This excerpt from one of my old articles Dirty Work and Feminism still speaks for me.

"Unfortunately, just like the early feminist movement, out-of-touch, inexperienced, navel-gazing elites are driving workforce norms, practices, and labour policy. For example, instead of improving the workplace and eliminating “dirty-work” Mark Zukerberg built Facebook, Jeff Bezos Wal-Mart-ed the living f-ck out of small businesses, and Elon Musk took a thousand years of technological progress, plus a few billion tax dollars and sent his cherry red Tesla Roadster into space.

If working people were to decide how AI would be put to use, would we choose more advanced washing machines and cars, or would we choose to put AI to work doing jobs that are breaking our backs, shortening our lives, and making pain our way of life? Would working people choose more plastic surgery, dental implants, and designer clothes, or would we choose to put AI to work building affordable homes, schools and hospitals, and providing dental care for little children and toothless seniors?

I know what I would choose, what about you?
