Are you suggesting the ‘line must go up’ mentality only emerged after the advent of AI?
Idunno man, sounds like you’re trying to shift the blame from AI inducing psychosis in people ( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12712562/ ) towards the people affected by it

No.
I’m mad about the misrepresentation of psychosis

Ah, ok. So for my next question, why is seeking infinite growth not a psychotic delusion?
Gap@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You’re making the assumption that all “bosses” mentioned in the article are people seeking infinite growth.
You’re making an assumption about a group of people you know nothing about and trying to link them with people suffering from psychosis. Essentially grouping “people suffering from psychosis” together with “greedy CEO’s”. Whereas greedy CEO’s could also simply be narcissistic, selfish or just evil.
By grouping them with psychosis sufferers you’re denying the sufferers their humanity.

a state of distorted reality, marked by disturbances in perception and thought, disorganized behavior, and negative symptoms
Ticks those boxes

Or they’re lying for money rather than suffering from a mental condition.

No, like the article said: “it’s not as if the current industry problems are unprecedented, or came out of nowhere. Since the advent of modern capitalism (and likely a long while before that), those in charge have often misunderstood, underestimated, or dismissed the hard work that goes into labour they don’t understand.”
This and a tendency to abuse workers have always existed. Management isn’t the victim here, the AI has just removed the limiter, such as it was.

Did AI remove the limiter? Or is it actively pushing people towards delusion by agreeing with whats being said and validating the persons delusionary thoughts as how reality works?
