I came to the comments to say basically this. I have read and heard takes similar to OP's probably 50+ times from different people in the last few months (and years, now), and I agree mostly. But I can't get over the myopic nature of this perspective. Technological advances often change the nature of work, and therefore change the nature (or location) of the "struggle". I can imagine some hunter-gatherers probably admonishing early farmers at the dawn of agriculture for losing the "struggle" of hunting and foraging for their own food. It's much easier to drive a car than tame, train, and ride a horse. And so on throughout time. So now with AI, some things that were hard before are now easy. So we move on to the next hard thing that maybe before was impossible or unimaginable. There is still hard work to be done. | ||
