people's opinion will always be divided when it comes to whether AI is good or bad, we had the same conversation when crypto became a thing in 2013, it's the same with when every major innovation started taking shape.
One thing is always certain: people will live and die, and the human race will generally evolve through procreation. This is why I think death and tax isn't the only thing that's certain in life, another thing is human evolution, people will always evolve.
Empires will be built, they'll reach a peak, then hit diminishing returns before eventually dying out. There will always be a type of replacement for every sort of human innovation, and sometimes "liking it' is not what everyone will be comfortable with.
The fact that innovative is supposed to be better, faster, cleaner and spell development for the human race isn't exactly a reason for everyone to like it. If evolution was supposed to be better, then history or the preservation of history will honestly not mean anything to anyone.
People will always cling on to what's recognisable, something that feels good and nice, and sometimes, evolution doesn't always come with this.
We had the likes of warren buffet who was a traditional billionaire hate on BTC and crypto entirely, this isn't because he's an all-knowing guy, it's just that the way and manner he made money in a different era feels quite different from the era where money doesn't have to be universally traditional for everyone.
So he didn't dislike crypto because it was a threat to money or because he was a guru, he simply didn't understand it, didn't like it, didn't think it's something that should rival traditional money. I mean he had a lot of money I. Fiat and physical asset, which showed that he was a traditional money man to the core, but it doesn't exactly make him right.
Industries & Replacement
If you look at entertainment at the moment, AI is currently replacing editors, DJs, fashionistas music producers, film makers and so many other things. Whole it's still currently sloppy and not as good, you can definitely read the hand writing on the wall.
AI is trying to automate the process, reduce the time and effort even though it doesn't reduce the cost. In this area, people who learned the craft of traditional film making might hate AI, why?
Because it lets ordinary people who aren't even professionals, produce a level of craft that can even rival what they do and in a very short time. It's the same with when Guns started replacing swords and arrows. One weapon, more collateral damage and in a very short period and quick succession.
Innovations are inevitable
My point is that, there will always be a replacement, and to be honest, no everyone will like it, and we're entitled not to. For example, I don't exactly like how the abuse of AI has reduced opportunities for people.
At the moment, I can categorically analyse how the abuse of AI have stolen money making opportunities for me, but this is it. People will always abuse innovations, because the idea is always to get ahead of your competitors, do better, ship faster and make more money.
People are always looking to abuse whatever edge there are out there, and this is honestly the era we live in.
AI is not the only innovation that will be hated.
I think more human innovations will be hated because it obviously will take away the opportunity from some type of people, give it to some others and even give them more edge, while it seems unfair, it's just generally life.
I've seen the capabilities of AI, and while I can generally not afford it, I think it's safe to say that that edge will keep staying with people who will take out money from other industries and put them into AI, and that's just what it is.
I think this is why everyone should be open minded, except you work a job that requires manual heavy lifting or emotional judgement and presence, it's honestly very important to keep an open mind about AI, and take advantage of it, if you can.
