    I don’t understand the point of this besides “AI bad.” It’s clearly articulating how AI is useful, and humans can be dickheads. Why is this a comic?

      Check out the 6th frame again. That seems to be the author’s viewpoint.

      In my interpretation, it’s less about “AI is bad” and more about an employer’s need to turn employees into mindless instruction-following drones. It overlaps a bit with Doctrow’s thought that your boss wants to replace you with AI not because it’s better or faster, but because you will tell her/him that they’re an idiot for doing something stupid.

      TL;DR: humans have free will and were born to create and impart their ideas upon the world, not blindly follow instructions.

        I’m so tired of these people just latching onto whatever the popular thing is now and drawing it to ad nauseum

        They complain that AI turns everything homogenous, but the last few of these types of comics give seen all have the same exact punchline. Make it make sense

          “Make it make sense,” he says, parroting a popular phrase he’s repeatedly seen on the internet, as a criticism of too much repetition on the internet.

            The struggle against humanity’s relentless obsession with Jean-Paul Sartre comics ends only in the sweet repose of death.

            On the other hand, without the bath of Jean-Paul Sartre comics in which we are all immersed, would I have the freedom to reject all these Jean-Paul Sartre comics?

          I’d say the comic wants to justify a general citizen’s income while machines do the work. It doesn’t say it but that’s the conclusion
