I was pretty shocked that he thought that way too.

He is very much a "don't tax the rich, just grow the pie instead" type. Any time someone asks him about growing wealth inequality he falls back to that. So if your conclusion is that wealth equalizing is bad, then you're going to work backwards and believe that systemic failures of Capitalism don't exist, and how can you support that idiotic notion? By believing technology isn't causing the game to be continuously and increasingly rigged against the little guy.
It's a human response. And humans are kinda shit.

Yep, me too. It is obviously wrong argument anyways IF you believe singularity will happen at some point. With superintelligence on tap humans will be just bunch of moody toddlers in comparison. Why would you let us do anything at all?

I think he said that because he is working in Google. It seems like all tech people say the same thing. Maybe they are scared that people will start to blame tech giants if they say that AI will take jobs. That is only reason why I can think why all the tech people say this.

Yeah! I saw OpenAI's CEO say the same crap, something like "this will augment productivity, it'll be a companion to all developers...". Man, you are talking about a software that can code without a human! WTF?
So I am shocked and disappointed at the lack of honesty. The people working on these projects know that speech is full of shit, right?

Well, it will, only now you will need 1 dev instead of 100. Ask illustrators in like a year or 2...
FML, I thought software development will be the last job to go...I may be sooo wrong (I'm a dev).

Same thing for me, a former full-stack developer. Isn't it crazy? I mean paintings and drawings, and freaking programming? Especially given the state of front development? Incredible times.

Honestly, we'll see. The image generation is a problem where even a very imperfect result is perfectly acceptable. The coding is much harder problem, and then you have to remember all kinds of regulation, etc. But it's coming for everyone eventually. Ironically the physical blue collar trades working in a very heterogeneous environments like a plumber are probably the safest...

Especially since Sam Altman (OpenAI's CEO) has been quite open and outspokenly extremely optimistic on tech progress, talking about things like "free energy" (fusion) and AGI soon, more or less.
He also spoke about UBI and a need to radically change our economy. I wonder if he (and others) have multiple opinions and faces they show selectively in regard with context.

Most probably, it's an obvious CEO trait too.

I hope it's a "Charisma -100 / Perception +100" rather than "Charisma +100 / Perception -100" character trait.

I think you are right and that makes it even scarier...
