@auderdy and there’s no obvious analogue of “a career” that current cashiers etc would be able to pursue. So it makes sense that there is more existential anxiety than felt potential. But maybe once the barrier to white collar jobs is sufficiently reduced by AI there could be a move up!
@auderdy Washing machines and other household appliances were a big deal for suffragettes and early feminists since those machines freed them up to pursue their own careers. But the conversation around jobs like cashier or food delivery are about class rather than gender

@KaiSchwa Checks out that he’s Austrian/grew up flying Austrian Airlines! We have very solid food on there. Also, I love the glass of orange juice inside the plastic teacup.
This must be one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen. I remember when Word Lens (now the AR camera function on G Translate) blew my mind some years ago, and now we take it for granted. Let’s never forget how amazing this is. https://t.co/WJNDYIFYzA
