You see, AI increases productivity SO much that you need to work twice as long as those non-AI troglodytes, and we'll fire your ass the second you finish training this model that will replace you! Isn't it a wonderful opportunity? INNOVATION™!!!

Funny how the astronomical increases in productivity since the industrial revolution never translated into more pay for less work unless workers violently agitated for it.

It's almost like forfeiting your rights to your work is making you vulnerable to exploitation...

Hmmm...
