The article title is very click baity, but I found the actual discussion and reasoning for why this will happen and how it can be stopped to be thoughtful.
While I do agree with a lot of the points made in the article, most of them seem rather basic stuff that everybody has been talking about since AI has started to rise. The tool isn’t necessarily the problem, it’s the capitalist incentives for which it is created and used that drive us further towards dystopia. I found it rather funny to read a former exec criticizing capitalism. I wonder what he’s up to now?
Also, both the year 2027 and the timespan of 15 years seem confidently pulled out of his backside :).

If you want us to actually read the article, you should cite something adequate from there. Most people don’t care about clickbaity articles because they are almost always shit.
Excerpts are for people who ask nicely and obey the rules of the communities they’re posting in :)
This is such a measured response, I love you for it!
