I have a few examples of people replaced by AI.

Photoshop slop cheap ads on the streets and TV are mostly AI slop now.

Content creators, publishers, media, music industries are all heavily affected.

The company I know paid $2K for wireframe UX design instead of standard $10K UX + UI. UI part was done by AI ($8K in human labor was replaced by AI)

I know a few companies stuck with ancient software that have been paying salaries to generations of programmers, this software is being replaced by AI, quite fast too.

I know positions which are in essence “receive a fax and type it into the system” right now being replaced by AI.

This is neither pro- nor anti- AI stance. Saying that a chatbot will ultimately replace humans is lying — they need to justify trillions in valuations.

Saying that AI is not severely changing our society is ignorance and head in the sand tactics.

The majority of Internet traffic are bots. I’m terrified of the upcoming elections with all the deepfakes and bot campaigns.

People should not reinvent the wheel. FOSS Android has already solved many problems which Linux always will have, by design.

Non-preemtive scheduler which doesn’t take app usage into account will drain battery fast. Non-managed app platform is always a security risk.

The absence of a single app framework will always lead to a zoo. Any average Gnome installation bring all KDE and vise versa because different apps use different GUI and Desktop convenience libraries.

Google is trying to kill Android by moving more and more core functionality from OSS into proprietary services.

We need to fight back through forks and legislations. Android has started as a Linux phone 15 years ago? And has already solved a ton of inherent problems.

It is illegal to keep deleted profiles

No, this is have enough canned food scenario.

If the money would wipe out from the economy, that is less money for everyone. First round of bankruptcies will also wipe out contractors and debt issuers of the bancrupted companies, and so on. Mass layoffs. People cannot afford restaurants, or car washes, more businesses out, more mass layoffs.

In 2001 tech bubble the money haven’t been lost. Virtual valuation dropped sharply. But the economy recovered in a year.

This is like 2008, money have been poured into concrete and silicon chips. They were spend, gone for good. It will take a few good years to recover if the bubble would burst.
