Nah, that is a false equivalence. Replacing "people" with machines is very different from replacing "bonds" with machines. You are not literally killing the people and replacing them with a robot. It's a job.

You are conflating replacing the job with literally replacing the person. And personal bonds are not jobs, nor are hobbies. You are not going to have someone or a robot play golf for you. Nor would you replace your mom.

Art and culture are two different things, they are not replacing bonds. But i think the disconnect there comes solely from the current state of ai. Once it improves to the point of being indistinguishable as all technologies do, i think those will be seen as much less problematic outside of the lens of capitalism.

    ... You think my position is that I think stable diffusion will kill people.

    Like Body Snatchers?

    To anyone still reading: This is ultimately why I didn't go for the point-by-point essay post so many else did. How am I supposed to respond to this? Genuinely.
