If AI can replace a mid-six figure job, it can diagnose any plumbing issue and tell the unemployed Porsche owner how to fix the problem.


The plumber won't have any cash because he won't have any jobs because no one has money. Ai won't take him/her down but the bad economy will.


Plus it got a lot easier to figure out how to fix things yourself thanks to the proliferation of how-to videos on Youtube. In the last couple of months I fixed issues my car, replaced a my sink disposal unit, fixed problems with my hvac and two major appliances and so on. Keep voting for Republicans who keep our wages stagnant and soon you won't be so boastful about how much better you are for not going to college and becoming a plumber instead.

Computer science grads have the highest rates of unemployment. Learn another field and learn how coding & AI streamline your effort. Computer science shouldn’t be a major anymore.


New paper shows that AI may actually be slowing things down even though it feels faster.

It's artificial because of H-1B. Microsoft laid of 6,000 people and brought in 9,000 h-1b.

I'm so glad Trump is doing something about the evil job killing EO's Biden signed.


What the hell are you talking about? I hope you posted that as satire.

Mullions of Americans went back to work under Biden, after massive low employment numbers from Trump's mishandling of the pandemic.

Indian coders didn't start pouring into the country because of Biden EOs.

Nor did Microsoft lay off thousands because of Biden EOs.

And Trump isn't sending Indian coders back home and putting American coders back to work.

Maybe violent luddites will be the next burgeoning industry.

AI reduces labor costs but in the end, labor costs won’t matter if you cannot sell your product to any consumers.

Oh, it's a terrible idea that will just generate a lot of economic chaos. There will be some winners, but it won't be you, and it definitely won't be most Trump voters.


Actually, many Trump voters have jobs that cannot be replaced by AI. They are plumbers, electricians, carpenters, welders, dog groomers, farmers, etc.


LOL. If computers are doing surgery, they can weld and wire.


This is actually pretty cool solar powered AI weeders.

It does disrupt the economy. But, who needs herbicides and genetic engineering. This is awesome.

AKA, more money for Spotify, because there are no artists with whom to share the money. That is why AI is being pushed and used. Not because it is better, or is going to benefit the average person, but because it allows CEOs to eliminate human labor overhead. (P.S. All this output material is a result of 100+ years of stolen music by human artists, fed into a AI model blender that spits out a prompted Frankenstein spoonful. Nothing original or new, in any way.)

Justine Bateman is an idiot, regardless. She's a Trumpsters, and Trump just signed a bill to not allow states to regulate AI for 10 years.

What's the point of that? The system that Republicans are fine with is already rigged to put 400,000 Indian and Chinese coders a year in line for jobs ahead of American coders, and a lot of the coder job market will shrink when tech companies have Copilot and other tools writing half the code plus the unit tests and everything else for them.


It's kind of nuts that we give vastly more visas to basically subsidize the shit out of tech than we do for ag and construction, when people are suffering and struggling with ever increasing housing and food costs.
