@liztai @cliffle I'm in the USA and must admit that I've only ever thought about AI in my own "context". Your essay made me realize that so thank you. I read another essay recently that discussed AI and how we only look at its effects based on our current environment. If in the US we had social safety nets like healthcare for all, UBI, etc, then worker displacement due to AI would not be as terrible. Instead it could even be good in that it would free up many people to start small businesses.

@liztai @cliffle There's no reason the parameters of the environment can't change. However the situation in the USA right now feels pretty grim and I don't have any hope of expanded social safety nets of any kind being implemented any time soon.
