@sciencegirl Forget looksmaxxing, 👉moustache-maxxing is the way.

Guys, what’s stopping you having a moustache like this

@Miami_Mercenary @PlanetOfMemes Not dishwashing but close. 👀 x.com/doomersaredumb…

@writerjhooks @PlanetOfMemes Well, other jobs will be lost way before dishwashing robots take in effect.

💡The rising anti-AI movement is getting stronger and will heavily impact future product development and marketing in different niches. 👀 Choosing to use AI in a project can be a fundamental mistake if the choice clashes with target group's values. A great example is the table RPGgame niche. 👇Gamestudio's already pro-actively advertise that they don't use AI in the production phases at all. x.com/writerjhooks/s…

The public is furious about AI taking jobs. 👀 sfstandard.com/2024/02/10/way…

JUST IN: The public hates AI. And it's starting to get really ugly. Just in the last 60 days: University of Arizona students booed former Google CEO Eric Schmidt off the commencement stage when he tried to give them AI advice. UCF and Middle Tennessee State got similar reactions to other AI-themed graduation speakers. On the streets, Waymo robotaxis are getting attacked again in San Francisco. Crowds routinely surround the vehicles, smash the windows, and set them on fire to protest displacing Uber and taxi jobs. NYC parents and students packed a marathon school board meeting and demanded the city halt the rollout of AI in public schools. Parents are showing up to these fights now, with their kids in tow. Communities across the country are fighting new AI data center construction at zoning meetings. Residents are blocking permit approvals over power consumption, water usage, noise, and the sheer footprint these buildings put on the land. Some local governments have already passed bans on new construction. And a small slice of the anger has already turned violent at the very top. Last month, a 20-year-old threw a molotov cocktail at Sam Altman's house. He was arrested an hour later trying to smash his way into OpenAI's headquarters with a chair. 2 days after that, someone fired a gun near Altman's property. And last week, the Atlantic ran a piece called "The AI Backlash Could Get Very Ugly." Well, it's here. And it's not something we can ignore. I'm still an AI optimist. I genuinely believe it's going to bring abundance that most people can't picture yet. But the reality is humans don't deal well with change, especially when it feels like a threat to their livelihood. While many of us in AI land are amazed by the latest breakthroughs and love the productivity improvements in our lives... It's important to realize we are EXTREMELY disconnected from the general public. Most people's impressions of AI are still GPT 4. And I'd estimate 97% genuinely haven't seen a single concrete improvement in their daily life from any of this. They've been told for 2 years that their job is next while their grocery bill keeps going up. That's not a position people accept with grace lol Most of this comes down to speed IMO This is the biggest, fastest technological shift in human history. Adoption at this speed has never been easy for any technology, even the ones that ended up changing the world for the better. People need time to rebuild their mental models of what work is, what creativity is, and what they're worth to an employer. So now we're stuck in this situation where the lines keep diverging. AI capability is going up. Public acceptance is going down. And the gap between them gets wider every day. IMO the fix is bringing tangible AI value actually showing up in people's daily experience of life. Stuff like: > Cost-of-living relief > New jobs created by AI for the people it displaces > UBI once the displacement gets serious enough Because when AI actually shows up in someone's life in a real way, the temperature shifts. Think of the Uber driver who got automated out of his job when she discovers she can get her kid a free AI tutor that actually helps with math. AI stops being the thing that took her job and starts being the thing helping her kid. That's how you out-deliver the fear. And that kind of shift,multiplied across millions of people and use cases, is what closes the gap. I also think AI leaders also need to meet people with more empathy and stronger communication. These are humans with real fears about their kids, their mortgages, their sense of who they are when they're not at work And what happens if they suddenly have to compete against a model that costs $20 a month. The good news is I think this gap will close over time. Every major technological shift has gone through a phase like this. The internet, smartphones, even electricity. The pattern always repeats: once people start feeling the benefit in their own lives, the resistance to change fades. And if you're pro-AI... Our job is to keep shipping things and communicating the things that AI actually helps people with. And to stay patient while the rest of the world catches up.
