i think those who had backlashes against machines and automation in the past would be similar tbh.
It's because when people feel, even if remotely, their livelihood going down the drain, they do anything and everything to fight it (even if it would be against the interest of overall progress - nobody wants to be the "sacrifice").
They were not just fighting for their livelihoods, though; the fight was at least as much about dignity and fair treatment.
And they were correct to do so: skilled workers who lost their work and ended up in industrial employment did not have better lives. It took a century to a century-and-a-half for industrial quality of life to get back to pre-industrial quality of life.
Loss of dignity is something that the AI industry is not considering as it renders entire swathes of the economy button-pushers for chatbots.
When loss of livelihood appears it will be too late and at too great a scale to fight back in the workplace; the fightback will be somewhere else.
