What I have observed in busienss is that smart people do smart things with AI. Just Like a well skilled person can do great things with a spreadsheet.
Stupid and lazy people do stupid and lazy things with AI, while looking smart. Just like that guy who build crap spreadsheets, but knows how to make them look pretty.
Most of the labour destroying practices come from market capitalism and shareholder culture. AI is just the excuse.
The IP theft is part of the business model in my mind, but I take your point. Its similar to the early days of the internet and the dot com boom and bust.
No this does not seem related to market capitalism or “shareholder culture”, yes some of the firings excused as AI disruption can be attributed to that but we must understand that every economic system wants to get the most output with minimal input. The disruption from AI isnt something that I think has happened yet. If the tech just affected 1 industry I wouldnt call it labour destroying. This is not just LLMs but vision models and general robotics all at breaking through at once.
