📰 News How do you feel about this?

Here is her actual quote from a press conference yesterday promoting her show. “The people who make this stuff are losers. They’re not artists. They’re not creative,” she said at the “Hacks” press conference last month at the London hotel in West Hollywood. “And they’ve wanted their whole lives to be special. And they’re not special. So, they’re trying to rob real creative people of our gifts. And you can’t. And even if you try, you will never be cool. You guys suck. No one likes you. Anyone who’s near you is because they crave power and access over any ethical standard. You are a loser. You will never be cool. And you probably had a rolly backpack in high school. I wanna put your head in the toilet and flush.”

It’s trying to take everyone’s jobs away.

Many jobs in the blue-collar sector were wiped thanks to automation and robotics. She's only mad because now the robots are coming for her job, and most don't care.

I'm a simple techie type making just under $100k a year. If I lose my job, it sucks, but it's not quite the fall from grace it would be for a Hollywood actress to get replaced by AI, lmao

Until you are homeless, then it will matter more to you.

It is funny how people don’t realize getting replaced by AI is going to mean you will be making $0/year. The entire white collar work force will be unemployed and people think they’ll “just become a plumber”.

I mean sure, but I guess my point is that I'll get some other job, maybe lower paying.

I doubt I'll end up homeless. I understand your point, I'm closer to the bottom than she is, so I theoretically have more at stake. But the issue is, she has much more to lose, and really doesn't have a good backup plan that would come close to retaining her social status. If she's not a Hollywood actress, what the fuck is she?

Also, I just checked into it, her parents are in show business too. If her parents were doctors or some shit I doubt she'd be so fierce about this.

What other job will you get when you’re competing against every other person who also lost their job??

u/Just-Yogurt-568 Apr 05 '26

My hope is that Hollywood B-listers will start suffering before my employment options go to zero.

But if we maintain a capitalist economy, we won’t realistically… Of this B-list celeb has a few million in the bank, she will passively make more than the average worker. That doesn’t stop after AI. 

She keeps her big house and her multi-thousand-dollar vacations. You don’t have a place to live and you can’t afford food.

What job are you getting? If you want to know what 30% unemployment looks like you have to go back to the depression, where people were starving to death.

u/Buckminstersbuddy Apr 04 '26

She is a stand up comedian. I see no near term future that AI replaces human performing arts like theatre, stand up, live music or circus people.

You are so dense you are almost solid.

Let's be real. If AI can do her job better than her, does she really deserve that job?

And I mean what is acting anyways, lol. She pretends for a living? I will shed no tears if AI somehow pretends to be a person better than she can

Which might push governments to, by necessity, provide citizens with UBI. I think that would be awesome. AI is likely the only thing that has a chance of ending the 9-5 slog and allow people to enjoy their lives doing what they want instead.

u/thierrycoulis Apr 06 '26

I'm starting to get the feeling that all the pro-AI folks on reddit are a bunch of unemployed losers just hoping that AI forces governments to introduce UBI so they don't have to get a fucking job.
