If your job can be automated. Your job will be automated. Even if the work it produces is hot runny shit.
They would rather pump out pure garbage than pay an honest wage for honest work. It doesn't even have to work. They'll just put an arbitration clause in the EULA. Then sit back and count their money.
That's not how companies work. The CEO has a fiduciary duty to maximize company gains, so they have to invest in AI, because it's more profitable. They don't even have a choice, if they want to keep their job.
The current crisis has nothing to do with the individual decisions of a single CEO. It's a legal issue, i.e. CEOs could only act differently if there was a significant and serious change in the way that the law requires them to operate. Which, all things considered, is unreasonable in this case.
They wouldn't act differently. Watch 1 hour of CNBC. Those people only technically qualify as human.
