    I prefer a model that is milquetoast liberal over one made by Elon 'Mechahitler' Musk.

    Well yeah rightwing people are not the kind of people to take up psychology. I also don’t think you will find many Marxists in corporate law .

    They were not opposing automation. They were opposing loss of jobs, wages, dignity in work and all that. And they turned out to be completely right. AI is just the next attack from…
