> because AI is inevitable.

is anyone else weirded out by folks chanting this like a mantra? imagine saying this for any other emergent tech. "NFTs are inevitable", "crypto is inevitable", "excel is inevitable", etc.

inevitability != usefulness/profitability

Yes, you are not alone. It's a religious-like ferver that is downright disturbing.

The "I" is doing a lot of work there, heh!

"I've stolen more lines of code ..." would be closer to honest.

Do you say that to yourself every time you stream music?

What about the labor you steal from the milkmen, butter churners, seamstresses, and elevator operators? How evil of you.

And yeah, I did it. Not you. That money would be in your bank account if you did it. But you didn't.

I personally make these things. I'm not ashamed in the least to say it, because it's true.

It's funny how I'm working around the clock using AI. Because you seem to say this isn't work. And yet I've never been so busy. So can you tell me what's going on here?

How did I manage to build so many useful things for people?

I've had over 40 million downloads of my app recently. Maybe you should think about how people value things instead of relying on your own value system. Your priors might be flawed when it comes to how the rest of society values things.

In fact, I tell myself I wrote it! I've never composed more music since I started prompting streaming apps.

(Did you walk into that one by yourself, or did you have help from Gemini?)

I'd better join you while you run around in circles, otherwise I'll be left behind.

It’s nice that you’re excited about automating your job, best of luck.

I don't exist to have a job.

I want to bend the universe. Maybe that's the difference.

Living the same way we did in the 2010s until retirement seems boring as hell. That was the depressing reality. This is way more fun.

I learned programming to do this stuff. Programming was the necessary evil. Now it's gone and I'm 1000x faster.

		> I want to bend the universe I want to live a life that makes the people I love happy, makes me feel healthy and happy, and hopefully learn some cool things and skills along the way. Bending the universe sounds predatory, like exerting what you want onto other people without thinking about what they want

NFTs and crypto had little to no use outside of their niche.

Excel was inevitable. How many trillions of hours has it saved?

AI is going to let me do your job and barely lift a finger. Therefore, inevitable.

These are thermodynamically favored technological outcomes.
