Working as a graphic designer in the US since the early 2000's, every employer I ever worked for eventually used Fiverr to pay someone overseas a fraction of what they paid me to do the same work. This doesn't seem meaningfully different.

Not saying this is okay, just that it's not even remotely (no pun intended) a new problem.

    This whole thing is a to send a message to begin with as with AI, actually more so.

    Most of the "AI job losses" are this sort of offshoring actually... Joke is on the wage slaves.

    This is pure Astronaut meme with “wait, AI is just 3rd world wage slaves?”
