And I'm grateful that I grew up and studied in an era when learning to read, write, think critically, and be self-sufficient was considered indispensable. All of that long-form work now delegated to an AI was core to developing the very "creativity" that AI now is supposed to enable. Somehow, a lifetime of crappy jobs "prompting" a computer doesn't seem terribly creative or fulfilling. These AI agents seem like they're not far from being able to prompt themselves. And you just know that the equity-stake Übermenschen who own these technologies won't magnanimously distribute their trillions, either.
Best,
Tim
