Yeah sure, enjoy that glue pizza.
If my surgeon was booting up chat gpt I'd just euthanize myself to save them the trouble.
Yeah, people say they don't want AI driving cars while AI has better safety records than the average human.
People also fought back against having machinery to automate production.
You might want to look into the "Luddites."
I hope you can admit you're wrong when the time comes, but I genuinely expect you to just pretend you never stuck your neck out in the first place.
I think you should look at what the luddites actually were and not just how they were portrayed by capital
Why?
Don't act like a smug asshole while simultaneously admitting you're replaceable at work, can't draw, can't drive and can't think for yourself.
🥱
Yeah figures you'd have to use an emoji ha ha
Here's a wrench for you: the Luddites were 100% right

Realistically, AI will continue to advance and will only stop when there's another winter, although there will likely be protests, which will likely be history depending on their effectiveness in society.
Something similar happened with the protests against the Apollo program; the programs are currently remembered more than the protesters.

It's an interesting topic if you research it, because AI has been around since the 1960s, and there have been several winters.
If you want a general overview, you can take a look at this Wikipedia article.
