Are we surprised by this bankruptcy. As neat as AI is, it is only a thing because the corporate class see it as a way to reduce margins by replacing people with it. The whole concept is bankrupt.
The only surprise here is that they didn’t think she’d push back. That is what completes the multilayered cosmic and dramatic irony of this whole vignette. Honestly feels like Shakespeare or Arthur Miller might have written it.
Problem is they really believe we either can't tell the difference between a human and an AI model eventually, or they think we don't care. Don't they understand the meaning of art?
That is wrong on several levels. First off, it ignores the role of massive researchers. Should we start de-automating processes to employee more people at the cost of worsening margins?
