Please stop. I don’t want an AI summary of my Google search. I don’t want an AI summary of the text message from my friend at work. I don’t want an AI summary of the email I’m about to read. Please just stop.

society will just reform around. These people think they're like LoTR elves or some shit except they're quarter as hot and would probably get killed if losers didn't agree to their payroll as security.

Who are these AI companies even making products for man? Like what is the end goal.

People are getting laid off or unable to find employment. So not like they're in this economy.

@hermetic_honey "I will die for my wife."

Ok, but will you take out the trash for her? Will you do dishes without having to be reminded? Will you take over for her with the kids if she hasn't slept well?

Dying is easy. Effort is hard.

Most people in corporate seemingly have no wisdom to question what AI has meaningfully changed in their lives besides repeating the phrase "omg. it makes works so much faster" ad nauseum. And then what? You are still working 12 hours a day Morgan. You are churning out more sure.
