Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Don't forget that when the big corporations thought that AI would easily replace all the humans, they signed up for it without even a look back. (self.showerthoughts)

There used to be a horse in every barn across the USA. You all are like horses in a stable discussing that new fancy automobile and how it will make your lives easier. And it will for the few. The rest will no longer be needed and you can figure out the rest.

The horses did not invent the automobile. Humans have te capability to revolt (see history). Your methapore doesnt make any sense. This seems like a line from a hollywood movie where robots are taking over the world. Style over substance.

A comprehensive surveillance state + a small number of people operating many combat drones seems like a solid counter to the ability of the people to revolt that history has not seen before, especially if their labor is also not needed

Your dumb ass didn't invent the computer either let alone know how a.i. works. The people who own the farm sold those horse for glue. Your soft hands ain't picking up a picket sign, let alone the means to change society. Your wishful "we can revolt" is like a line from a Hallmark made for tv show. See ya later space glue.
