Why had the advent of semi-intelligent agents suddenly turned Silicon Valley into a place that now hates its own workers. Why is it that a place that once believed the mutual benefit of an intelligent worker and a company has turned into a time to brutalize or even hate the very creators of this technology

Where is all this hatred coming from?

It always hated its workers, it just didn't think it had other options for a long time.

Did it hate the market dynamics. i.e. Peter theils thesis that competition is for losers because it drives up prices... therefore the shortage of talent was creating competition which should be hated?

Yea this has always been a market dynamics issue that it tried to manipulate... but it didn't have a flavor of hatred to it.

Then notion here is that the ownership class hates that it cannot own the creators of work. And now a new class if intelligence exists that can be fully owned.

This is dark.
