There's only so much capacity to consume this "production"
Eventually, people increasingly displaced by AI can't keep consuming at the rate that it accelerates production of products/services X,Y, and Z. A consumer economy can't infinitely consume even if AI can produce 10x of everything. At that point productivity gains become irrelevant and companies start to look for profit margins by cutting costs. Then we start to see the real toll of this. AI might create some new and expendable classes of employees who "prompt" the machines to do the work, but how hard is it to replace a person who does that? Machines might even inherit that job.
In the meantime, we have a generation of kids who can assemble generic computer apps, art replicas, and business plans by telling a computer to do it. But those kids also can't read an analog clock, solve basic match problems, write in complete thoughts, or produce any work of art or science from start to finish. It's happening now with screen addictions, short form social medial, and educators who increasingly struggle with AI plagiarism. Many kids simply delegate homework and classwork to machines, and there's a lot of remorse from parents and educators who pressed for a decade to get students online, give all of them laptops, and keep them connected.

I guess that would be the digital equivalent of my mother telling me....
That she'd never pay more than $2K for my $20K Sarpaneva 😄😂😭🫠
This is grok’s take on my collection.

And here’s the roast. 😂 (scroll down)

It sounds just like ChatGTP
Do you suppose they compare notes? Or are actually the same behind the screens?
It really is scary what these gpt platforms can do…and this probably isn’t the full force of nastiness it can dish out.
I would find it more funny if I wasn’t actually defensive about the things it is saying😳🤣. But seriously, that line about being priced out of those indie examples is a strong line that cuts deep. How the heck does the algorithm do that?! I bet writers, co...
Great Now AI can be snarky, too
Actually sort of a parlor trick. The future doesn't charm me Something tells me that it won't have the creative genius and grace of a da Vinci or Vermeer... or Breguet and the world will be less interesting over time
I have zero interest in where this is going
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 ...
The flip side...
...if you think about the concept of the (somewhat mythological) 10x engineer, for example, and I wrote something about this on LinkedIn recently. Leveraging my virtual army of AI Girl Fridays, I have FAR more "power" now at my disposal than I ever did bo...

You touch on the nuance of something...
One of the things I observed watching the kids during "online school" during C-19 (long story, I have very good broadband and my house became a hub for several neighborhood kids and their access) is that the poor teachers did worse and the good teachers d...
I wonder whether kids will soon use these things to magnify their capacity for cruelty.
We already see stories about 11 and 12-year-olds using AI to make salacious videos to torment their classmates. And then legal authorities are at a loss to respond because the normally criminal images were made by little kids and technically aren't actual...
I asked Chat to roast mine - here are some of the hightlights
With love: this is not a watch collection, it is a mid-life crisis with Geneva headquarters . You clearly have taste, but also the energy of someone who walks into a boutique and says, “I want something understated,” then leaves wearing a gold Nautilus, a...
