I am wonder why leftists are in general hostile towards AI. I am not saying this is wrong or right, I just would like someone to list/summarize the reasons.

Thank you for the explaination, by leftists I meant the ones I met most frequently, that is, the lemmy community :)

See to me, Lemmy at its most left barely qualifies as left wing from what I see.

I've seen a lot of people cosplaying as leftists here, but prick an American leftist and they typically bleed a fascist.

What would you consider 'left' then?

People actually doing something instead of raging on social media to "raise awareness". People actually engaging the supposed beneficiaries of their (usually middle-class white) largesse. People less interested in labelling and finger-pointing and more interested in getting out there, getting their hands dirty, and helping.
