      You’re not wrong, but your aggressive wording will surely alienate anyone who otherwise would’ve had a chance of learning something new or changing their mind. People don’t generally respond well to snark nor a condescending tone.

      And this is a real issue, because companies and fascists are good at telling relatable stories to win people to their side. If we want to have any chance at fighting back, we must utilize the same tools they’re using, instead of calling people stupid and thus driving them away.

      Honest question, do you think this post will change anyone’s mind about anything? I see a lot of aggressive posts like this that will only further divide but hey at least you’ve inflated your own ego in the process right? Go get some fresh air, I think you might need the oxygen.

      This is a moment in history like Ford releasing the Model T. The horseshoe industry took a massive hit, as did anything related to horse transportation. The winners saw it happening and pivoted themselves.

      Right now, one person with AI that makes prompts replaces an art department. Gig work will dry up as many people learn to ask ChatGPT to write their excel macros, instead of hiring it out. Audio engineers can be replaced with one person doing QA in some finished products.
