I absolutely sympathize with this and was/still is my opinion... but the only "evolution" of that is the hope that, while I don't think you can prevent the scams and short-term pain on labor markets... you maybe, actually, genuinely get a tool that helps change some of the dynamics that has led to the absolute discrepancy in power today.

If AI is truly as revolutionary as it could be... well, who is to say it isn't the pandoras box that destabilizes the tech giants today and gets us back to a place where a team of 10 can genuinely compete against 1000. And not in the "raise cash, build fast, and get out while things are good" trend... but actually in building, small, more principled, companies that aren't pushed to do the unsustainable things that current market pushes them to do.

Once again... it is more likely than not to be a pipe-dream... but I am starting to think it may well be better to be realistic about the momentum this freight train is building and see if it can be repurposed for my world-view rather than to cede the space to the worst of the grifters and profit-seeking-at-all-cost types.

My suspicion is that current sophistication of tech and AI is already enough to fulfill gp's predictions, and it's already doing that.

You can do no profit from AI unless you're providing the AI.
