That’s the difference, isn’t it? People can use “AI” to make simple little things easier. Corporations want it to replace and automate the jobs of swathes of the workforce. It’s the latter that is the “growth market”, and the one that eats the most power.
That wouldn’t be so bad per se… Many improvements in human conditions have been achieved by automating stuff and kicking people out. Think of the green revolution.
The problem is that the use case here is to massify the production of literal removed, like clickbaity articles on social media content, or ever larger volumes of advertisement. Those jobs don’t need to be replaced, they just need to go away for good.
Are we really going to use an AI to write motivation letters from a list of bullet points, to send it to an HR that will condense it into a list of bullet points using AI? Seriously?
