    First time I heard someone point out that it’s an issue with the employers. They want to replace you, ai is just the thing they’re replacing you with right now.

    That was one of the best answers I've ever heard from start to finish. 👏

    A very concise and thorough explanation of what the real concerns with Ai are, from a societal/economic standpoint. People seem to miss that the companies are the ones trying to save a buck by doing this and it isn't even ready for it yet.

    I’m so glad he pointed out how people’s copyrighted works are being stolen and there is no regard for intellectual property ☹️
    I hope this issue can be resolved in favor of the creative hard working people.

    YES!!! I am a computer scientist and I am not worried about AI going rogue, I’m worried about who the AI really answers to.
