    Better tools didn’t put carpenters out of business, it made less skilled labor seem faster and better at their jobs. This caused labor rates to go down, quality of work to go down, overall cost to go down, overall prices stayed the same or went up, manufacturing of tools created jobs and better tools created jobs.

    Better tools had consequences, but “AI” is literally replacing humans with the goal of replacing humans and tracking the ones that are still working. “AI” is being built for Execs and those in power to eliminate employees while increasing control over everyone.

    It’s “progress”, so people doing tedious jobs that could be automated should fear for their jobs, they will be the first to go. The IT desk at my employer has already been cut to 1/3 of what it used to be.

      Your post is riddled with so many randomly interjected false statements its wild.

      You’ve built your paragraphs on top of a foundation riddled with holes.

      If you actually believe half of what you just said, I have to assume you have literally zero experience with carpentry lol.
