@hartoutwest Obviously incrementalism is working overtime to crush any progress we might have made.
I've been told:
We won the Senate
Get perspective
You don't understand how this works
Pump your brakes
People just choose to not be happy
Biden will fix it
Where are those people now? 🤔🖕
When I lost my livelihood I lost the ability to help people. My old Facebook fan page that I've had since 2010 shows me helping people. Now I have to figure out how to help myself. I'm trying to manifest a job that nets me about $1000 a month. I'm worth it.✌🏻
I saw UHF in the theatre as a kid. It's one of my favorite funny movies ever. Watch it right now, on the best free streaming service I've ever found, @Tubi.
@Tubi Hey @Tubi thanks for the retweet. I recommend your service to everyone I know. I'm really enjoying UHF with Weird Al right now. Thanks for being so awesome! 🧡
@Tubi is really great. I don't know what I'd do without this service. I have so little, it's just nice to have some fun movies to watch to keep my spirit up.
For all the people defending 14-year-olds working at McDonald's instead of automating those jobs, where would you draw the line? How young is too young to make your Big Macs for you? Why should kids do work that machines can? Because you did when that tech didn't exist?
GPT-4 now exists. LLMs are already being embodied in robots. Flippy exists. The technology to almost entirely automate McDs already exists, some locations are even already doing it, and yet here we are debating whether 14-year-olds should work at McDs or not, because of our own work history as teens. Because if we did a thing, our kids should do it too?
I worked as a teen too. My first real job was a paper route. My 2nd job was pushing carts. Those jobs were disposable income for me, not survival income. I wasn't put to work by my parents to pay the bills. I was lucky. Others are not.
But here we are now in the AI Age. We can do universal basic income and make sure that no one (adult or child) is forced to take a job just to survive. We can make all jobs fully voluntary disposable income vs survival income jobs, and automate as many jobs as we can.
When we do that, great, teens who really want to work for spending money, who wouldn't rather be wanting to do something else should be able to freely make that choice.
But we have to make that world first. I refuse to support a world that forces some percentage of kids to work for their families' survival when we could prevent that with UBI and machines. Survival work for kids is not okay just because you worked as a kid, and wages so low that only kids will do that work is not the way to encourage automation or make survival more affordable right now.
Step back a moment and consider just how much work we can hand over to machines right now, why we aren't embracing that, and where making it easier for kids to fill jobs fits into that picture.
AI wouldn't exist without all the data collected from us to train it.
A Citizen's AI Dividend is repayment for that, a collective share of the benefits, in a world where AI out-competes average workers.

@Planetshpr@AdamForColorado Well, I don't like her either, so what's your point? If I don't like him I must like her?

They're both horrible options.🤦🏼♀️
