gotta say it's highkey disappointing seeing purportedly smart people advocating against technological advancement on the grounds of job security

bruh if your job can be automated away why tf you gun force people to pay you? how bout you git gud instead huh?

yeah yeah I get that y'all scared of the future and insecure about your ability to provide value to an organization but if this lil software tool can entirely replace you... mb your position didn't need to exist in the first place

keeping around useless jobs just for the sake of "full employment" is how one kills an economy, slowly but surely strangles the capability for innovation out of it

we make better tools to multiply our reach, to do more with less, to climb up the ladder of technological progress

if you think we're gunna let you hold us back just so you can sit back, churn out your basic-ass JIRA tickets and collect a cushy salary you're in for a rough ride, pal

we're goin to the future and you're either gunna come with or get fired, your choice

@pee_zombie Yes! The purpose of an economy is to create wealth, not jobs. Wealth sets men free.
