I am begging you not to believe gazillionaire baseball owners when they tell you Skubal going to the Dodgers means we need a salary cap. Competitive balance is not the reason they want a salary cap. They just want to spend less, and with more predictability, on total payroll. That is all.

This isn't the first time someone's pointed out that AI is an easy-sell because white people (in particular) still want to be able to enslave others. It's a very persuasive argument, especially when you listen to how AI users frame the "benefits" of usage.

But the biggest difference between a machine and a person is *moral consideration*. A person deserves and demands moral consideration: for their wellbeing, their feelings, even their bladders. A machine gets none of this: you can curse it, kick it, snap out orders without please or thank you. 12/
