llms are totally empowering people! The ruling class is definately not weaponizing these tools to devalue the your labor, pocket millions!

If you're a surviving engineer at one of these companies enjoy working twice as much for the same amount of money.

    Have you considered that

    1. it could be an excuse, they said it was only part of the reason themselves

    2. ai is empowering the homeowner to do their own repairs, negating the need for Angi, thus reinforcing #1

    3. people are feeling the financial crunch, so they are opting to do their own repairs, regardless of ai, thus reinforcing #1

    4. their revenue has been falling for 3 years, thus reinforcing #1

      Fine, that's fine, don't go around selling it as AI efficiencies and giving other companies an excuse to do the same. There's been 400k layoffs in 16 months in SWE, during a bull market.

      LLMs are a weapon who's target is the working class. They will use every opportunity to devalue our labor and remove the working class's bargaining chips. AI is a dream come true for the ruling class, what do you think their plan is for us?

      You think that they're going to allow the tide to raise all boats? The owner of Telluride ski resort shut the whole town down this year because he didn't want to negotiate with the ski patrol union. He didn't want to pay $65k spread out over 3 years. He's a billionaire. He punished a whole town to make a point. For these people it is ideological, it has nothing to do with saving money, or making more money. Its about having control over the working class.

      American's are so brainwashed they embrace the ruling class as their protectors, while they laugh at them, they think their boss loves them or that they can be the boss one day.

        Do you really think

        1. All Americans are the same? (have you seen what the people of Minneapolis are doing?)

        2. Anything you just described is only an American problem? (have you seen the global network in the epstein files?)

        it's Friday man, time to chill out after a stressful week
