Comments like this shed light on the dystopian future these creeps have in store for us.
Humans are working creatures. We're not built for a sedentary life. Work is good for the mind, body and soul. Sedation is for plants. But, that what they want. Plants!!
Jeff Bezos tells workers to be glad they are being given the "gift" of AI:
Will unregulated AI create an era of economic abundance as Jeff Bezos predicts, or will it accelerate job displacement while enriching tech billionaires?
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has urged workers to embrace the rapid rise of artificial intelligence, comparing the technology's disruption to being handed a "bulldozer" instead of a shovel.
In a recent CNBC interview, Bezos predicted that unregulated AI will spark an era of unprecedented economic abundance and deflation, driving down the costs of essential goods like food and housing while enabling dual-income households to happily transition to single-income lifestyles.
He also brushed off concerns over a potential AI investment bubble, arguing that massive capital flows—including into his own newly funded $10 billion AI robotics startup, Project Prometheus—are inherently healthy for long-term productivity and economic growth.
However, critics argue that Bezos's techno-optimistic vision is highly self-serving and stands in sharp contrast to the reality of mass tech layoffs and rising consumer prices.
As AI continues to reshape the labor market, the debate over whether to rely on free-market deregulation or a tax-funded social safety net remains intensely polarizing.
