Well when the need is this valid, it's hard not to argue for growth. We need AI so we can hire fewer workers, and the workers who remain can deal with another layer of abstraction. We also need AI so that we can drive more engagement on social media platforms, which at least currently seem to be struggling a bit. Nothing will reinvigorate them more than a stream of fantastical content which ultimately carries no meaning. We could use AI to segment people even further: an individual meme could be microtargeted and modified at the individual level. Everyone could get their own jokes, opinions, and ideas, nigh-individualized and wholly unrelatable!
The idea that mere power generation is holding up this clear advance in technology is baffling. We've got to build whatever it takes, just so long as this AI revolution isn't allowed to flounder.
