From my PoV you are trolling with virtue signalling and thought terminating memes.. You don't want to discuss why every(?) technological introduction so far has ignored priorities such as your sentiments and any devil's adovocate must be the devil..
The members of HN are actually a pretty strongly biased sample towards people who get the omelet when the eggs get broken.
Do you think the industry will stop because of your concern? If for example, AI does what it says on the box but causes goiters for prompt jockeys do you think the industry will stop then or offshore the role of AI jockey?
It's lovely that you care about health, but I have no idea why you think you are relevant to a society that is very much willing to risk extinction to avoid the slightest upset or delay to consumer convenience measured progress.
If you are going to sell shovels for a gold rush its pretty silly to keep rational market compatibility on things like prices, defect rate, packaging, correct contents.. Probably better to spare the brand (for a reboot?) and also not compete as much with all that junk when it shows up again on eBay.
Health and safety seems irrelevant to me. I complain about cars, I point out "obscure" facts like that they are a major cause of lung related health problems for innocent bystanders, I don't actually ride in cars on any regular basis, I use them less in fact than I use AI. There were people at the car's introduction who made all the points I would make today.
The world is not at all about fairness of benefits and impacts to all people it is about a populist mass and what amuses them and makes their life convenient, hopefully without attending the relevant funerals themselves.
You should maybe read some articles about modern situations where people dodged conscription before assuming what is practical today. The average person who hasn't thought about it for a week is certainly in trouble but..
The tax rarely exceeds 1% because kantons wouldn't rather derive a larger portion of taxes from wealth tax or because any higher rate still flat across all wealth would cause assets that don't have yearly income to be regularly sold to avoid complexity in holding them?
Sure but tax on wealth is a tax on the integral of gains and trying to imagine a tax only on realized wealth seems like it would interest Switzerland but is difficult with real estate and stock markets.
