@theluddite For these Tech Bros "automating what we currently do" is an euphemism for "outsourcing tasks to people for the lowest wage possible" 😩

@guru haha yeah I didn't say anything about whether they actually succeed in automating, though if you don't see the people doing the outsourced work as people, you did automate from an internally self consistent point of view.
