Keep defending AI, dude, and then turning it around and making it sound like it's about my ignorance.

You're acting like I can't see past my own desk? And yet you refuse to acknowledge the impact this is having on millions of working class people.

And none of those jobs have been taken by ai, [...] But the entire work section isn’t suddenly gone. [...] software engineers, they’re not gone are they?

Oh, so you haven't been paying attention? That's literally what's happening. Huge layoffs, tech workers unable to find work in what used to be considered one of the most secure job fields, and worst of all it's entry-level positions that are getting hit the hardest. New grads are almost entirely unable to find jobs. And this problem will only get worse as the senior positions retire and there's no one to replace them because companies weren't hiring new juniors.

And I'm not even a tech worker, so for you to insinuate that I'm somehow making this all about me is ridiculous. There's something called empathy which enables humans to give a shit about problems that mostly impact other people. I know that's so hard for you to wrap your mind around, so clearly you have to tell yourself that I'm actually being selfish by giving a shit about this. Whatever.
