I support giving users the choice between AI and non-AI services and products.

But workers protesting the use of AI in their industries are dumb in my opinion.

AI is going to change a lot of industries forever and there is almost nothing workers and unions can do currently to actually stop the progress.

I even had seen some worker unions who are protesting AI use, accept working with companies that use AI and I support them, Because they won’t be taken seriously if they did not do that.

In short: I think workers should protest workers conditions and wages, rather than protesting technology.

AI adaptation is inevitable.

    Wow, this is truly unpopular.

    In short: I think workers should protest workers conditions and wages, rather than protesting technology.

    They are protesting working conditions when the tech companies stole all of their art without their permission, aren’t paying them and now claiming it as their own. All while putting the beginning artists out of business.

    List every artist they used for training for every picture and then compensate them, just like we do for music. The artists in music are paid even if it’s a sample.
