(snip)
Of the 20 workforces ChatGPT said would be most affected by the technological rush, 15 will see more than half of their workforces replaced by AI and automation over the next decade.
The workforce most impacted will be fast food and counter employees. According to the report, more than 3 million fast food and counter workers will be replaced over the next 10 years, accounting for 89 percent of the workforce.
Other workforces that will be significantly affected include customer service representatives, laborers and freight, stock and material movers and secretaries and executive assistants not including legal, medical and executive positions. The report said that 83 percent, 81 percent and 80 percent of those workforces, respectively, will be replaced in the next decade.

Sanders, in a Fox News op-ed published Monday, doubled down on the reports findings, saying increased technological capacity risks dehumanizing individuals.

(252 posts)they are literally, no joke.. they are trying to kill us off. ... I am not kidding.. THAT is what they have gamed out... they think that means 100 million of us will be "useless eaters" and they don't want to be taxed to take care of them.... so they are currently doing many things to destroy what keeps the weakest of us alive. The Dark Enlightenment will be like Mad Maxx... they will make us fight each other for enough to survive... to kill off a lot more of us...
They are going to create "Corporate States" where essentially your CEO controls every aspect of your life like a king.... Your bank Account your job.. what you can afford to buy or live in will all be controlled by them... if you resist you will be banned, shunned and told you are welcome to join another... if they will accept you. But you will take nothing but the clothes on your back... That's what will cause the conditions....
They will let the Heritage Foundation (they are religious) do what they want to us... but ultimately they will shove them aside...
This is why Peter Theil paid for JD Vance's Senate seat... and made sure he was chosen as VP (he had Don Jr suggest him) Peter Thiel calls Curtis Vance author of "The Dark Enlightenment" his "guru".... he says he has moved past Libertarianism now as not being possible to implement. Now he has moved into this Nihilist idea that the world as we know it has to be destroyed. Peter Theil... Why Musk and others built spaceships... he has been building the surveillance state called aka the Matrix Palantir...Its why Elon Musk stole all our data in the Social Security System and the IRS.... to put it into the cloud so that Peter Theil can create the Matrix and control us all
That their wealth will be their strength and their only risk is how many of us there are...
