AI has the potential to automate and replace many jobs, especially creative and journalistic roles. This threatens livelihoods and could disproportionately impact marginalized groups.
AI systems are prone to replicating and exacerbating existing human biases. They also struggle with nuance, empathy, and emotional intelligence.
Companies are often overestimating AI’s capabilities and underestimating its limitations. Experts warn of potential dangers but businesses prioritize profits.
The use of AI to automate tasks can be inefficient and lead to worse customer experiences. Companies often fail to consult workers before implementing AI systems.
AI relies on scraping and using human-created content without proper compensation or acknowledgment, especially artists’ work.
The mental health crisis among students is fueling their use of AI to cheat. The education system also needs to adapt to make better use of AI.
“Ghost work” and exploitation of underpaid workers enables the development of AI systems. There are few labor protections for AI-related jobs.
The true dystopia may be higher levels of exploitation and desperation as people are forced to keep working due to the necessity of jobs.
A utopian vision for AI would involve using it to support and augment human creativity, with work becoming more meaningful and fair.
Universal basic income could give people the freedom to pursue work they find satisfying, while ensuring access to basic necessities.
