"real ai" isn't a coherent concept.

Turing test isn't a literal test. It's a rhetorical concept that turing used to underline his logical positivist approach to things like intelligence, consciousness etc.

Ux is not about drawing pictures. That work is already automated by ui kits anyway. Ux is about thinking through requirements and research.

Brockman was also taken off the board so this seems unlikely.

And your ancestors also subsistence farmed and didn't have all the technology you do.

Look I'm as big a critics of our modern capital-industrial system as the next person but it's crazy to not see how technology has made people more productive and given us more wealth.

Also the idea that peasants had lore days off is sorts debunked: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/kks6tq/comment/gh4oh5c

It is however quite true that people during the industrial revolution itself were working way more hours than previously which is why the whole labor movement kicked off. We appreciate the gains of previous ancestors fighting for our labor rights.

Could things be better? Certainly. Is automation being maliciously targeted towards art and creativity at the expense of not increasing productivity and reducing drudgery? No.
