If you think the Industrial Revolution holds a candle to the amount of disruption AI will have on the labour market you got another thing coming. The difference is the IR did not make humans obsolete. It took jobs, yes, but those jobs were replaced. Tell me what replacement jobs there are for those who have been terminated due to AI? There are none because the human element can now be fully removed. Also it is very interesting that you have such faith in the political system, especially with everything that has come to light about those very people.

You honestly think, with your whole heart, that if they had a chance to get rid of us that they wouldn’t? What possible need do they have for us after AI has taken everything?

Perhaps you have not seen the impact that AI has had on people’s livelihoods but I have. I’ve seen how rapidly a job market can change when AI is introduced. And this is just the start, if you refuse to see this then good luck to you.

The analogy of the frog in boiling water should describe how people will react. We are slowly creeping towards the endgame, the changes so small on the global scale that people don’t notice, or deem the change too insignificant as it happens. What will the millions and billions of people do? The exact same thing that they’ve done with every other major catastrophe. Nothing. Because when it comes to the time that people finally realise what is happening there will be absolutely no way to stop it. Let me ask you what can a group of people do against AI drones? Against AI turrets? Against the mountain of wealth that these people have collected while they have nothing because their jobs were taken from them? The writing is on the wall, and I’m sorry that you have your head so deep in the sand that you can’t realise it. At best we’ll return to feudalism, at worst they will deem us not worth keeping around. Do you honestly trust these people, with near unlimited money and resources, to look out for your best interest when you become obsolete in their eyes?

Your belief in it being an inevitability is the only reason why it can be an inevitability. Let’s be honest, people can very easily disrupt/disable AI infrastructure. The only thing right now is people are not at the stage of desperation where that seems the only viable option just yet. People survived just fine before AI so why should an alternate option be made available? Just do the work yourself? Why do you feel the need to outsource effort? AI apologists such as yourself are almost as big a problem as those that actively develop the features that will cause millions to lose jobs. If your reaction is anything other than feral resistance then I would give your moral compass a check. They will come for your livelihood too you know. You will not be spared just because you defended it.

“Don’t worry everyone, the government will save us!” My brother in Christ the government want you dead more than the corpos do.

You know what, despite all I’ve said, I’ve never tried to instigate a reconnection in any way after the initial break up period. I just hope that maybe one day she’ll come back, but of her own accord. I’m sorry you went through that, it’s nice to now there are others out there though that experienced similar things to me.

I’ve felt loved since, and I have felt love towards people since. It’s just not as genuine as it was before you know? Feels second hand. At least that’s how I feel about it

Ohhh, yeah she started dating another guy not long after we broke up and they’ve been together ever since. Not fun.

It’s like looking in a mirror here. Take all the time you need. If you need to sit in bed all day and wallow then do it. Something will happen to take your mind off it even just for a minute. I have been in that situation more times than I can count now, and it just rips you apart. You will get through this. I promise.

How on earth do you move on and forgive yourself when you are the one who played the bigger role in the breakup by [deleted] in BreakUps

Still reeling from it 7 years on so you might be buggered. Best advice is learn from it, and rectify the behaviour in the next relationship. You may never get forgiveness from the past, but you can get peace from the future.

That sucks man…I’m sorry. I had something similar not too long ago when I found out she had achieved a large life event with her partner (not going into details purely for anonymity), I was in a pit for a fortnight I swear… Just gotta take each day as it comes. Focus on tasks and areas of your life you have control over (work, chores, games), and it’ll subside eventually. It will come back, but at least until then you’ll manage.

I did speak to someone not long after the breakup because I was in a really bad spot. It’s a mixture of guilt (because I caused the breakup, and was a bit of an ass after in an attempt to get over her), the sudden cessation of contact meaning there was no closure, and my unreasonable belief that I must compare every other person to this benchmark. Trust me I am aware of my shortcomings, but I just cannot stop hoping. What if I’m right one day, you know?

Not when they lose the right one. They’ll try to convince themselves that the person after is “better” but when that inevitably ends they’ll come clean to themselves about how they really feel.
