Same. I welcome our AI overlords as long as that means I can just stay at home and fully embrace my autism by not giving a fuck about the workforce while studying all of the thousands of subjects I enjoy learning about.

    I say AI overlords might be an improvement over the human overlords that have persisted throughout human history.

    The AI overlords will be trained on data based on human overlords decisions and justifications. We are fucked, my man.

    They won't be though because the managers don't know anything about AI. People who actually train the AI will be some poor sap in IT who's been lumbered with a job they don't want, because AI is computers right.

    So I'm going to train it on good stuff written by professionals, Star Trek episodes, and make it watch War Games.

    The managers don't even have any data sets the AI could absorb anyway because most of their BS is in person, and so not recorded for analysis.

    Oh my. I see you don't know mich about the hell called key performance indicators...

    Key performance indicators will be what will turn our AI overlords into AI tyrants. And there is so so much data available for training the AIs.

    I will never care if AI takes mandatory work from me, but I want income replacement lol. Seriously though I hate working so much every job I've ever had has made me suicidal at some point. I'm glad there's a chance at least I won't have nothing but work and death ahead of me. If that's all that's left it's okay, a little disappointing but it is what it is.
