Well the economy is doing well and they are building the infrastructure around ai so of course there hasn't been mass unemployment.

I predict it will take 5-10 years before there is a drastic effect on the general job market. They still need to build the systems and audit what employees are expendable.

We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run.

If we want to ensure that we stay true to Amara's Law, we will need to spend the next 10 years ensuring that we use AI across all of civilization to enshittify everything and prevent young people from meaningfully entering society.

I envy the earlier generations who got to reach adulthood before our society began collapsing into hell, and I pity the children who grew up in the hell of my teenage years. This world is rotten and I will fight until my last breathe to save it, whether it is in vain or not I refuse to accept the common sentiment of selfishness out of fear that has taken hold of public sentiment.

"I still need food to eat, water to drink, a roof over my head, etc."

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? - Matthew 6:25
