This is the take that drives me fucking insane...
We're not just going to roll over and AI just overtakes the world... That's not how this is going to work. We have ChatGPT that hired a person to beat a captcha and that TERRIFIED many top level AI developers and now there's this proposed moratorium until we discuss as a species how to move forward. Seriously, people think we're just going to attach AI to the nukes and end the world? Fear mongering and problem-focused thinking does nothing but stifle progression. If there's a problem, we fucking SOLVE IT. That's what we do.

Yeah, what you can do about it is benefiting from the excess productivity and do what you want... Something that isn't work lol.
It will take drastic socio-economic change but that's the ideal to strive for.

You're conflating a natural law with something that is inherently not natural and in fact a system like this imposes a lack of a need for selection.

Why does it matter if you re-create it? Someone else isn't making that thing for the purpose of making money, they're just making it because they want to.
I argue that the entire concept of economy and currency will die.

Those resources will be acquired, refined, manufactured, and delivered by automation. Where is this 'economy' deriving a transaction from? There will be no economy, there will simply be automatic production and people doing what they want imo.

This feels like baseless fear-mongering to me. The implication that we'd allow a system like this to exist or to exist with that kind of total control over us is bonkers.

If we can eradicate the concept of currency and status/class shortly after the imminent reduction of all labor and work through automation we'll be fine. Unfortunately all of the people with currency and status are the ones that control policy.
Frankly I think we'll get to the point where the rich have all the resources and the poor begin to starve, and there will be some... rapid and violent changes. Hopefully the world survives that change.

Mechatronics/Automation tech has a 100% job placement in my area, also the degree I'm pursuing. Look at placement numbers from your local universities.
I think you already know philosophy isn't going to pay the bills.

Stuff like self driving tech? Because it would be amazing and preserve somewhere around a million lives a year (worldwide auto accident deaths) once it's universal...
Engineers with time and freedom create incredible things.

Okay I'll be very specific.
The increase in mental load due to socio-economic and emotional dynamics that didn't exist when we were fucking cavepeople.
Better?

You're right-wrong.
There are fewer pressures for survival which caused great stress, that is correct. In that regard we have made life easier PHYSICALLY. There are also massive societal and moral pressures now, which didn't used to exist, and our lizard "Fight-Fly-Freeze" brains can't handle the complexity of that, so anxiety results because we feel like there's a threat, but it's only someone societal or moral and we can't simply fight or run. This made life much HARDER mentally. We shifted the burden from what we weren't good at to what we were, from our bodies to our brains. As a species it's the right course of evolution, a creature can continue to procreate regardless of how ridden with mental illness it is...

Reply to Do you think BluRay DVDs are the final form of physical media? Or will a new physical media format come to be, and what would that look like? by Daveyb003
Nope, we'll have NAND media like the Switch game SSD's. You'll have a miniaturized case just like the switch and a tiny little pinprick of a NAND data device with a movie on it. As long as there are old people there will be physical media.

So that's where people are limiting themselves with their lack of imaginations. Any instruction you can think of, it will attempt to follow.

You can also tell it to write dialogue between two characters and give context information. You can tell it to describe a setting. Basically anything you could ask a person to come up with on the spot it can do.
I use it not as an absolute truth, but instead a starting point for whatever I'm doing.

It's made my life better. I use it constantly for electrical calculations, some research to point me in the right direction, also for synopsis of cool new dnd campaigns.
The point is to put it to work.
