It's "I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes." Whic

It's "I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes."
Which is a stupid argument, since there is "any tech" that can do your laundry and dishes, and it's been around for decades! Is it too hard for you to put your dishes in the dishwasher, or your clothes in the washing machine?
And I say this as someone bearish on AI.

No. Is it a substantial time sink, and one that (in the case of laundry, particularly) breaks up flow, so that it is inconvenient for someone who has to deal with $DAYJOB and those chores and wants to do art and writing (or other personal projects that take focus)? Yes.
- gosub100 2y agoThanks for correcting the quote, it's been a while since I read it. Yes I struggle with doing chores, mainly because there is no reward and they are tedious and boring and I'd rather spend my time doing interesting things. But AI can't do that for me because it's more profitable for them to use the technology to steal.
