This is a tool for the bourgeoisie to minimise the contributions of human workers so that their political power, which draws on public perceptions, is reduced. If everyone thinks it's all run by AI, they're going to be confused by the idea of giving more pay to the workers. What workers? This makes it harder for workers to advocate for themselves and make demands.
It may be that, but a lot of people seem to be interpreting it as "oh look AI is shit, it'll never replace humans" when in actual fact its a headline that's saying "30% of the human workers have been replaced by AI for this use case"
