> So many, yourself included, have this perverted view of the world where there's no way it could exsist without our current monetary system I don't appreciate this assumption; lumping me into a group of characters based on nothing I've said / something you have assumed, based on no evidence, is quite counterproductive to a healthy conversation. If you're going to try to make an argument at least base it on the content of my post and not some inference you've made based on nothing I've provided. I'm sympathetic to your situation, and do wish you the best in staying on your feet. And I am quite, quite far from a capitalist / capitalist-apologist / what-have-you. It sounds like you're talking toward using AI tools to effectively "duplicate" yourself, to reduce the scarcity of your own time. I hope I'm interpreting that correctly. I'm 100% on-board with letting the computers do the work so we can all go off and enjoy our lives. It's dismaying that "productivity increase" means "do more in the same amount of time" instead of "do the same in less time and then go live." This is still a far cry from duplicating the creative work of others (cloning a performer's ability, potentially for profit), and it's still got nothing to do with actual "artificial scarcity." Again, this is real scarcity. There are only so many hours in a day. You only have so much brain power to expend within those hours. These aren't pro-capitalist statements and I'm not insinuating that anything follows from them. I'm only being pedantic here. :)
