I've been hearing of a bunch of sales. What projects were they??

I sincerely believe that if people were paid more equally, you'd fix the majority of the problems in every country the workers live. Life would be better for everyone, except the one CEO (who would still have every chance to live a great life).

"AI" means too much to mean anything. There's elements of technology that are good and many that we are so much better without. I'll toss this baby with the bathwater.
