Sure, but AI pessimism is allowed to be personal. Am I supposed to be optimistic that I feel I'm about to get shafted? Should I be less concerned that I need to provide for my family, because in the long term this is going to be a great step forward for humanity?

youre allowed to be personally pessimistic, but if you actually do anything to prevent it from happening i think that is incredibly selfish.

it would be like an oncologist trying to stop an anti-cancer pill because theyd be out of a job.
