Even if we don’t die, it still feels like everything is coming to an end.
Everything? I imagine there will be communities/nations/social groups that completely ban AI and those that are highly dependent on AI. There must be something between those two extremes.
This is like saying “I imagine there will be countries that renounce firearms”. There aren’t such countries. They got eaten by countries that use firearms. The social order of the whole world is now kept by firearms.
The same will happen with AI, if it’s as much a game changer as firearms.
I think I understand, we’re discussing with different scales in mind. I’m saying individually (or if your community is a small local group) nothing has to end but if your interests and identity are tied to sizeable institutions, technical communities etc. many will be disrupted by AI to the point where they could fade away completely. Maybe I’m just an unrealistic optimist, I don’t believe collective or individual meaning has to fade away just because the most interesting and cutting edge work is done exclusively by machines.
