So what's the job that you'd be hoping to get to sustain your hobbies that is immune from AI takeover. Please tell me? I am a creative type that became a commercial SE to actually fund my lifestyle. I don't expect to just mak

I understand that you can't afford it. I have been a poor hobbyist before. I've been so poor I had to try and do all my projects on an overheating piece of hot garbage government issued laptop and I felt very hard done by for bein

Humans becoming basically obsolete and our whole system of society collapsing allowing only the owners of closed source AI systems on incredibly expensive servers to make money, throwing the rest of us into destitution.

Electronic music can involve virtuousity and high levels of knowledge and skill. If you actually learnt about electronic music production you would realise that as a whole its pretty highly technical and actually requires knowledge not only

Very real and pertinent example. Being big in EDM now is 100% about being a constant networker. You have to go to every party, know every person and have a massively professional social media presence and a conisistent flashy image to have

I do think music is slightly more immune to this than some other forms of art because music is usually so tied to a personality and a physical presence that there will be ways for artists to overcome this to some extent.

Yet another reason why we should be skeptical about AI and stop these companies from accelerating their monopoly of markets using it. The only way that AI can be good is if we all have equal opportunity to participate in the revolution. Oth

No. Smaller creators of art gain their markets through uniqueness not through how easy it is to create. If music is a commodity that does not require a personality or skillset to produce, then the individuality of artists becomes irrelevant

You are exactly why this is a problem. By creating demand for this soulless music we will be inundated by it everywhere. Also all small musicians will basically have to give up because no-one will even bother to save up to pay them. Absolut

this is another reason why as a gifted kid who became lazy and average I feel like every effort I make now at 25 to improve myself is honestly just too late. In 5 years I will be irrelevant.

Oh I mean that makes perfect sense. You're agreeing with me. Caffeine and sugar give you dopamine. Of course those with low serotonin are likely to have low dopamine - being depressed makes you not want to do stuff. And I can also unde

This is an amazing website. It's horrible that when asking educational questions you will absolutely never see these websites. Just the same horrible quality ones that are trying to take all your data and advertise to you.

Erm a lot of things. Diet and exercise are literally key. Diet less so, I can be depressed with a great diet. But with adequate sun exposure and exercise it's pretty hard to be super depressed unless you have a serious chemical imbalan

It's dopamine that ADHD lack and that you get from caffeine and sugar, not serotonin. People who are depressed do lack serotonin though yes. And you can have both. You can't get that from caffeine though.

Absolutely. People act like we can't or shouldn't seek both technological and social advancement. Social advancement is the key difference between a dystopian and a utopian technologically advanced future.
