It's humans ruining things for other humans. AI is just a tool that makes it easier and cheaper

That's the main point, though: the tire fire of humanity is bad enough without some sick fucks adding vast quantities of accelerant in order to maximize profits.

Since all the lawsuits and laws in the world cannot stop generative AI at this point

Clearly that's not true. They'll keep it up for as long as it's at all positive to extract profits from it, but not past that. Handled right, this class action could make the entire concept poisonous from a profiteering perspective for years, maybe even decades.

we might as well fix the underlying problems that enable this bullshit.

Of COURSE! Why didn't anyone think to turn flick off the switches marked "unscrupulous profiteering" and "regulatory capture"?!

We'll have this done by tomorrow, Monday at the latest! 🙄

Making big AI companies go away isn't going to help with these problems.

The cancer might be the underlying cause but the tumor still kills you if you don't do anything about it.

the development of AI certainly won't stop.

Again, it WILL if all profitability is removed.

It will just move to countries with fewer scruples and weaker ethics

Than silicon valley? Than the US government when ultra-rich white men want something?

No such country exists.

The biggest problem is (mostly unregulated) capitalism

Finally right about something.

Fix that, and suddenly AI "taking away jobs" ceases to be a problem.

"Discover the cure for cancer and suddenly the tumord in your brain, lungs, liver, and kidneys won't be a problem anymore!" 🤦

Hopefully, AI will force the world to move toward the Star Trek future

Wtf have you been drinking??
