Songs: AI Guy

notes / gigs / releases

Published by Wipe Out Music Publishing

I went to a work conference and sat next to someone who confidently explained how AI was going to "liberate" everyone from "mundane tasks" and it seemed very much like he viewed all jobs done by people who weren't him (i.e. all jobs) as "mundane" and "uncreative" and he didn't seem to understand why that might annoy people. It also reminded me of about thirty years ago when we were told that increased use of computers would mean less work for everyone, when it actually meant loads more work for everyone as we'd all need to work in massive IT departments fixing things.

So I wrote a song about it - take that, robotic overlords of the future!
