It's already happened to a degree. People used to need to birth their own personal/family workforce (to work their land, for example). That was the main purpose of children. The idea that children are for some kind of top-of-the-p

There are many destructive processes happening in the post-reproductive years that we don't have names for yet and unfortunately have been referring to as "aging". But they are disease states as much as any other. There is li

Step 1: Create a world that pressures young adults away from traditional milestones Step 2: Blame young adults for spontaneously avoiding those milestones for no reason except their own moral failings There used to be intense social pressur

Not sure if this was the goal, but it does work well from a product perspective that Nova is a super-cheap model that is comparable to everything BUT Claude.
