If these compassionate souls are so concerned about job losses, perhaps they should focus on the job-market effects of AI and automation?

When huge swathes of the population are steadily becoming useless it does tend to reduce their wage-negotiating power. Gloating articles like this are to be expected.

I'm not so sure they're concerned with job losses. The article seemed more in the I-told-you-so motif than one of actual concern.

Yep, I was trying for sarcasm above with the whole 'compassionate souls' thing... nevermind.
