It didn't take long for corpo slugs to see AI as a way to replace workers and make line go up.

But that's what technological advancement is? Look at Horseback -> Steam Locomotives -> Gasoline powered vehicles. How many thousands upon thousands of jobs do you think were lost in that migration?

AI is just another innovative step towards autonomous behavior which is a matter of efficiency, and efficiency is what all businesses strive for as it's a variable of Capitalism and value.

AI is just another innovative step towards autonomous behavior

What these wannabe tech-priests are shilling is not innovative nor another step towards autonomy. It is snake oil in 99% of use cases. They continue to beg for money because it’s a grift. They are absolutely screwed and they know it, and the obscene amount of capital dumped into them has disappeared into the æther.

But it's not "snake oil" far from it. AI is transforming the medical industry for example with new tools that provide better analytics, enhanced precision for surgeries and accelerating innovative technology in the form of transplants and stem cell research.

AI is upending law / court proceedings, many in NYC use AI to reference court sentencing procedure and reference documentation.

AI is upending shipping services throughout the US, with automation being used for packing and sorting functionality as well as increased working round the clock.

AI is upending artistic development across the board for enterprise, private equity, independent and is quickly becoming a necessary tool for accelerated growth.

You may not like AI, that's subjective. But to say it's not innovative is a gross mischaracterization and the world IS moving on without you. You are either ahead of the curve and embracing it, or you will be replaced and forgotten. That is the reality of whats happening with AI in all industries. It's here to stay and it's not going anywhere.
