Can you hear it? That sound? The luddites are coming for you. What was once fashionable, is now distasteful. Y’all had the chance to do some good in the world, but you’re just too transfixed on “the next thing” so numbers go up whether it’s good or bad.

Well, guess what? The worm has turned. Geeks tried, and failed, because your narrowly educated myopia can never see the big picture. Always looking no further than the screen in front of your faces.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Not an original sentiment, but an honest one: AI has killed the fun of technology for me. From early childhood onward, technology enthusiasm has been one of the defining aspects of my personality, affecting everything -- profession choice, hobbies, etc. Now, for the first time, that's changing.

(The economic side of this is also turning me into an unwilling Marxist, which I think speaks to the point being made in this article. Whoever tapes into this feeling will win big.)

> Which Party Will Benefit

Benefit in terms of election wins, campaign finding, or "other" financial incentives?
