The commoditization and automation of everything means that humans become worthless.
To me that is an oxymoron. Humans are the source of meaning and value. Nothing could make us worthless. We are the ones who assign value, without us the concept does not exist.
Sure, among us that is true. But to those who have power over us...the corporations and the government...our only value is our labor.
because this piece of software SCALES.
