Horses and humans. For a long time, the oligarchs and wealthy classes in every country bred, fed and maintained their equine populations. They earned a living by providing a service to the wealthy, which was transportation. Horses became specialized in certain things like fighting in a war, pulling carriages, etc… and some more than others were more highly valued and traded as workers to other companies (wealthy families and businesses)… They needed horses to do all this work so they expanded the horse population. By the 1900s, it was massive. The horses themselves were worth so much money because of the labor they provided the wealthy classes. Then the automobile was created and suddenly the wealthy didn’t need the services anymore. It didn’t take long for the world equine population to drop substantially never to recover.
Horses were tools that were fed and tended to in service of the economy, and would procreate as much as their circumstances of food and care allowed them.
Many humans are seen as tools to be fed and tended to with respect to their service to the economy, and will procreate as much as their circumstances of food and care will allow them.

This is what the wealthy want AI to do to you
Well put.
Humans need not apply.
While i dont really like AI, the horses and humans are little different.
Horses were tools. More adept parable would be cars were to horses what petrol engines were to steam engines.
People are not just going to stop procreating because ai takes their job.
Isn’t “I don’t have enough money to raise children” a common saying? I seem to hear it IRL and on lemmy or elsewhere

Horses are living animals, just like people. Do you think horses chose to mostly stop procreating because cars took their job?
