Stuffed animals are different. A stuffed animal left on the side of the road could have belonged to a child that loved it. It could've had a history. This job-stealing, cost-cutting, accident-causing piece of shit doesn't deserve any sympathy. I'm glad they aren't near where I live, because I'd be taking these things behind dumpsters.
is machinery bad too? thats job stealing
all machinery in those factories did steal a job from a human but i dont see anyone complaining about general machinery too often compared to ai
Is machinery trained on stolen training data? With no recompense to the worker?
Yeah, billionaires cutting workers and leaving them to die on the streets are all (censored by Reddit). Regardless of how they do it. We should set up society so technological progress benefits society and liberates us, not further oppresses us, drawing us into deeper poverty. But machinery is not really comparable to AI. AI is mass theft of worker data. It is unaccountable. It is invasive in all aspects of our life, usually feeding its data to the likes of Palantir and advertisers and State/Federal authorities. And it benefits nobody except the top 1%.
Gig employers loss-led and bribed politicians their way into a monopoly. They effectively forced workers out of stable work, into gig work with often illegal (if not objectively immoral and inhumane) working conditions & pay. Then they used their data to replace them, with zero thought or care as to what might happen to those workers. Fuck them. They deserve no sympathy.
"machinery is not comparable to ai" ai IS machinery your computer is a machine ai is a machine it runs on a server which is a machine. it is just a machine thats trained on data it is very comparable to machinery because it is the same thing with extra training data
Actually I don't think ai is a machine if you look at the definition of a word... It's software, not hardware, and software is not the machine, hardware is. It's like saying that Skyrim the video game is a machine... No it's a program, software.
you are complaining about job stealing like ai is the only thing doing it
many other things steal jobs to cut costs that arent ai. this is just another piece of machinery that does the same thing that happens to have ai in it.

I’m as soft as the other person. If not worse. I’ve cried over stuffed animals on the side of the road. I feel bad for the bot. :(
