Fine you're in bucket #2.
Interesting how those who are united against AI have diverse reasons.
> Because we can already tell by the way you telegraphed the question you aren't worth wasting time on.
Nobody asked me before accusing me of bad intentions like you did, but I'll say anyway:
I think using technology to reduce human effort is entirely the point. I believe our economy needs to adapt to advancement, not the other way around. Not that it's going to be easy, but the anti-tech crowd are going to lose. You can't stop progress.
I know, an extreme philosophy to see on a tech forum.
I say this as someone who used AI to assist with real estate and legal issues recently with great success. And as a coder by trade that no longer writes code. And I'm amazed that anyone could say it's not amazing technology.
You can bucket me wherever you want hombre. Whatever makes you feel better. I walked away from tech voluntarily because I refuse to associate with or put my time toward a morally bankrupt industry, even if it is where my talents happen to align. I'm more than happy to be a subsistence humanitarian even if it requires me to sacrifice the gilt and opulence that comes with a tech salary.
I won't abuse humanity. Nor will I enable those who ultimately intend to do so using my work as a proxy. Maybe you should consider doing the same. You might learn something by stepping out of the bubble about all the problems you're creating.

Well I really hope you put your money where your mouth. That means: Never use AI (obviously). Never look up how to plant carrots on YouTube. Don't learn to play an instrument or paint. Anything that exploits public information and steals knowledge without compensation, like AI does, is off limits.
Otherwise you'd be an incredible hypoctrite. Especially since you've already extracted your share of wealth from tech before you saw the light and converted to ludditism.
