The image is a digital collage featuring a man in a suit and hat, a mountain, and a red circle with text, set against a starry sky.

This same logic applies to just about everything. Most basic things are cheaper, safer, and higher quality if you do them yourself. Medicine, food, ammunition, maintenance and repairs... Read books, and "expert" wizards can no longer cast "Iknowsomethingyoudontpayme". youtube.com/shorts/WLAD8...

Scene from Children Of Men. Clive Owen walks briskly across a sidewalk from left to right gripping a disposable coffee cup. A person in the background is hunched over buffing away a graffiti mural that reads, "The Four Thieves Vinegar Project Lives" with a plague doctor in a hexagon partially obstructed in the lower right corner by offset text, 'The' and 'Thieves'. The buffer is doing this quickly with a paint roller & grey paint that doesn't match the wall beneath. 1 second out of frame are UK riot cops in full armor protecting him and trying to quell a riot.

When you're constantly just trying to keep the lights on and put food on the table, you don't have the time or energy to fight the system. Keeping people hanging on by a thread isn't a policy failure; it's how they keep us too tired to push back.

Astute observation from the South China Morning Post:
Now some Al models can perform basic research, analysis, coding, writing and administrative work. The broader problem with AI might not simply be that it eliminates jobs but that it eliminates the very roles through which humans learned how to do the high-level work machines cannot replace.
