"AI will make all of your work obsolete, there's nothing we can do about it. Shame..."

I'm fine with losing my job, it's tedious anyway. I'm not with losing my income though. Let automation and programs do the work and share the fruit of their labor to the people. Get rid of CEOs.

Then we can talk about optimism.

AI-CEOs should be a thing to work towards.

Who decides their programming? Are they bound to ethics or shareholder wealth? Better get rid of shareholders as well.

Ah yes, like a CEO but for the workers.
