    Yeah, people say they don’t want AI driving cars while AI has better safety records than the average human.

    People also fought back against having machinery to automate production.

    You might want to look into the “Luddites.”

    I hope you can admit you’re wrong when the time comes, but I genuinely expect you to just pretend you never stuck your neck out in the first place.

      I think you should look at what the luddites actually were and not just how they were portrayed by capital

      Don’t act like a smug asshole while simultaneously admitting you’re replaceable at work, can’t draw, can’t drive and can’t think for yourself.

          Realistically, AI will continue to advance and will only stop when there’s another winter, although there will likely be protests, which will likely be history depending on their effectiveness in society.

          Something similar happened with the protests against the Apollo program; the programs are currently remembered more than the protesters.
