 Well good news then; this generation of AI is an overhyped nothingburger. It’s not going to displace shitloads of workers, it’s not going to become sentient, and you won’t have to have anything to do with it if you don’t want.

Hopefully it is used for massive energy and DC buildouts though - Bitcoin can go and use that infrastructure once the AI bubble bursts. Let them take the heat and burn the capital. 
 Oh it'll put plenty of people out of a job at today's level...businesses will trade off quality for cost (they already are, they have to in this economic environment)

Also...good luck dealing with roko's basilisk 😉
