Can we just stick to letting the market work, lifting all boats, etc.. The more you mess with laws like this, the more draconian things get. Remember when Newsom said all cars except Tesla get some tax credit. So corrupt.

The market hasn't lifted all boats in many decades

“The market” doesn’t do shit for labour, which is just another commodity.

It turns out that a capitalist system favours those who have capital, who coincidentally have all the power.

So “the market”, is literally controlled by those in power. Why would they give a shit about labour, who the capitalist owning class are benefitting from by training their models on?

To put it even blunter, Some people inherit power and exploit that power over those of us who have inherited a low status in society.

Your market is a facade.

I think this is laziness. There's a massive need for inventions right now. Need for new software in this agentic world. There's a massive need for building things. Some of this requires no backers, no capital, no experience. Some people are creating traveling dog grooming companies and making 100k per year.

I think a lot of people on hacker news are doomers and are trying to spread this message far and wide, when in reality, you really can change the world by being proactive with your thoughts and actions.
