We will have to agree to disagree.  You, and many others, support many products that costs jobs.  TurboTax reduced the need for a great many CPAs.  Technology rolls forward and yes it comes at a cost.  

This is not the same thing as Turbo Tax. Not even close. 

An AI could destroy the need for accountants period, Turbo Tax did not do that. 

People who think this will just be contained in a few industries and obviously won't affect their line of work are lying to themselves. 

I won't be supporting it and once people actually realize their own jobs will eventually be at risk, there will be mass protests in the streets to stop it and if governments won't listen to that, then eventually violence will follow. It's inevitable. 

I won't be supporting game developers that destroy the lives of thousands of people just "for graphics". Sorry. 

Lol, if you say so.  TurboTax absolutely reduced the need for accountants.  Same with excel.  Same is true for many other technologies.

Big games aren't going anywhere.  We will see a raise in developers tools and AI modeling to keep costs down.
