Damn it! Last year I upgraded to blockchain PC since my original Cloud-Native one was a disappointment.

Crypto as currency = good.
Crypto as investment = bad.
First one is technological progress, the other is a Ponzi scheme.
Not in a million years. The next generation will though, they won’t see any issue with it.
I guess they will anwser such calls with AI to get a summary anyway...
Great points overall. I guess previous generations thought that a hand-written letter cant be replaced by a digital one, yet here we are.
Let's say that there is a single player MMO where all the other players are played by AI, but it is done so well that you can't really see the difference from real-human MMO players.
Would you play this? I would not. The fact that there is a human on the other side is important, even though it does not make any practical difference. Same with birthday wishes - that's way Facebook did not automate "Happy birthday!" even though it could.
Would you upload your personal data and voice to Open AI for it to make a a birthday wishes call to your mom? So convinient! She won't know the difference, and you get a 5 bulletpoint summary afterwards! Such a hellscape.
Adding AI is like adding a lane to a crowded street. It will move more cars per hour, but the street will soon have the same traffic jams as before.
Workers will be as busy and as overworked as before.
Plus, even though people theoretically do more, it is not really more. For example Digital Signage - before generative AI you would put in some text, a clipart or a stock image and call it a day. Now one may be expected to polish the text with AI plus generate a more fitting image. Does it make a nicer Digital Signage? Sure. Will productivity actually go up? I doubt it.
I'm on page 449 and there is nothing about banning contraceptives.

Bank ordered us a stupid high amount to loan. We thought it was stupid high and used just half of it. In do happy er did so.
I think the biggest benefit is for people that cannot code or are just learning. Before a python script to do X or Y was a real problem. Now it is easy.
Plus it may help with Linux adoption - LLM can describe few commands in terminal plus some text config easily, but will struggle with Windows-like graphical configuration.
I think they dont care on purpose. Dual boot is a gateway drug, so the more problems with it the better for Microsoft.
