Last one should read “You need a minimum 5 years experience and AI will screen out your resume without a perfect match” and “why is it so hard for us to find qualified candidates?”

Truly baffling to read just how disconnected some people are.

No, that would make a few people incomprehensible wealthy while everyone else starved.

He hasn’t changed a bit since before his first term. Anyone who payed any attention at all can see that. I’ve said it elsewhere, but this kind of post is just an attempt to jump off the sinking ship before history solidifies you on the wrong side of history and morality.

This. He’s been the exact same since before the first term. If the access Hollywood tape wasn’t enough to push you away from him, then it’s not a moral issue. You bought the hate. Don’t chicken out now just because his asinine vitriol is starting to hurt you a bit. That feels a lot like seeing the ship has sprung some leaks and trying to get on the lifeboat before permanently getting stuck on the wrong side of history.

Anecdotally, I’d say money and the world would be the two big things.

People don’t have enough money to raise kids. Americans can’t afford to give birth with hospital bills. Childcare is expensive, but the alternative is no income. People can’t accumulate generational wealth, so there’s nothing to pass on, therefore no need for anyone to pass it to.

Environmental anxiety is real. Why bring kids into a world that’s about to burn?

Maybe one last factor is rebellion. A small sample I feel like chooses not to have kids so as not to perpetuate the system. The billionaires can’t exploit my kids if I don’t have any.

The rich are universally rich entirely by continually choosing to ignore the plight of the poor and slinging bootstrap condemnations. No identity sustained by evil choosing can be equated with racism.

It’ll be total control almost as fast as his total control over Iran.

What’s the clear and present danger for this one again?

Capitalism, corporate greed, and oil cartels.

Capitalism

There are plenty of things God “might have done,” But this sort of thing is neither scientific nor scriptural.

But AI, at this point and for the foreseeable future, is not a thinking machine. It’s a probability machine. It can do some neat tricks and some helpful things, but it is not thinking.

I would also posit that AI is in many ways less useful than tech that came before it. Computers largely augment what people had been doing on paper for centuries before, just faster, more consistently, easier. AI promises to outsource thinking, which isn’t augmenting something people already do (or at least should do). But at this point, it fails to do even that.
