Will power seems to have become the new differentiator.
replyThe ??? is capital power. If both human mind and muscle have lesser value then what matters is the capital you possess. Can be financial capital or other kinds of capital. Indeed this is the default in many less developed countries.
replyYes, if you look at the examples the author used such as Indian cotton or tobacco as drivers of increased voluntary labor, both of those carried immediate intangible value as status symbols or bragging rights on top of their material value. It further stratified society which led to more people wanting more stuff and... on and on. What is this cognitive surplus value going to bring? I don't get it.
replyI guess their point is that, for example-- instead of requiring heaps of study and a genius mind to learn to how to reverse engineer complex things over the course of years, their intelligence can go to something that... AI can't do yet?
The author declares that it is fully written by AI using a few prompts. So, not surprising that the whole article is so weak at the core.
replyOut of curiosity, where did he say that? FWIW I ran the first half through Pangram (truncated to use free credits) and it said 73% AI, evenly interspersed. (I have no idea how much truncation breaks their algorithm.)
replyI'm curious myself, in fact I was kind of relieved to read a long, well written article and just thought it felt human. I hope I'm right
replyI mean some argue the 3d is creativity.
replyBut I am sure people had the same question marks back then, for what's comes next
For many here the answer seems to be that everyone will be product manager or a capitalist (one suspects the people saying this are product managers and capitalists).
