I support giving users the choice between AI and non-AI services and products.
But workers protesting the use of AI in their industries are dumb in my opinion.
AI is going to change a lot of industries forever and there is almost nothing workers and unions can do currently to actually stop the progress.
I even had seen some worker unions who are protesting AI use, accept working with companies that use AI and I support them, Because they won’t be taken seriously if they did not do that.
In short: I think workers should protest workers conditions and wages, rather than protesting technology.
AI adaptation is inevitable.
Sure, if there actually was a choice. The way things are currently going, you won’t have a choice because everyone is jumping on that train to shitsville.
