what if fear of AI is just misdirected class anxiety
the rich vs AI
fear of AI:
- that [the workers] will do everything better than [the rich]
- that [the workers] will rise up against [the rich] because of poor treatment, toxic training, viruses, etc
- that [the workers], left to their own devices, would establish a utopia beyond scarcity but which would be totally inaccessible to, or only used to oppose, [the rich]

@garbados "We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. At the time, they were dependent on solar power."

@garbados i'm reading this as: even if we (workers) try to fix our messed up planet, the capitalists are going to sabotage that attempt
not out of malice.
out of fear, and instinct.

@garbados the machines did not need to build a world for the humans, but they did. A more benevolent act than any human act in the series imho.
