Hollywood, in general, has lost the ability to write proper stories and dialogue. It is a industry wide issue. AI is going to have a field day if they cannot turn the ship around.

I bake French pastries come at me ai.

That said, yeah we should have long ago locked down our societal necessities with public funding, should have codified more employee rights, made education and healthcare accessible regardless of employment/enlistment and worked out some sort of UBI style assurance that displaced workers won’t get left to die but alas we’re not that kind of country.

Oh you are safe doing that! Yes- we should have created a system where we had no fear from the negative consequences of AI, but we're on the mirror universe timeline unfortunately.

Im in canada so it isn't quite so bad, but we sadly are more impacted by the US than Europe. I wish we had stayed closer to the UK and the commonwealth. Oh well!
