Maybe because the goal of feminism is to have more equally not to bolster the ranks of marginalised people with even more women.

Maybe if men wanted to have more women in these jobs they shouldn’t be so fucking hostile and sometimes dangerous to women.

Maybe if men hadn’t built a society with only men in mind, including when designing equipment, procedures, etc., for these jobs, maybe women had a better chance doing them?

Today?? This is an issue, especially on the meme communities here.

And that’s the irony of the meme, isn’t it? I am guessing it was done by a man.

Shitty sexist meme.

How could they forget Pascal :/

38 m^2, 2 rooms, 1 bathroom, 169000 € in a rural part of a bigger city in Western Germany.

That’s an exception, though. The house is a bit weird since it apparently stands next to a church in the backyard of some other building…

Jep, I bought a Furby when I first moved out. After about 2 months it stopped working (didn’t even drop it). So I cut it open, the cheapest piece of electronics I ever saw for that price tag.

Foreshadowing for what I would soon learn about the adult world in general.

The average user of Lemmy has more empathy with a two times convicted rapist than with Amber Heard or that one woman from this atrocious Tiger King series.

Jep, Not even two years for his second rape.

Murder doesn’t get laughable sentences. Like under two years for a repeated offender.

Murderes also normally don’t have a whole bunch of people online rallying behind their right of redemption. It’s only rapists who get this and suddenly everyone turns into Jesus online and demands the victims better forgive them!

Why is this “especially relevant to rape cases”?

What do you think can restorative justice look like for crimes like torture (that is what rape is)?

“Trauma is part of life”? Murder and dieing is also part of life. Sorry, but that just doesn’t make sense. Trauma in a clinical sense is certainly not “part of life”.

There is no reason why rape is judged much less severely than torture though.

In the absolute majority of rape cases there is no bettering themselves happening because the rapists never face any consequences to begin with.

It’s usually some rant about “brains are just probability machines as well” or “every artists learns from thousands of pictures of other artists, just as image generator xy does”.

With the difference that the industrial revolution created a lot of new jobs with better pay. While AI doesn’t. I see people suggesting that this has happened before and soon it will turn the economic situation into something much better. But I don’t see that at all. Just because it’s also a huge revolution, doesn’t mean it will have the same effects.

As you have written, people will have to switch into manual jobs like layering bricks and wiping butts. The pay in these jobs won’t increase just because more people have to work them.

Your fear is in so far justified as that some employers will definitely aim to reduce their workforce by implementing AI workflow.

When you have worked for the same employer all this time, perhaps you don’t know, but a lot of employers do not give two shits about code quality. They want cheap and fast labour and having less people churning out more is a good thing in their eyes, regardless of (long-term) quality. May sound cynical, but that is my experience.

My prediction is that the income gap will increase dramatically because good pay will be reserved for the truly exceptional few. While the rest will be confronted with yet another tool capitalists will use to increase profits.

Maybe very far down the line there is blissful utopia where no one has to work anymore. But between then and now, AI would have to get a lot better. Until then it will be mainly used by corporations to justify hiring less people.

I’ve often seen people on Lemmy confidently state that current “AI” thinks and learns exactly like humans and that LLMs work exactly like human brains, etc.

What is “too far” though? Is raising your children to follow specific religious rules already too far? Because I think it is, but many others think that’s okay. What about expecting your surroundings to accommodate your religion? At what point exactly is that going too far?

EA allows people to create games who normally wouldn’t have the money to do it.
