Title: I know obviously there is a ton of discussion about GPT-4 in the main announcement post, and while I&#x27;m blown away by a lot of these capabilities, I honestly don&#x27;t understand how our capitalist system will survive this, long term. I&#x27;m not a Luddite, but it&#x27;s pretty easy for me to see how this will get rid of the need for tons of jobs. People always love to say &quot;technology replacing people has been happening since the beginning of time&quot;, but the change here (at least to me) is that the <i>rate</i> by which AI can fill jobs will (or has?) hit a tipping point where it will be faster than new jobs will pop up.<p>How do other people feel about this? I&#x27;ve discounted tons of hype cycles in the past (crypto&#x2F;Blockchain, Metaverse, etc.), even in cases where I was wrong (e.g. the importance of mobile), but this feels at least as consequential as the Internet to me.
