As long as the focus of being alive is to make money, AI will be pertinent. âI need some text/a picture/some code right now to do a business thing and be richer.â
But, life is about the road, the journey towards inevitable death - not how much money you accumulate. So art, creativity, expression, surprise are all part of a rich, full life. So AI fulfills a part of existence that is, at its heart, unfulfilling: business.
AI is just an extension of the techbro flex of self-driving cars. Both are âsolutionsâ looking for a problem, but are really just a niche - useful in a focused, defined arena) product that coders are working on just to prove that they can. The difference is the amount of resources (land, water, electricity) that the current scope of AI demands. Itâs like filling up your pantry with baking powder: yes, I can see its application, but itâs not for everything and in the meantime itâs screwing up everything else that needs to happen.

Did a world wide 24 hour hackathon on Saturday, vibe coding with AI and found out I was ranked in the top 33%. Not bad for an out of work, semi-brain dead old fart.
Dawkins spending his entire career berating basically pretty normal people for being so stupid as to believe in God and then immediately giving himself Roko's Basilisk Derangement Syndrome after talking to the AI catgirl waifus is just the funniest shit.
