"“Back when I had a job I never would’ve had the free time to organize an unruly rabble and march towards the beach house of (Open AI CEO) Sam Altman. But now I’m getting so much more violent retribution accomplished in a day.”"

AI job losses free up time for unemployed mobs to burn down tech CEO‘s houses

I DO NOT want to come across as encouraging or condoning this sort of thing, however if people are going to, perhaps they should take the time to buy what they need for this, from the small, local, hardware (or other) store rather than from Amazon (who like most huge companies) are also replacing workers with AI.

Small shops tend to value their employees better for a start.
