It's hard to quantify how "different of a person" you are. But if there's one thing reading psych literature taught me it's that traits like aggression and compassion (or lack thereof) are measurable and shockingly persistent in people over decades.
Circumstances, triggers, and incentives change wildly. The world is in flux. But people's attitudes generally are not.
The only reasons to not prefer working for a machine are
a) you don't trust its value function to be just, or
b) you believe it will be just, but you would rather cheat people by taking advantage of human faults like irrational emotions and imperfect memory
We can argue about a) but I can't respect position b).
We've gotten to a point where regardless of who's in the right, the most (only?) effective way to attack a huge company is controversial allegations posted under the veil of anonymity. Regardless of what (if anything) in these allegations happened, this is costing Uber ridiculous amounts of money and all it took was an anonymous blog post.
I know I'm a horrible person to say this, but if I were an Uber competitor, these posts would be part of my marketing arsenal. If unaccountable journalism produces results, it's going to be used. If it isn't already, it will. There's too much money and not enough risk in it.
And the only way to fight against this is to not let yourself be part of outrage culture. We have evidence-based courts for dealing with these things.
