Your comment seems loaded with purposefully inflammatory language intended to align AI with groups of actual real people who experience prejudice in the real world instead of corporations who have a vested interest in not paying artists, and brother, as a trans person, it makes you look like a real silly goose.
Pointing out that someone justifies if they like something or not by who made it, vs by judging the item being made itself, is inflammatory?
I remember back in the 80's where people were hating on a Top 40 song because it was made by a group who's singer was gay, and thought that was very wrong, that the song itself should be judged on its own merits, and not by who was singing it.
Weird how those lessons learned fade away, needing to be learned again.

AI isn't human. Stop pretending it is. AI takes advantage of humans. Your argument is invalid.
I did mention previously about "in the future", some day, not today. LLMs are not AI, at least the kind of AI that I'm talking about.
But even taking your point, do we let a human always keep a job that an AI can do much for efficiently? What job protections should humans have from AIs? And for that matter, what job protections should humans have today, right now, regardless of AI? (For the record, I support Unions.)
We all need to figure this out, right now, as corporations are salavating at the though of an AI that can replace a human being's job.

No amount of passage of time is going to make AI human. You all suggesting that in the future AI will have feelings and emotions and will care that people are prejudiced against it. You are arguing against a hypothetical that you have created in your head and isn't necessarily going to be a reality.
No, not at all. I'm saying that future AI will not just be dumb LLMs, they'll be more like functional code that can literally think for itself. That it will be able to create and learn (like humans do) to do jobs, and do those jobs well. Robots with brains, etc., like you see in the movies.

And you won’t have to pay it anything. So it will put actual humans that need to eat to live out of jobs and out of homes.
Meanwhile it used the hard work of those humans to “learn” from, being the ultimate capitalist tool. Lets steal the labor of the masses in a way that makes sure they are never properly compensated for that labor again.
You are arguing in favor of technofeudalism.
No, I'm not, at all.
I'm arguing against prejudice, and for starting NOW to play how real AI will be used in our future society.
Personally, I believe in unions, I'm not looking to replace humans. But I sure as hell know that CORPORATIONS are looking to replace humans (and increase their profits).
So just trying to "stiffarm" pre-AI today via prejudice is not going to cut it. And that's what I see people trying to do, its irrational and unproductive. "Sticking your heads in the ground" never works.

Possibly, although I seen no evidence that that is an inevitability. But even if it becomes reality we can change our association with AI then I don't see any reason to do anything right now.
I have yet to see any evidence that we are in any way progressing towards that world.
You haven't been an observer of humanity then. They have quite a track record (see "Etymology") of how they interact with new technologies and new ways of being.

Okay I read that Wikipedia article and I absolutely no idea what point you're trying to make.
Did you read the first paragraph in the “Etymology” section?
