I respect a lot of political critique of Job Stewart and his ability to communicate to the masses in simpler ways. But, I felt this was way off the mark. It loses the logic in order to bring out the comedic appeal.<p>Sure, there are downsides to a new technology that improves productivity. But, it is a tool after all. What are we supposed to do? Not research anything new because it might put somebody off their job? Keep mining coal because the coal miner might lose their job? Keep running ICE because the workers at an ICE factory might lose their job?<p>There is always a cost to progress. It is better to talk about managing the progress (regulate that all AI needs to be open to analysis, publish their weights etc, tackle reproducibility of results etc.) instead of dumb fear mongering. Even Job Stewart cannot stop LLMs from being improved.
