Leeway ought to be given for people actively losing work to A.I. in the here and now. It's easy to deride the horseshoe makers for losing work cause the car is here, and cursing the car and so on, but we have to remember that for every couple of dozen of hobbyists or professionals who are still gainfully employed, there's someone out there living off of art commissions whose been losing business and going hungry over this.

Of course, long term, this is for the best, and the genie is out of the bottle anyways. This is inevitable wonderful progress that we should all be happy for.

Let's just not forget to have sympathy for people whose lives are genuinely being made more difficult in the here and now.

Course this only applies to those folks in particular. The rest need to either shut up or prepare for when it's their turn to feel automation's cold warming embrace. No sympathy for people who are actively seeing the writing on the wall and assume that complaining about the inevitable will somehow stop it from coming to pass.
