People compare AI to the automation that happened in e.g. car factories. Lots of people were put out of jobs, and that’s just the way things go, they say. But the difference is that automotive automation does create way more jobs than it de

I mean, just to steelman the argument, the "market" hasn't had time to react to what LLMs are good at, so your rebuttal falls flat. I think the original statement is more a prediction than a statement of current affairs. Also

Your list of examples is telling; all those things do indeed make life easy. But is easy equivalent to good? I don’t think so. People have more capabilities to connect, and have more “friends” than ever before, and people are more disconnec

This is the most important and impactful decision that an average person (i.e. all of us here) will make regarding the quality of his mental life. This week I ordered a SIM card compatible with my Nokia dumb phone. I have a smartphone for w
