behind paying for ppl just to live. ?

@slashdottir @gvwilson it really doesn't matter to me; if we need to form two different countries to make it work, then let's fucking GO

@codinghorror @slashdottir @gvwilson I don't know who you are, but you sound just like Musk. Egotistic billionaire with God complex.
Go find yourself facts about how industrial revolution "released" people from mundane jobs.
