100%. Great summary of my feelings on this, as well. I tried not to go full-on into the despair spiral, but unfortunately, I see things the same. This AI doing our jobs so we can be free thing has seemed to me extremely unrealistic for years.
of course, now (for a little while, I think) there's a time where AI seems beneficial, easy to use and accessible to us all. Because otherwise it would be frightening enough to cause mass outrage, I think. But that is the way with most takeovers. We're your friends...until we're not.
Why nobody's saying this?
I think there are people, but they're being ridiculed and disregarded as extremist and conspiracy nuts.
